title: RGB 565 - Why 6 Bits for Green Color
body: <p>I was checking different <strong>RGB</strong> formats and i was wondering why in the RGB-565 to the green color are assigned 6 bits and to the red and blue 5? Is there any particular reason behind the green color or is it just an esthetic choice for the sake of symmetry (<strong>565</strong> instead of <strong>655</strong> or <strong>556</strong>)?</p>
