Is a smartphone with 2K resolution worth it? Sony says no due to excessive battery consumption

LG G3

Here perhaps we can get into a controversy, since, while the technology in smartphones advances by leaps and bounds, batteries are lagging far behind. It is difficult to see new news where it is claimed that the battery of a smartphone has been improved so that it lasts several days giving it full use.

Now comes the evolution in screens with two important smartphones, such as the LG G3 and Note 4, with their incredible screens and that resolution that is on everyone's lips, such as Quad HD or 2K. The same LG in the presentation LG G3 it was excused that the impact on the battery this new screen could have With a higher ppi, it was solved with a better performance of the phone when it comes to knowing how to manage the battery, but when it comes to reality, either with the special battery modes of both LG and Samsung, the hours that we will have ahead phone usage will decrease.

And it is not only Sony that has come to the fore, but it has been the same users. In the case of the LG G3, even if it has a almost minimal consumption when the screen is off, when you are using that you can tell.

Calum MacDougall, Sony's chief marketing officer, commented: “perhaps the most important thing to say related to the display is what we haven't done. We have decided to continue with the 1080p screen for the Xperia Z3, although we see part of our competitors in the market bringing 2K screens. The reason behind this has been for three reasons. The first, being small screens, is quite difficult for the human eye to discern the difference between 2K and Full HD. The second is that the user experience for users is minimal. And third, it is for battery consumption.»

MacDougal goes on to explain the last reason: 'We believe that the main part of the user experience is to have a battery that lastsAnd if we think we can bring you a big screen with Full HD and Sony technologies, we don't think it's fair for our customers to offer them a 2K screen with its extra battery drain.»

The question now would be the one that you can answer below. What do you prefer, a smartphone that I spent the day more than nearly 2, or a screen with 2K resolution?

    2k in a moivl is the same as a 4k TV, without content of that resolution you are making the date.

    I think that the gentleman of Sony is absolutely right on such small screens one does not distinguish a 1080p screen from a 2k one, and knowing this would not sacrifice battery life for a resolution on a screen that almost does not appear.

    I have a G3 and although it is true that there is not much difference it is also true that the battery lasts more or less the same as that of a z2 or an S5.
    For this man to say that is a good justification for putting a cheaper screen and that it seems that it is an improvement.
    Answering a popo, the G3 also records in 2k and well, there are already an infinity of 2k televisions on the market at an acceptable price, it is only a matter of having the need to buy a television.
