The contrast ratio (CR) is a property of a display system, defined as the ratio of the luminance of the brightest shade (white) to that of the darkest shade (black) that the system is capable of producing. A high contrast ratio is a desired aspect of any display. It has similarities with dynamic range.
There is no official, standardized way to measure contrast ratio for a system or its parts, nor is there a standard for defining "Contrast Ratio" that is accepted by any standards organization so ratings provided by different manufacturers of display devices are not necessarily comparable to each other due to differences in method of measurement, operation, and unstated variables.projection screen or emitted by a cathode ray tube, and the only light seen in the room would come from the display device. With such a room, the contrast ratio of the image would be the same as the contrast ratio of the device. Real rooms reflect some of the light back to the displayed image, lowering the contrast ratio seen in the image.
Static contrast ratio is the luminosity ratio comparing the brightest and darkest shade the system is capable of producing simultaneously at any instant of time, while dynamic contrast ratio is the luminosity ratio comparing the brightest and darkest shade the system is capable of producing over time (while the picture is moving). Moving from a system that displays a static motionless image to a system that displays a dynamic, changing picture slightly complicates the definition of the contrast ratio, due to the need to take into account the extra temporal dimension to the measuring process.
Many display devices favor the use of the full on/full off method of measurement, as it cancels out the effect of the room and results in an ideal ratio. Equal proportions of light reflect from the display to the room and back in both "black" and "white" measurements, as long as the room stays the same. This will inflate the light levels of both measurements proportionally, leaving the black to white luminance ratio unaffected.
Some manufacturers have gone as far as using different device parameters for the three tests, even further inflating the calculated contrast ratio. With DLP projectors, one method to do this is to enable the clear sector of the color filter wheel for the "on" part and disable it for the "off" part
Another measure is the ANSI contrast, in which the measurement is done with a checker board patterned test image where the black and white luminosity values are measured simultaneously.
It is useful to note that the full on/full off method effectively measures the dynamic contrast ratio of a display, while the ANSI contrast measures the static contrast ratio.
An LCD technology is dynamic contrast (DC), also called advanced contrast ratio (ACR) and various other designations. When there is a need to display a dark image, a display that supports dynamic contrast underpowers the backlight lamp (or decreases the aperture of the projector"s lens using an iris), but proportionately amplifies the transmission through the LCD panel; this gives the benefit of realizing the potential static contrast ratio of the LCD panel in dark scenes when the image is watched in a dark room. The drawback is that if a dark scene contains small areas of superbright light, the resulting image will be over exposed.
The trick for the display is to determine how much of the highlights may be unnoticeably blown out in a given image under the given ambient lighting conditions.
Brightness, as it is most often used in marketing literature, refers to the emitted luminous intensity on screen, measured in candela per square metre (cd/m2). The higher the number, the brighter the screen.
It is also common to market only the dynamic contrast ratio capability of a display (when it is better than its static contrast ratio only on paper), which should not be directly compared to the static contrast ratio. A plasma display with a 4,000,000:1 static contrast ratio will show superior contrast to an LCD (with LED or CCFL backlight) with 30,000,000:1 dynamic and 20,000:1 static contrast ratio when the input signal contains a full range of brightnesses from 0 to 100% simultaneously. They will, however, be on par when input signal ranges only from 0 to 20% brightness.
This animated gif shows a rudimentary representation of how various backlight dimming technologies work on TV. Dimming technology can drastically affect the contrast ratio of the display.
In marketing literature, contrast ratios for emissive (as opposed to reflective) displays are always measured under the optimum condition of a room in total darkness. In typical viewing situations, the contrast ratio is significantly lower due to the reflection of light from the surface of the display, making it harder to distinguish between different devices with very high contrast ratios.luminance of the display, as well as the amount of light reflecting off the display.
Today Apple announced not just one iPhone 6, but two, and both are larger than the previous models by a long shot. Unlike the iPhone 5 family, which was a half-inch bump up from all previous iPhone models, the iPhone 6 displays come in two varieties: 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches. Both share almost everything, from the processor to LTE capabilities, but what’s hugely different in the newest iPhone from preceding devices is the display. And it’s not just that they’re bigger.
