motvikt.. got a link? and do they have screen comparisons or did they just rely on their eye?
EDIT: PhoneArena is reporting a 32gb variant? hmmmm.. but the whitepaper says 16gb.. so maybe PA is wrong as usual.

(...) "the new Xperia Z1 doesn't have a terribly impressive display. The problem is that Sony consistently opts for cheaper LCDs than its mobile competition, which shows in the limited viewing angles and washed-out colors on its handsets."

i think it's just the wallpaper. the wallpaper really looks washed out but if you start digging into the different functions, things look significantly better.
they have to really change that awful wallpaper. if it's just a photo they're using, the display really stands out.
that stupid verge writer does not even understand how triluminos displays work. it'd be stupid for sony to use quantum dots on cheap displays. he's just judging based on his impression of the wallpaper. that's why sony's also at fault. why on earth are they still using that awful wallpaper? |

verge is obviously stupid. they're even saying the Z Ultra's screen isn't impressive while EVERYONE else praises it greatly. how can that be? answer = verge is stupid

I wouldn't trust the verge on giving any accurate or positive opinions on a non Apple product, they say that the colours of the Z1 are washed out like other Sony Handsets... the Z no doubt has bad viewing angles but saying that the colours are washed out is ridiculous.
With that said, the few hands on videos that i've seen on the Z1 have shown that the screen's viewing angles aren't that great. If that is the case, it's very disappointing and I'll wait until Sony does better in that aspect. |

It's Z1 or G2, video too small to judge. But definitely S4 sucked.  |

it's hard to tell from that distance.
S4 is a definitely 3rd place. G2 and Z1 have similar colors. but detail and clarity can't be judged from a distance.
at this stage in the game though, basically any premium smartphone is gonna have a very good screen.
