DisplayMate specializes in performing extensive display
tests, and with the Apple Watch being one of the most
important products of the year, the display experts didn't
pass on the opportunity to take the Apple wrist piece for a
spin. The experts have tested the 42mm version of the
Apple Watch with a sapphire glass cover, but we tend to
believe that most of these conclusions will also apply to the
38mm versions.
On the 42mm Apple Watch, the OLED display measures
about 1.53 inches across the diagonal and runs a resolution
of 312 by 390 pixels at 326PPI and an aspect ratio of 4:5.
The display experts found that the Apple Watch display is
highly similar to the iPhone 6 display in areas such as
density, artifact-free pixel reproduction, color reproduction,
and color accuracy.
According to the report, Apple has opted to include a very
aggressive automatic brightness system in order to reduce
power consumption. Users can select the brightness as low,
medium, or high, but there's no absolute manual control
over the display brightness (as available on the iPhone 6, for
example). While the automatic brightness system works
well in low-light situations, in bright sunlight, the system
translates in less-impressive measurements in key
departments such as contrast ratios, color accuracy, and
viewing angles. For more details, make sure to check out

Another conclusion that the experts have drawn is that the
sapphire glass used in the Watch and Edition models nearly
doubles the amount of reflected light. Since the glass
material is the only thing that differs between the three
Apple Watch models, and not the display itself, this could
mean that the best viewing experience is offered by the
Apple Watch Sport thanks to its less-resistant Ion-X
strengthened cover glass.