These newer phones don’t have a standard Retina display, they have what Apple calls Retina HD. The iPhone 6 has a 1335 by 750 pixel resolution screen, which is just over today’s HD standard of 1280 by 720 pixels. The iPhone 6 Plus has a full 1080p (1920 by 1080 pixel) display, and unlike the standard 326 ppi, the Plus has a much more dense 401 ppi.
Both iPhone 6 displays share the same brightness rating as previous models, but what’s incredible is the contrast ratio. Contrast ratio defines how significantly lights, darks and different colors are differentiated by the screen. The higher the number, the better the picture quality. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have 1400:1 and 1300:1 contrast ratios, respectively, and they produce excellent picture quality. For comparison, the previous iPhone 5s had a contrast ratio of 800:1.
Ever broken an iPhone screen? It’s a relatively common occurrence, but it’s unclear whether that problem will be fixed. These new devices will not be built with the rumored sapphire glass, the same material used for the iPhone 5s’s home button and camera lens. That may be a good thing, however; MacRumors reports that recent tests show sapphire may be more brittle than glass, meaning if it’s bent further, it can break much sooner than glass would. Instead, these new iPhones have ion-infused glass, which is supposed to be stronger and more scratch-resistant than the previous third-generation Gorilla Glass, but Apple revealed few details about it during today’s presentation.
Today is the age of 5G. The evolution of technology is happening so rapidly that it has become hard to keep track of. An increasing number of cellular network providers are now moving towards the latest 5G spectrum. This shift is even more visible with the release of 5G compatible devices like our very own iPhone 12.
With so many features now being released in the name of upgrades, this latest release from the house of Apple is simply irresistible. Still, I wonder if someone had to make a choice between its predecessor the iPhone 11, and the iPhone 5 reincarnation iPhone 12, which one would they have chosen?
To find the answer to this question, I compared both the devices and here is what I found. If you are also confused between the two, this article is what you need to give a read.
Considering the table above, one can easily conclude that both iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 share a large number of features like the display, size, battery life, camera and the RAM storage options. Still, there are some notable differences between the two. The Display technology, the processor, and the 5G compatibility to name among a few.
Now this table would clearly differentiate the two devices. Where the camera has been upgraded with Ultra Wide LiDAR and Smart HDR 3 for photography, the RAM and material design has also been improved.
The iPhone 12 is said to be the incarnation of the iPhone 5. With the same squared-off industrial design and a flat aluminum band around the sides, the iPhone 12 clearly distinguishes itself from the iPhone 11, which has rounded sides. The use of polished glass on the rear remains similar on both the phones. The iPhone 12 represents its design as a refinement to the old iPhone 11’s design. This design makes the Phone 12 easier to hold with an improved grip. The design also gets 0.9mm thinner and 32gms lighter than the iPhone 11.
As far as the color options are concerned, the iPhone 12 has got a new color variant in the form of Blue, which wasn’t available win the previous generation, the iPhone 11.
The display on the iPhone 12 is another major improvement I see. This iPhone has an OLED Super Retina XDR display which offers nearly twice the peak brightness of iPhone 11. The display also offers higher contrast values, true blacks, HDR for even rich colors and system-wide color management for industry-leading color accuracy. The news OLED screen has reduced bezels and comes with a stronger Ceramic Shield Front Glass, which offers up to four times improved drop performance. Still, if you are worried about the protection of your iPhone 12 screen, you can check these products out. Check the latest iPhone 12/12 Pro Screen Protectors. The improvements made on the display are among the main reasons why you should get the newer model.
The iPhone 12 comes with the latest A14 processor, claimed to be the world’s fastest chip ever on a smartphone. This processor is also the first to be built on a 5nm process. These improvements make the A14 18.4% faster in single-core performance and 17.6% faster in overall multi-core performance than the iPhone 11. The 16-core neural engine facilitates machine learning algorithms with an 80% increase in the overall device performance. Though the iPhone 11’s A13 cannot be undermined due to these minor differences. The A13 is still capable enough of delivering ultra-smooth performance.
The iPhone 12 has the sub-6GHz 5G as well as faster mmWave 5G in the US. Connectivity to 5G will make the device capable of delivering improved internet speeds, thus making downloads faster and 4K video streaming, gaming, and app experience smoother. You can also FaceTime in high definition and enjoy all the benefits that 5G has to offer over the 4G LTE in the iPhone 11 variant. Adding to that, iPhone 12 also has the Smart Data Mode which helps a user extend the iPhone’s battery life by intelligent assessment of 5G requirements and balancing data usage, speed and power in real-time.
