Hey I liked the screen on the razr. The colors were much more vibrant and it had deeper blacks. Just because a screen has a higher resolution doesn't make it a better picture. A few years ago I was looking a plasma's tv's. I brought 3 sony lcd 1080p screens I returned them all due to light bleed jitter. After my 3rd one I was all set to get a plazma panasonic Then the sales man says to me take a look at this 720P Pionner. I was blown away buy it. The TV was $2000.00 it has the deepest blacks and the color is awsum. Guess what regular tv looks better also because isn't as much up conversion.
My point not everything evoloves around the resolution. Look a the video contrast the deep blacks the whites and take what you like. While I had my Razr I tired to watch movies on Netflix Even if the high resloution screen your netflix movies are not going to look high def on the phone. The razr is pretty close and truth be told I was happy.
One thing I must warn you about the razr. as reported on other websites there are black blotches (spots) on the screen. But But But at least for me the only way you see them is if you are in a pitch black atmosphere I only saw the blotches while booting up the phone or the screen goes into a very dark sceen of a movie (but you must be in pitch black to see it) I did not notice it while watching movies under nomal conditions. I am the biggest critic in the world and that didn't bother me too much.
Now why did I return the Razr As I said I"m a critic. My old games did not play well on them. Pac man, Ms. Pac man wheel of fortune, and need for speed shift crashed and raging thunder played on a small screen. (I found a fix for the latter which was to download spareparts and uncheck compatablity mode.) My logic was if my thunderbolt can play these games then why am I going to pay $300.00 for less fuctionality. Did I want to give back the phone No. and I'm saddened by it but I havemy princiapls I only hope the game devloper can tweek the games to play on the newer chipsets. BTW MS pacman messed up on the Galaxy nexus also. So these "high power phones" can't handle a low power game
Anyway I'm getting off topic sorry but I'm depressed about the last paragaph anyway back to the screens I agree you have to see for yourself. I also agree you should not base your decision on just screen resolution alone. Dam I saw the samsung charge in the store and that lower end phone screen kicked butt in my eyes compared to the nexus. Why colors and Blacks.....
