I hate the screen...

... because it makes photos look so good that now my computer screen looks like crap in comparison Haha. But seriously it is pretty incredible how good photos look, both high-res ones taken with a different camera and ones taken with the onboard cam.

Only downside is that sometimes I'm disappointed at how dull the colors look when I upload them to Facebook or something.

If i look close at a mostly blank webpage, i can sorta see the pixels in the white/gray areas, but if i switch over to the gallery and look @ photos, or on you tube or something, I dont notice any pixels

It's bad when a Phone screen makes you want to buy a better Computer monitor...

Well, the N1 does have a 100,000:1 contrast ratio which is what you'd normally find standard on new medium-high-end HDTV's with 240hz processing...

computer monitors aren't updated quite as well without being pretty pricey, mine's barely (if even) a year and a half old and it's only 3,000:1 contrast, and I paid around $550 for it. (24" 1920x1200, 1:1 pixel scaling)

If you use your tv as your monitor there's not a huuuge difference

Reason it's far more likely to be better on the phone now-a-days is because new tech like OLED is only feasible in small sizes at a decent cost as well :P

Yeah copy that. I have a 2009 iMac 24" and that thing is crisp but the N1 about equals or just about beats the iMac.

Looks like you have a horrible LCD, buy a real one! 24" from Apple.
