Samsung Galaxy S5 Rumors: Device to Feature Display with 560ppi
The Samsung Galaxy S5 rumors have pointed to the company improving various aspects on the flagship including the camera and processor.
Now it seems Samsung will also bring great change to the displays on its devices.
The company held its first Analyst Day event in eight years where it introduced some of the new technology it will use on its devices starting in 2014.

Displays will be greatly improved next year as Samsung will introduce AMOLED panels with pixel densities of up to 560ppi. This would allow Samsung to blow past HTC who currently has a device with 469ppi with the One handset.
This would also see Samsung move from Full HD on its current handset to WQHD or 2560x1440 pixels.
Samsung also hopes to take it even further by having UHD, otherwise known as 4K displays on its devices starting in 2015. A display with a resolution this high on a smartphone could prove unnecessary in terms of experience, but it is still a great selling point and a way for Samsung to outpace the competition.
Some of these displays will also be bendable as Samsung introduced the flex technology this year on the Galaxy Round.
Samsung also plans to release smartphones with 16-megapixel Isocell sensors. The technology will reduce the amount of light that bleeds to neighboring pixel which will improve sensitivity and image quality in extreme lighting conditions. The company's first Isocell sensor will go into mass production by the end of this year.
Samsung executives confirmed that 64-bit chips will also be installed in devices next year.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 is the company's successor to this year's flagship and is rumored to launch as early as Jan.
