Don't let screen glare spoil your touch screen experience

MANILA, Philippines - Smartphones have indeed become smarter  going from mainly keyboard-based to having a large touch screen-dominated front. 

Advancements in mobile technology have also given way to more cutting-edge displays.

But not all displays on touch-screen phones are created equal. Some mobile phone users still have to contend with screen glare issues, such as poor color display, grayish-colored blacks and scratches that take the joy away from the touch-screen experience. 

But now battling screen glare issues is a thing of the past, thanks to Nokia’s ClearBlack Display feature, which allows the users to enjoy vibrant display on their touch-screen phone without the irritating reflections on the home screen.

Another innovative feature from the global leader in mobile communications, ClearBlack Display allows mobile phone users to enjoy touch-screen display that yields vibrant colors, blacker blacks, and high contrast without significantly compromising on battery life. 

What makes the ClearBlack Display different from the standard displays today is how one of its layers, called the polarizer, is placed. The polarizer is a circular layer that removes undesired reflections. 

In ClearBlack Display phones, the polarizer is placed between the window and the touch sensor, which then blocks off reflection from the captive sensor grid, the tiny dots that show when you tilt a traditional touch-screen phone in direct sunlight. 

By placing the polarizer between the touch sensor and the window, light is diffused and reflection is minimized, resulting in a clearer display where all icons and colors contrast against one another. 

Stamping out reflections means higher visual contrast that shows vibrant colors and blacker blacks.

With ClearBlack Display touch-screen phones, you can use your phone outside without having to squint or tilt and shield the screen when you are texting or simply navigating from icon to icon. 

You enjoy high image quality and amazing color contrast that makes your apps, videos, and images pop off the screen in a stunning manner. More importantly, you won’t have to reach for your charger as often because of the battery friendliness that this revolutionary new display technology from Nokia provides.

The ClearBlack Display feature is available on the Nokia N9, Nokia E7, Nokia C6-01, and the much-awaited Nokia Lumia 710 and Nokia Lumia 800.

The Lumia devices are the only Windows Phones that feature the ClearBlack Display. More devices are lined up to carry this new innovative display technology.
