8K 9.6inch IPS and 8K 13.3 inch OLED display introduced

[GoodBytes]

I recently covered a 8K 17.3inch 120HZ IPS panel from Japan Display (a joint venture by Sony, Toshiba, and Hitachi).

Today, we have other models by Ortus Technology, a small Japanese company founded 5 years ago in 2010, showcase their years of R&D with 2 new displays.

The first one is an IPS 8K 60Hz panel 9.6inch.

And the second one is an OLED 8K 13.3inch also 60Hz.

Could those be in the next generation of tablets? Probably not due to cost, GPU power required, lack of simple connector to power it, and manufacture success yield will probably be low. Regardless, it is exciting to see what is coming next in the near future.

"I have an 8K tablet"

 

"How much did it cost?"

 

"...8K"

[givingtnt]

that bezel tho

[Curufinwe_wins]

that bezel tho

Well yea... those things need like 3 different connectors to function at all. Plus the onboard controller has to be pretty darn substantial.

This is mental!!! I love hidpi displays but I feel the rest of tech needs to catch up, batteries, gpus, processors, cameras, content services etc

 

 

 

EDIT: would just like to add, I think the tech is amazing, but I think the R&D money could be better spent on more important things that benefit consumers

There actually are connectors that could drive it: superMHL and DisplayPort 1.3 can do 8K@60Hz (superMHL even at 120Hz).

I mean, we have a 4K phone now, so I think we'll get a 8K tablet eventually.

...ok...

We will come 2020, when japan broadcasts the Olympics in 8k and Panasonic plans to release an 8k camera which we will probs see 8k screens for the same price as 4k screens were a year ago. Can't wait hopefully by then OLED will be somewhat affordable as well. (not getting my hopes up for that)

8K on 9.6inch?

Is that how your phone looks? No. Why? High-DPI.

Text gets smoother, images from your camera appear with more details as they fit on your screen, and icons are more detailed. It makes using the device more enjoyable. Things won't be tiny.

motherfuckers make some god damn monitors, not XXL Fablet phone screens

If it runs Windows it will. Because you know, terrible high-pixel scaling.

You have clearly never used Windows with a high-dpi settings.

Please test first, then you can comment. Please stop spreading FUD from others that you read about.

At work I use a 4K monitor 150% DPI setting. I know how well it works. I use it every single day hours on end.

It cannot, DisplayPort 1.3 only supports up to 8K 30Hz without compression. 60Hz support is only with DSC active.

Hah.. that 9.6inch has almost 1000 PPI, that is ridiculous.  I am in love.  

[Sujieun]

Whats the price of these things....

[TechStyle]

$1000 60" 4K OLED TVS PLEASE

Used it on a 2880*1800 screen, terrible experience on native resolution. Could use a magnifying glass. 1920*1200 is good though.

Windows 8 and up adjust the DPI automatically. If you use Windows 7 or older, you can go in the display properties of Windows and set the DPI to an appropriate level.

Win 10 I haven't had too many issues with my sisters "4k" 13 inch Asus ultrabook (same panel as what is used in the xps13), but sometimes everything gets completely fucked up.

 

Pre-Windows 8. lol forget about high resolution. It's awful.

[MegaDave91]

1200p still looks gorgeous on the Nexus 7 2013. This resolution race in palm devices has got out of hand.

What happen exactly?

lol yea i agree. You definitely want Windows 8 and up. Preferably Win10

A program comes up that just goes crazy and is completely unreadable at 4k.  Like text lines all over the place...

Ah. That sounds like a poorly implement high-DPI program. Probably they started something to make it high-DPI and never finished. Poke the devs for fixing it.

Or it didn't have one at all, and the text wasn't properly interpreted by window's attempt to re-scale it. (I generally only see it on old rich gui's)
