Virtual Reality (VR) is going to be the new reality and is the next big thing for smartphones now.
This week, Samsung already made a move, demonstrating a new smartphone display designed specifically for VR and likely headed to a future Samsung smartphone. According to a report from UploadVR, the 5.5-inch panel packs 3840 x 2160 pixel resolution, making it a 4K class screen. It has a staggering 806PPI, 350 nit brightness level, and can reproduce 97 percent of the color gamut.
Samsung isn't the first display maker to pack 4K resolution into a phone-sized screen — Sony before them had the Z5 Premium last year with such a panel.
UploadVR also reported that Samsung was also demonstrating a new display tech called "Bio Blue" . The technology reportedly emits less blue light than Samsung's own AMOLED screens making it better.
The 4K display is still being called a prototype, but it won't be surprising to find it crop up on one of the more pricey and sophisticated Samsung phones very soon.
