Nintendo Co. will launch a new game console this year with an 8-inch LCD screen, according to Omdia analyst Hiroshi Hayase.

The new device from the Kyoto-based games maker will be responsible for a doubling in shipments of so-called amusement displays in 2024, Hayase said in Tokyo on Friday. His research focuses on small and medium displays and he bases annual forecasts on checks with companies in the supply chain

    LCD for extra brightness? I don’t think you’ve been keeping up as mobile OLEDs are usually brighter than mobile LCDs. Not that there are many LCDs left.

    The Nokia XR21 is one LCD phone released in 2023:
    IPS LCD, 120Hz, 450 nits (typ), 550 nits (HBM)
    Another phone with brightness listen on gsmarena is the Oukitel WP30 Pro:
    IPS LCD, 120Hz, 430 nits

    Take a few popular OLED phones for comparison…
    Galaxy S24: Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X, 120Hz, HDR10+, 2600 nits (peak)
    iPhone 15: Super Retina XDR OLED, HDR10, Dolby Vision, 1000 nits (HBM), 2000 nits (peak)

    Or for consoles, Steam Deck LCD is about 400 nits, while the OLED is up to about 600, or 1000 in HDR.
