What happened to the RED Hydrogen One?

Why manufactures should advertise the amount of subpixels and not pixels. Pentile vs RGB

Have you ever noticed that an IPS 1080p panel found on an iPhone Plus model is much sharper than a 1080p AMOLED panel found on most OnePlus models? As we know, most manufacturers advertise the amount of "Pixels" on their screen, but not every pixel is equal as we shall now see. If we consult the image down below we see that: 1 Pixel on a RGB IPS LCD contains 3 subpixels (R,G,B) 1 Pixel on a Pentile AMOLED contains 2 subpixels only (2 out of R,G or B) The result of that is, that in an 4p x 4p array of an LCD screens there are 16 pixels * 3 subpixels = 48 subpixels In the same array; an AMOLED screen contains only 16 pixels * 2 subpixels = 32 Subpixels This means that the total count of Subpixels (Which makes for the sharpness of the screen) of the Amoled is only 2/3 of the count of the LCD. This is obviously very noticeable. Here is an image that might make it more understandable The whole "Pixel count" thing is therefore misleading and manufacturers shoul...

Don't all messaging programs do the same thing? Why does everyone prefer iMessage? Thanks for the helpful responses, everyone! What Android apps exist that can send directly to iMessage without someone having a WhatsApp account or a similar account?
