The scientist / photographer Bryan Jones decided to analyze the screen of the Apple Watch 42mm (which has a resolution of 312 Ă— 390 pixels, with approximately 326 pixels per inch) under a microscope and photographed everything for those curious about planting. The watch has exactly the same pixel density as the iPhone 6, but the difference in the layout of the subpixels is clear.

Apple Watch Pixels
IPhone 6 pixelsWhether due to the difference in technology itself (the Watch AMOLED display, while that of the iPhone LCD) or something purposeful, to increase the black area and save battery or have a great contrast ratio (which the Watch really has), the truth is that the area occupied by a pixel much smaller than in the iPhone 6.
This photo, with a smaller magnification, shows better how the pixels blend together to make a white image.
Here, with the help of indirect lighting from optical fiber light, we are able to visualize the components sensitive to the touch (or pressure, we don't know) of the watch.
Incredible amount of technology that needs to be developed so that we can use products like an Apple Watch
