PS Vita uses AMOLED Screen Technology

[Canonbeat234]

So the screen has the same resolution like that of samsung products like smartphones and tablets.

Edit: What I'm typing is that Sony fans will still buy the PSP Vita even without the AMOLED screen resolution. AMOLED screen is a good touch but it just makes the handheld be compare to the smartphone, Xperia PLAY.

this makes it even more mobile. i had this issue with the ds screen alot. hardware and sony is always 100% compatible.

Now I hope for Matte screen-filters for the Vita.

Nice. AMOLED screens are great, should be a nice addition to the device. Although I personally rarely have problems with the screens on my PSP or DS.

My sister's Samsung Galaxy S AMOLED screen looks amazing!

Woot!

What about Super AMOLED like the screen my Samsung Epic has?

EDIT: From what I gathered, AMOLED screens aren't really visible in sunlight but Super AMOLED screens are. I think.

As long as there's an improvement over current LCD technology in glare reduction, I'm sold

I can already see so many people playing Vitas here (PSPs are ubiquitous).

Still with Samsung (and other companies - Nokia?) widely using AMOLED screen on mobiles and always improving on them (now you have Super AMOLED Plus), this is not really shocking if it were true.

I'll wait for Sony to give official word on this though.

Super AMOLED or Super AMOLED Plus, that is the question.

w00t, just like my Nexus S.

New screen technology is nice and all...but I don't really care if my screen looks pretty when the content is crappy. I am hoping to see quality games released for the vita. The iPhone app store for games is full of trashware. (yes you can find decent games, but a game that can entertain you for 2 minutes does not mean it has quality) I just hope our old pals Nintendo and Sony don't think they can get away with that bullsh*t.

I'm throwing money at my screen, and nothing's happening...
I even chucked my 3DS at it and then it broke. :'(

Sony Singapore still has it as OLED. Weird.

 

[rook2King]

Awesome. Hopefully this doesn't jack the price up even more though.

I never heard such thing that Sony is going to use Samsung's AMOLED screen. Even in official site says OLED screen is gonna be used.
I wonder where they got this info.

 

[MrCooper]

It comes out in two months from now and I have seen nothing on the US playstation site about this.

 

[impizkit]

This is exciting news. Still want to actually play one to see if I want it. I have steered clear of the PSP, but this might sway me from the N handhelds.

They said they got it from

A report from a Korean newspaper reveals that the Playstation Vita uses Samsung's AMOLED screen technology.

I'm definetely calling fake on this, Sony already said it's OLED, doesn't seem they will be changing their mind.

Samsung is a Korean company, it would make sense. Plus OLED doesn't rule out Samsung's AMOLED screen, it's still a type of OLED.

But Sony would rather proudly declare AMOLED, right?

I don't think it's real. Every Sony here still has it as OLED. Perhaps the AMOLED is for another device.
