Popular display types include In-Plane Switching (IPS), Thin Film Transistor (TFT), and Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode (AMOLED). Colors are brighter in AMOLED displays and blacks are darker. IPS screens are cheaper to produce and display natural colors while AMOLED colors tend to be over-saturated. IPS displays the whites better but has poor viewing angles while whites in AMOLED tend to be little bit yellowish but the viewing angles are better. IPS is preferred by photographers for the natural colors while AMOLED is preferred for everyday regular users. IPS improves on the old TFT technology like Super AMOLED improves on AMOLED

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is a measure of the rate at which energy is absorbed by the human body when exposed to a radio frequency electromagnetic field. The SAR limit set by the FCC/IC is 1.6 watts per kg averaged over 1 gram of actual tissue. Above that would be dangerous to human health

The SAR limit recommended by the Council of the European Union is 2.0 watts per kilogram averaged over 10 grams of actual tissue. Above that would be dangerous to human health

What are the 2G (second-generation) frequency bands supported by the phone? Three primary benefits of 2G networks over their predecessors were that phone conversations were digitally encrypted, 2G systems were significantly more efficient on the spectrum, enabling far greater wireless penetration levels, and 2G introduced data services for mobile like SMS and MMS

What are the 3G (third-generation) frequency bands supported by the phone? 3G was an upgrade for 2G and 2.5G GPRS networks, for faster internet speed. 3G finds application in wireless voice telephony, mobile internet access, fixed wireless internet access, video calls, and mobile TV

4G is the fourth generation of broadband cellular network technology, succeeding 3G. Potential and current applications include amended mobile web access, IP telephony, gaming services, high-definition mobile TV, video conferencing, and 3D television

Does the phone have a built-in loudspeaker?

The audio quality of the phone is determined based on the signal-to-noise ratio, the higher the value, the better, and stereo crosstalk which is a measurement of the isolation between the right and the left audio channels. The lower the value, the better in this case as a high value means there is a leakage of signal from one channel to the other and the stereo effect would be decreased. Both values are reported in Decibel (dB) unit

The most important test for examining the quality of a phone display is the Contrast Ratio which is the difference between the brightest white and the darkest black of the display. A good screen should display the bright colors as bright as possible and the dark colors as dark as possible. For the Contrast Ratio to be tested accurately and fairly, it should be under the sunlight as the sunlight heavily influences the colors so if a display keeps a high Contrast Ratio value while the sunlight is projected on it, that means it's a pretty much good display

The loudspeaker of the phone is tested for the loudness of voice, pink noise, and ringing tones. Pink noise is the background noise you encounter a lot in everyday life like the sound of a fan spinning or a moving train. The values are measured in Decibel (dB) unit and the higher the values, the louder and better the loudspeaker is
