 honestly, not a lot.  if it was only 5 bits per pixel then yes it
would start to be clearly visible as 5 bpp is only 32 shades.  6 bits
is 64 shades per colour.

 yes but the A80 has PowerVR and if you have any sense don't touch it
with a 10ft barge pole.  i'll be waiting for the A70 which i hear is
their planned pin-compatible quad-core with MALI.

 i really want an intel soc but it is going to need a 14nm to make any
sense.  even the 22nm latest intel SoCs are too power-hungry.
