The photo shows the new display to be shrink-ed to a smaller 2.8″ display, comparted to another new 3.2″ version also. The current models carry a bulkier 3.5″ screen size. Also, According to the Taiwanese company, the displays have “no significant” aging effect—they don’t get progressively less sensitive over time—and are claimed to be more durable than alternatives, waterproof, plus resistant to high humidities and temperatures.So is it possible that this is real?
