^ I've just read her posts on XDA, TBH she seems to be very angry when someone questions her findings, Anyway my opinion on the matter is that she's too technical and that she seems to be insisting that the numbers in her findings do not lie. She also insists that her device is not defective. I mean cmon it's like saying we are all wrong and she's right and she's the professional, she even said:
"I'm slightly more advanced that GSMarena. lol. They do some good stuff but they have no idea what they are doing when it comes to displays. AT ALL. Half the time their measurements are wrong"
according to her posts on xda 
also about the youtube video she posted, she's complaining that the screen is greyish with light bleeding when:
viewed in a pitch black environment with
brightness setting turned to a maximum 100%
WHAT? who looks at a screen set to maximum brightness at a pitchblack environment? you would ruin your eyes if you do that for a prolonged period of time.
she purposely set the brightness to maximum and complain that it's too bright having light bleed and greyish blacks. I mean of course what do you expect to happen? It's the same as miscalibrating the screen and then saying it sucks. :facepalm:

I think the best would be for you to look at it yourself then decide, usually at retail stores they have working display units there so you can judge whether the display is good for you or not. So far various review sites praised the screen as well as members here who have the unit already.

Hi everyone, really sorry for the off, but the themes and ringtones section is literally dead. I'm looking for that colored paper flowers wallpaper wich is introduced in nearly every Xperia demo video. Can someone help me? And sorry again for the off. |

Haha, maybe Sony thinks their new phone is so gorgeous when the screen is off that they decided to keep it that way...
The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand... Mediar's Site |

Now I get why Samsung oversaturate their stuff. Basically, the equal but opposite reason.
On topic: why do reviewers pretend it currently has x-reality? They BETTER redo their reviews when the global version is released. |

So for those living in Poland, it seems the Z ultra has appeared on the Sonymobile store in Poland, I have no idea if the site is officially from Sony but it seems like it is.
2 colours, white and black with a ridiculous price of 2,899pln, which is 685 euros.  it is the LTE model btw. Availability is the 9th of September, meaning once Honami is announced, it will probably take ages before it gets to Poland. |

Sonymobile store is official sony store for Poland.
Why are you saying that the price is ridiculous? It's only 100zl more expensive than Xperia Z was when it launched and with Z ultra you get the magnetic charger. Remember about 23% VAT, if you discount it its more like 560 euros.
And it's not coming late, remember that at this time Ultra was released only in asian countries and it is supposed to come to europe in september so everything is going according to the plan. It'll probably land with the 'final' firmware that includes new UI and X-reality engine.
So I wouldn't say that honami will take ages before it becomes available in Poland, at worst few days after major markets. |
