Looks like Huawei is looking back to QHD displays on their devices, despite their CEO Richard Yu stating previously that he’s not in favour of the displays. However, they’re now looking into 2K/QHD displays because of VR.
By the looks of it, its pretty much because they recently announced their own VR headset.
“Last year I would certainly not buy a 2K device as the power consumption was high and the difference to my eyes non-existent. But now I have changed my mind and my next phone will be 2K as I like VR!,” recently said Yu on a post on Weibo.
Does this also mean the next device will specifically be made to be VR compliant? seems to be the case. With VR being the next big thing, we might just start seeing more brands jumping on the VR bandwagon; with Samsung already ahead of the race in the mobile segment.
