Out of interest what was it?
He just said that the people at his workplace were very impressed with the prototype designs and excited about it (in slightly more detail but nothing specific).

I want this phone so badly!! I'm stuck here with a super old Iphone 2G lol. I should get 15% off with my NUS card with virgin mobile.

Looks like the screen we have is literally going to be a beast. News here.

Nowt really wrong with a 316ppi Pentile screen of the Nexus - what was lacking for me was the maximum brightness of only 250cd/m2 where the Galaxy s2 is 350cd/m2 and the One x id 530cd/m2.
RGB is the icing though and I hope the brightness is over 350 cd/m2.

If you like AMOLED screens, then probably, yes.
Probably not, unless you need blacks and hate yellow tones. Power consumption is still a big factor for AMOLED. The smaller the pixel, the brighter it needs to shine. Hopefully they've used a better polarizer system, like ClearBlack, so they don't necessarily need to go above 200nits for the whole panel.
Wonder why no-ones developed a RGBW AMOLED? You'd get perfect blacks, whites, high brightness with relatively low power use.

pro's and con's of both - but both will be top end screens.
Here's a pic of the test mule.

That's not the S3.

^ The SGS2 HD has a 16:9 screen. This one is 5:3*, like the note and SGS2. (Guess it's something like a ~4.5" WXGA, which means it does't need the extra length of a 16:9 for software buttons)
That means it's wider than the One X and too big for me, bah.
Hopefully the smaller I9300 will deliver the goods. (and that horrible leaked pic was just a mule too
)
*Or 8:5/16:10
