Sup Z1 owners,
Ok so I went to a store, and bought a Z1. Than I compared to the retail model. And this the result. Sony are you serious, you ruin everything.
Cheers,
If you want post your pictures
My device (I returned already) is on left side obviously and looks sooo ****ty on the screen.
The other screen is awesome! Compared to note 3 its almost as good as note 3's screen
How can i check what kind of displey i got on my z1?

Yea will order a few Z1 online maybe I'll get a good screen.
Screen updates yes it was fixed but some changes gave yellow tint again.
I guess u have to wait for a minor fix.
Trying on debug mode wait.......

Here's a comparison between the bh90f and cb512 the 512 has jdc screen the other has sharp.
Oddly the jdc is the left one, IRL it has nicer greys/whites and no yellow hue.
I had good screen on 534
Became yellow on 257
Did a factory reset, and now fine on 257
Try it, it might work

i just received my xperia z1 today in videos to me the display looked great it must be JDC displays in ever video because my device looks like the picture in the right i have been waiting to receive this phone for a while and now i can say the display does not look any better than my xperia s's i might have to go back to my s4 good thing i still have it i am disappointed with this display
wow, yeah that's what some of yall was referring to with the yellow issue.
Mine def does not look like that.
C6906 bought directly from Sony Store in Canada.
So this is the famous yellow hue in the Z1. Now I can said I am lucky one for some aspects, not all.
you are all seriously out of proportion, first of all, it's almost impossible to tell whether your screen does or don't look like a screen you see through a photo, perhaps your computer screen is yellow!
second it's much easier when you look at it next to another phone.
third, stop the bs, z1 has much better viewing angles than the xz, take one and compare other than that, it is no amoled, can't do **** about it, but when viewed from usable angle (and i mean an angle where you can use your phone, not one that you can see it) the screen is absolutly stunning.
this comes from someone who compares to other friends phone have a tad more yellow screen, perhaps...

In addition to what you said, the white balance in that OP shot, was so wrong into the warm scale that it is going to make everything look ten times worse than reality, although it does still show that there is in fact a difference, would have been good to know that your brightness on both were the same, because I am sure they were not, all shops I went to had the slider on max and the phone shipped doesn't so you would have to consciously have to make that change. Because I can simulate with one phone, just buy using the brightness slider the same as your opening post
I have a fully professionally calibrated screen and my phones white standard matches my screen almost perfectly, most people from what I can gather prefer a more cold white, if so +8 green and blue makes my Z1 similar to my Z and more close to the HTC One.
Both devices needs calibrating.
Maybe there is a different lightsource hitting on the right, but that one to me seems to have too much red in it.
The white balance app is up for grabs.
Someone who has two z1's in close proximity should try testing and see if they can get them to be equal, and if that fails, I'd be more inclined to believe there are that many "faulty screens"
Hey guys, for months now since i got my beloved xp z a thing that bothered me somewhat were that when it was flat on the table i had trouble seeing my work mails unless the phone was realy close to me, as normally refered as the viewing angles.
Since then ive been reading and experimenting with a lot of apps to tweak the contrast and backlight intensity but well everything basically sucked and didnt work as advertized in the options.
Disapointed but not beaten, i recently tried an app that actualy works realy well to my amazement.
First of all, its a screen filter that decreases the intensity of the whites, but it seems to work a little diferently from all the other milion apps that swear to do the same.
It requires some number tweaking and ive settled for 60% filter in the app, then increased the phone brightness to 65%, just tweak it to your preference.
App store: screen filter by haxor industry
It has a substancial effect on the angles and heck i think i even find the colors better...
Cheers
cos of TFT nature that produce white a little more compare to other I've using "Smart SCREEN PRO" . it has more setting such as multicolored filter, can dim navigation bar and etc.
Definitely looks nicer. blacker blacks. Thank you very much.
Thanks for sharing sir...Im gonna try this one and hopes to get the one i wanted with my Z
Really you are struggling with viewing angles? I'm so happy with my X Z, I really don't know why people are arguing about viewing angles.

It troubles me at work yes. My desk is always full and my phone needs to be in weird angles while i have mails with open documents.
The majors problem is that most scanned documents are in white background and xperia z loses a lot of contrast in wider viewing angles.
With this app tough i get a little better readability on documents in weird angles.
Great, this app really works

I noticed big.differences in screens in different phones. My dad has an older Z and his screen looks washed out when mine's on par with screens like HTC one and S4 in terms of viewing angles. My phone is about 2 months old and my dad's is half a year old.

This difference you've noticed, are the two Zs using the same firmware?

Really? I came from Samsung Galaxy S 1/2/3 to Xperia Z and I'm so dissapointed I can't even tell you. This is by far,. the worst screen & colors I have seen in a while.
Any screen/angling/coloring improvement on Xperia Z is a must.

Check your screen types. Depending on where your unit was built, it can have a different display LCD.

I do believe those smartphones with screens that has very wide viewing angles are for people who use their phones sideways, and those who like showing their texts and emails to strangers sitting/standing beside them.
The viewing angles can never be fixed due to the tn-display.
Compared to my n5 with excellent viewing angles and a very good black level the Z display has no chance, but honestly i don't care that much,
Z is still a solid phone.

Does all xperia sp has it or is it failure? I mean vertical lines are visible on light backgrounds. and even if the phone is turned off under good lighting conditions when phone is tilted those lines can be seen. I don't use any screen protector. I'm going crazy about this. I was expecting a lot from this phone but now I simply regret I bought it.
I can't take a picture but I found the same problem here
is this really a feature of xperia sp? crazy if so...
Yes that's normal and it is also on other Sony phones. But it is so rarely that you see these lines, so it doesn't matter for me. I actually also like the stripes
Gesendet von meinem Sony Xperia SP C5303
It's normal. I had these lines too.
This may not be a problem, I'm just curious if anyone else have this.
When I have taken a picture, and go to the picture before it's finished processing, I see this red spot there.
It's gone when the picture is finished.
I guess as long as the finished result is good, it doesn't matter.
The thing is, I'm sure it wasn't like that before..
Anyone else noticed this red spot while processing?
You've got only one spot, I usually get about 10 or more. They are gone when processing finishes so I don't bother.

Yes, I got one spot at the same place every time. Just wondering if this is normal, but I'm guessing it is then.
With an all dark mode Galaxy s10 plus I've noticed when I receive Heads Up notification ls in the middle of whatever app I'm using all I see is a white bubble with white letters. How can I fix this???
Yeh im getting that too annoying. I think press hold on notification but may b then u switch em off completely.
