UMI Super reveals SHARP display with the Sunlight technology


Daily dose of the UMI Super reveals is here so rejoice, today they graciously revealed some details about their Super AMOLED display with just 0.001mm thin touch layer they plan to use in the upcoming flagship phone.

The news are centered on the use of the SHARP manufactured screen, which should offer up to 17 % better color saturations than the comparable displays on the market from other producers. Same SHARP displays were already used in some Xiaomi and Meizu models so should be quite enough of credibility in that. And hopefully its uhm going to sharper than sharp, pun intended 🙂

Another interesting piece is the presence of the Sunlight technology, which should improve majorly the legibility in direct sunlight and also allow viewing the screen in NTSC gamut so in other words full color range, because the usual sRGB range (gamut) covers only about 72% of the NTSC range. All the colors which the human eye is able to register should be here then so the diplay should be theoretically more brighter and vivid.

      don’t waste your time …. go look at N4 note by 360.
      its astounding and suspicious why the Mods here did NOT report its OUTRAGEOUSLY UNBELIEVABLE low price and release…

        360 N4 is quite ugly to be honest and their previous phones were very hard to get, like almost vapourware level….

        Sharp has one planned but it won’t be ready till 2018.

            It’s second~third gen of Igzo LCD with IPS AB matrix so it’s pretty much one of the best LCD’s out there.

    Replace the SOC to Snapdragon 652 then you got more international buyer

      too late bro , they’re way past the stage of a permanent screw up. better look towards the 360’s N4 Note , like me.
      you’ll get it cheaper …

      • Tonyle
        May 11, 2016

        wow, 360 N4 would be not the same price when it’s launched in China.

        • Muhammad Yasir
          May 11, 2016

          will still be cheaper than Umi super :p

    come on UMI , the phone’s a miscarriage.
    the P10 is bullshit , its already dead.

    just go to hell with all these nefarious and deceitful gimmicks !

    • balcobomber25
      May 10, 2016

      P10 is the new budget SoC for Mediatek this year, it’s a good all around SoC.

      • Lazar Prodanovic
        May 11, 2016

        It’s a bad & not much competitive one.

        • balcobomber25
          May 11, 2016

          Depends on what you use your phone for. For a lot of people it is more than powerful enough to handle what they need.

        Balco , haven’t we have this discussion like 10 times 😀 ?
        games … this poor baby will not keep up when its stretched … a flagship does not deserve this .

        think of it from a PC gamer’s POV (i know u a console guy but still). AMD’s current FX series , for instance the FX-8320 , BADLY bottlenecks ANY GPU you throw in with it … be it the r9 390x or the GTX 980Ti. those are BADASS gpus but the CPU is holding them back. HOWEVER replace that FX with a skylake i3 oh hell , even a broadwell i5 or an haswell i5 will offer so much gain in performance over the previous setup. the P10 is the bottleneck here , dontcha think ? i know mobiles ain’t exactly gaming PCs … but this was supposed to be a flagship … even dubbed ‘Super’ and yet a budget SoC. y ?

        • Lazar Prodanovic
          May 11, 2016

          Very bad argument. Switch to DX12 or Vulcan & things will change dramatically or encode video & play a game on FX at the same time & you will see a huge difference compared to i5.
          The GPU performance is much more limited with only T880 MP2 I’m this case & memory bandwidth would also certainly help a lot. There aren’t much (if any) complex RTS games for Android to bottleneck the CPU anyway.

        • balcobomber25
          May 11, 2016

          You also get a budget price. In two months this will be selling for under $150.

            hahaha … that’s just because its umi and complete absence of OTAs and after sales 😀

            • balcobomber25
              May 11, 2016

              I got a few OTA’s on my UMi devices and after sales support wasn’t the worst

            • Muhammad Yasir
              May 11, 2016

              really ?
              wonder why so many others bash them for the v.same reasons :/

            • balcobomber25
              May 12, 2016

              I don’t know can only go by own experiences. UMi wasn’t perfect, far from it, but wasn’t the worst company I have used either.

    • Trayanee
      May 11, 2016

      What? P10 is enough for 95% of the users. Its a nice upgrade over 6753 which itself is still at least sufficient. I really dont need another heater, just a working phone…

      Just note I am not an UMi fan. I am pretty sure they will screw up on support and quality control again. I just dont get the SoC hate.

      • Lazar Prodanovic
        May 11, 2016

        It would have been enough if it had Mali T880 – T860 MP4 like Spreadtrum SC9860 along with better media accelerator that will eat it alive.

      • Muhammad Yasir
        May 11, 2016

        Umi Super ? touted to be THE flagship from UMI and they’re using a LOWER MID RANGE SoC on their THE Flagship ?!

        tell me if it makes sense to you…

      • Lazar Prodanovic
        May 11, 2016

        It’s pretty much downgrade over the X10 the same as MT6753 whose downgrade over the MT6752.

        • Trayanee
          May 11, 2016

          You’ve ghot it wrong. P10 is an upgrade over 6753. Nothing to do with X10 which has itzs own upgrade in X20

          • Lazar Prodanovic
            May 11, 2016

            It’s pretty much missed product that have 0 market space left because it’s worse than last year’s X10 & you can find a lot’s of phones with it that will cost less. So MTK shot themselves in to the health leg this time around. Even X10 whose a letdown as they used older Rogue 6200 instead of its more power efficient (40%) redesign brother the 6250 as they advertise in the beginning.

    the minimum is gorilla glass 4, or this screen will break in 10 seconds

    besides that, helio x20 is better then helio p10, because dont sell Lamborghini with Subaru engine

    Talking about the phone display, I like the touch one, I bought one Oukitel K4000 Pro, its display is great.

    picture used in this ad is so outrageous… like “hey you stupid consumers who are buying phones with greyish screens for so many years, comme to us and get some colors on your phone !”

    and then they tell you the difference will be approximately +17% better xD

    BTW i don’t get why Xiaomi and Meizu didn’t make such a noise about this screen when they used it in their latests models.
