It looks like smartphone screens are continuing to get larger. Now that 4.3-inch displays are now becoming the trend, the next big trend may be 4.5-inch displays. That’s not a bad thing as Hitachi has developed a high resolution 720p display in the larger 4.5-inch form factor that’s capable of rendering 1280 X 720 pixels for a smartphone.

Additionally, the Hitachi-made screens would be an IPS display, which would allow for a wide viewing angle like that on the iPhone, and would be a backlit LCD display panel. … Glasses-free 3D on this display would be using lenticular lens technology rather than the barrier approach for improved quality–the HTC EVO 3D employs a parallax barrier technology.

With high definition 720p video watching capabilities, Google’s Android video rentals cannot come soon enough.
