The screen resolution boasts a 1440 x 3200 pixels display and the screen serves as roughly 89.8% of the total phone, so the screen is large enough for most uses.

It’s also a feature that has been much improved compared to Samsung’s last model, so the extra protection on the screen is a big improvment. The high quality screen with 120Hz refresh rate is simply stunning.
