The image looked really good on the new console, but we were not sure about the display technology used.
Since the announcement of the new model for the Nintendo Switch family, we have been getting information about the features of this version with OLED display of the Nintendo hybrid, but also many doubts have arisen. Not all OLED screens work with the same technology and by not specifying what type of panel Nintendo would use exactly, some suspicion arose.
One of the most worrying options was that he could ride a display with Pentile technology. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this technology, Pentile is a Samsung trademark that encompasses various sub-pixel matrix designs that are often used in OLED panels. Pentile refers to incomplete RGB, where the red, green, and blue sub-pixels are shared between pixels instead of having pixels with all three colors.
Pentile displays are cheaper and more durable, but less sharpPentile screens they are more economical and durable, which has made them the favorites of most mobile device manufacturers on the market, although as a disadvantage, they distort and blur the image in front of the Full RGB for more clarity. This effect is lost as we have a higher pixel density, a problem that begins to disappear in phones with high resolution screens and more compact sizes than the Nintendo Switch screen.
However, the Nintendo Switch OLED screen is 7 inches with 720p resolution, with these figures a Pentile screen could have been a problem. The Verge has been in charge of taking some macro photographs of the screen of the new Nintendo Switch to determine that, the new screen features full RGB technology and not Pentile. In the analysis of the design of the matrix carried out, they have determined that it is an unusual design, very similar to the Apple Watch. We have also known these days that your new glass screen incorporates a screen protector that we should not remove.
