Sharp now manufacturing 5-inch 1080p displays for Android smartphones

Sharp announced in a Japanese-language press release earlier today that it has begun mass production of a series of 5-inch smartphone displays which will bring desktop HD resolution to mobile devices. The displays will max out at an impressive 1920×1080 pixels—the same resolution as many HD televisions and widescreen computer monitors—and with a dot pitch of 443 PPI, they will hold the top spot for the highest pixel density ever featured on a smartphone.
