Sharp's new 443 ppi 5inch smartphone displays on show at CEATEC 2012 eyeson

Here at CEATEC, the Japanese display maker is showing of its latest portable screens. Although the vivid 1080p displays were scurried away in the corner of Sharp’s stand, we managed to grab a few photos of its 443 ppi — likely smartphone-bound — tech. From these prototype samples (the screen will go into production later this month), it’s looking pretty good, with Sharp’s thinnest GS-Silicon technology reducing the layers between the LCD display and our eyes. Although we were told not to touch, viewing angles were also impressive — we could see ourselves gazing at YouTube clips on this screen in whichever smartphone it ends up on. Sharp weren’t talking manufacturers just yet, but you can take a closer look in our gallery below.