In reality, 5G will only be worth it if one has an eligible data plan and is in a region with 5G cellular network availability. If you are someone who is looking to keep their phones for at least a period of 3-4 years, the iPhone 12 will definitely be a better option.
Though cameras on the iPhone 11 and the iPhone 12 are similar, with a dual 12MP camera system, Ultra Wide and a Wide lens with almost the same apertures, features such as the Night Mode and Deep Fusion are extended to the Ultra Wide and front-facing cameras on the iPhone 12. Also, the iPhone 12 can record HDR video with Dolby Vision up to 30fps and time-lapses with the Night Mode easily.
If you already have the iPhone 11, personally, I don’t think you should plan to upgrade to the iPhone 12 just because it has the A14 processor and the 5G connectivity. Your iPhone 11 is still a flagship device that is more than capable of achieving humungous tasks easily. Wait for the iPhone 12 Pro to be released, and maybe then you can make a move.
Furthermore, if you are on the Android and planning a move towards iOS, or someone who is on the iPhone X platform, I think the iPhone 12 will be a significant upgrade.

An 8 bit LED backlight for an 8 bit LCD. Just imagine the dead pixels!
Putting aside the specialty nature of the Brightside Technologies display, get used to the concept of LED-backlit LCDs. They"ll eventually find their way into consumer level products.
The main 12MP wide lens has 5x digital zoom but if you think you"ll get use out of a telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom and 10x digital, plus optical image stabilisation, you"ll need to go for one of the Pro iPhones.
It"s a 12MP camera with an f/2.4 aperture and newfound 1080p slow-mo skills. Apple also says that FaceID has been improved this time around and the front facer can shoot up to 4K video at up to 60fps, just like the rear cameras.
While the iPhone 11 only sees an extra one hour of battery over its predecessor, the iPhone XR, the more expensive models seem to be doing a lot more work in this department.
The 5.8inch iPhone 11 Pro will last, according to Apple, four hours longer than its 2018 equivalent, the iPhone XS, so it"s good for 18 hours of video playback. Similarly the iPhone 11 Pro Max is supposed to be good for five more hours on one charge than the iPhone XS Max or 20 hours of video playback. The proof will be in the testing but if stamina is a major concern, it"s the Pros that are the worthwhile upgrade here.
It"s good to see Apple bringing its latest CPU, GPU and "Neural Engine" to the cheaper iPhone 11 as well as the £1,000+ options. All three iPhone models run on the A13 Bionic chip, which Apple is pretty pleased about.
Cupertino claims the A13 uses both the fastest CPU and the fastest GPU in a smartphone, something we look forward to benchmarking and testing especially against Huawei"s new Kirin 990. And it"s the A13 that"s responsible for the better battery life in this year"s iPhone cohort too.
That means they"re all splash, dust and water resistant in water up to two metres, submerged for up to 30 minutes. And there"s a bunch more similarities when you dig into the spec sheets: all three iPhones are available in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB models and all three have fast charging up to 50 per cent in 30 minutes with the 18W charger.
So if the iPhone 11 is more your scene, financially, there"s still lots to like. Or consider picking up Apple"s bestselling iPhone XR which is still on sale, now from £629.

Apple defines its restrictions on harmful substances, including definitions for what Apple considers to be “free of,” in the Apple Regulated Substances Specification. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates with the exception of AC power cords in India, Thailand (for two-prong AC power cords), and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement.
The iPhone 8 has a 4.7-inch screen with a resolution of 1334 by 750 with 326 pixels per inch and a contrast ratio of 1400: 1, while the iPhone 8 Plus has a screen of 5 , 5 inches with a resolution of 1920 by 1080, 401 pixels per inch and a contrast ratio of 1300: 1.
Quite a few things have changed since the iPhone XR, but the screen is not one of them. The iPhone 11 packs the same Liquid Retina 6.1" IPS LCD screen with 326ppi and a giant notch on top.
The actual screen resolution is 828 x 1,792 pixels, which is not bad, but not high either. In our experience, pictures and videos do look great on this screen, the text is sharp enough, and most of the time, we didn"t mind this 326pp density. But if you put an iPhone 11 Pro next to the 11, you"ll know you are using a panel of lower quality.
