These days, manufacturers are coming up with new business ideas to popularize the acceptance of smartphones in the remotest corners of the country. While a good marketing can boost chances of success, if done in a right manner, but at the end power packed performance of a smartphone matters most to users.
When consumers trust a brand, it makes them loyal, and when they are loyal, they buy more. When Apple launched the iPhone 4 in 2010, the folks coined the term "Retina Display" for incredible sharpness. Since then the company has been focused on churning high-quality displays ever since.
2014 is shaping up to the year of QHD displays. Initially started by an unknown Chinese handset maker, and now South Korea's top companies like LG and Samsung are ready to take this display tech to larger heights.
As a consumer you'd be curious to know more about QHD displays (2560 x 1440). Basically, Quad HD (QHD) comes with four times more pixels than a 720p HD display. It's so easy to compare. Just imagine comparing the Moto G's 4.5-inch 720p HD display against the LG G3's 5.5-inch screen (2560 x 1440).
Of course there are advantages attached when buying a QHD smartphone. However, at the same time, it is natural to assume that more pixels means more frames - so the phone's battery life would also be badly impacted.
Handsets with high-resolution displays seem to be a norm. Thus, based on the current trend, we've have come up with top 5 smartphones that could sport a QHD screen. Take a look into sliders below!
