Apple is now under fire as a lawsuit was filed against the company, stating that Apple lied about the display specs in its iPhone X series. Two plaintiffs filed the suit in the US District Court of Northern California, accusing Apple for falsely advertising the screen size and pixel counts of the display in its iPhone X, iPhone XS, and iPhone XS MAX devices. The plaintiffs are said to be seeking class action status, however Apple have yet to give any respond towards the issue.

According to reports, the suit alleges that Apple lied about the screen sizes by counting non-screen areas such as the notch and corners. So the new line of iPhones aren’t “all screen” as marketed, according to the 55-page complaint. For example, iPhone X’s screen size is supposed to be 5.8 inches, but the plaintiffs measured that it’s “only about 5.6875 inches.”

They’ve also added that the iPhone X series phone have lower screen resolution than advertised. “iPhone X is supposed to have a resolution of 2436×1125 pixels, but the product doesn’t contain true pixels with red, green and blue subpixels in each pixel,” according to the complaint. “iPhone X allegedly only has two subpixels per pixel, which is less than advertised,” they added. The lawsuit also alleges iPhone 8 Plus has a higher-quality screen than iPhone X.

The plaintiff’s lawyers did not respond immediately when asked to comment on this case. To view the full lawsuit, log here : https://www.scribd.com/document/395721345/Apple-Lawsuit#download&from_embed
