Display explainedNot enough evidence to score

iPhone 16: Apple publishes 460 ppi and a 2,000-nit outdoor peak, but the checked primary specifications do not give a numeric internal-display refresh rate. The v1 display score is withheld because that required input is unverified.

Nord 5: Published brightness, pixel density and maximum refresh under the existing capability model. This is not a laboratory display rating.