Another thing the iPhone 11 screen doesn"t offer is HDR10 or Dolby Vision - the contrast ratio required by these HDR video standards is only achievable with an OLED screen it seems.
The proprietary True Tone adjustments, however, are available. This is an automatic white balance correction using a six-channel ambient light sensor. The algorithm corrects the white balance according to the ambient light making the whites and grays rendition more accurate.
Just like on the other new iPhones, the touch input has the same 120Hz polling rate for zero-like touch latency. The screen refresh rate is still capped at 60Hz though.
Apple promises a maximum brightness of 625 nits for the iPhone 11 and screen contrast ratio of 1400:1. We measured 644 nits of maximum brightness and combined with the not so dark blacks, the contrast ratio turned out 1500:1.
The display on the iPhone 11 has an excellent color accuracy - we measured an average DeltaE of 1.1 and a maximum deviation of 2.4 against sRGB. The iPhone 11 supports DCI-P3, and it will automatically switch to this gamma when DCI-P3 content is sent to the screen.
One fantastic thing is that the iPhone 11 display keeps a similar level of accuracy even while you are lowering the brightness down to as low as 2.3 nits.
The iPhone 11 is powered by a 3,110 mAh battery - a slight improvement over the XR"s 2,940 mAh and about the same as the new iPhone 11 Pro"s. The phone supports wireless charging (Qi-compatible), and it can also fast charge with 18W chargers thanks to the USB Power Delivery support.
Unfortunately, the iPhone 11 ships with the old 5W Apple charger and it will replenish a mere 18% of the empty battery in 30 mins. A full charge could take as much as 4 hours.
We completed our battery test on the iPhone 11, and it did great. The iPhone 11 can do about 18 hours of 3G calls, 15 and a half hours of web browsing on a single charge, or you can watch videos for about 18 and a half hours. Adding the efficient standby to the mix returned an excellent battery endurance rating of 94 hours - up from 78 hours on the iPhone XR and better than the 86 hours of the iPhone 11 Pro.
Our battery tests were automated thanks to SmartViser, using its viSer App. The endurance rating above denotes how long a single battery charge will last you if you use the Apple iPhone 11 for an hour each of telephony, web browsing, and video playback daily. We"ve established this usage pattern so that our battery results are comparable across devices in the most common day-to-day tasks. The battery testing procedure is described in detail in case you"re interested in the nitty-gritty. You can check out our complete battery test table, where you can see how all of the smartphones we"ve tested will compare under your own typical use.
The iPhone 11 has stereo speakers, just like the iPhone 11 Pro and XR. The first speaker is at the bottom, while the earpiece acts as a second one. The output is very balanced, and the only thing we noticed was the earpiece lack in bass compared to the bottom primary, but its loudness seemed similar.
Apple says these speakers support spatial audio and subjectively the sound indeed seems less directional and more, well, spatial when compared to other phones.
Our tests confirmed Apple is using a proper loudspeaker for the earpiece and it is loud. The 11 Pro Max and the 11 Pro models offer a bit more bass from its top tweeters, and that makes them even more balanced than the iPhone 11 model.
Nevertheless, the sound is pretty rich, the bass is deep enough helped by the bottom speaker, and after playing multiple songs, videos, and games, we consider the iPhone 11 speakers to be among the better setups you can get in a smartphone today.
All three iPhone 11s pulled a Very Good mark in our loudspeaker test, just a couple decibels shorter of the Excellent mark. But having this spatial audio do make the new iPhones sound (subjectively) louder than this test suggests.
Apple no longer includes a Lightning to 3.5mm audio adapter in the retail package of its iPhones, which means that the quality of the audio output you will be getting is entirely dependent on the adapter you get or the DAC built into your headphones if they are of the Lightning port type.
We performed the test using the official Apple adapter, so our findings will only be relevant if you go with that one. Clarity turned out excellent with an active external amplifier, although stereo separation is not ideal. However, there"s virtually no degradation with headphones, meaning that you"d be getting some of the most accurate output in that case.
Loudness was only average though and some way behind the flagship standard these days. Still, that would make little difference to anyone but those with super high impedance headphones and a taste for deafening volume levels.
Apple unveiledits iPhone 12 series earlier today. The new iPhones include a host of changes, including some minor ones. The iPhone 12 sports an updated design, with an OLED display upfront.
