Am I reading that right, “93%”? That’s almost twice the size . . ?

That’s huge! Hope to see some screens soon

I read that the actual measurement is 4.2 inch for the new screens. That’s more like 43% increase. I’m thinking that 93% is an error.

Hm, yeah, you may be right. The new screens are 4.2 inches.
Oh, and RideZeLitenin – You can see some pictures here:

Actually I’m wrong, 43% increase in diagonal measurement means 93% more total screen area. I’m so bad at Maths lol.
