Should we have additional specification data in the table[edit]
With the change in name from "List" to "Comparison" I was, briefly, concerned that the change might imply we should expand the data in the table to contain additional phone specification information. Would this not be necessary to actually have a comparison instead of just a list? Adding additional specification info about each phone would be a considerable amount of work. There are also the questions as to what and how much additional information is appropriate, if any.
I would say the answer is no. Only if the addition is a specification specific to the display would it be appropriate. The title of the article is "Comparison of high-definition smartphone displays" not "Comparison of smartphones with high-definition displays". The name of the article explicitly limits the scope to only the displays of the smartphones, not the entire smartphone. If there is additional specification data generally available that is specific to the displays, such might be appropriate to include. If other editors feel differently, we can discuss it here.

iPhones[edit]
Why are there no iPhones on this page? Is it just an unintended omission, or is there an actual reason for it? 63.225.137.32 (talk) 17:30, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
Good question. I wonder whether it's because none of them use standard display resolutions? The iPhone 5, 5c, and 5s use 1136x640 displays - outside the scope of this article; but the iPhone 6 uses a 1334x750 and the 6 Plus uses a 1920x1080 display (though the OS and apps are scaled from 2208x1242). The iPhone 6 Plus should probably be on the list and I'll add it, but the iPhone 6 leaves me conflicted. It is a high-definition display, but doesn't feat neatly into any of the boxes. If It goes anywhere, it should be the 720p displays. Thewelshboyo (talk) 13:00, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
