Not really. Mainstream Android phones had high density OLED and LCD displays before iPhones.

For example, by the time of the iPhone 8's 326 PPI, LG had the G6 with a 564 PPI LCD.




My LG G3 had a 538ppi IPS display and it is from 2014, 9 years ago.

806 ppi for my Xperia XZ Premium from 2017


...and Openmoko phones had HiDPI screens around the time of the 1st-gen iPhone.
