Why are people going on about the display being washed out. That's nothing new with Sony devices. They all wash out when you tilt the phone owing to narrow bowling viewing angles.
Head on the display is fine in every respect. Most of the reviews say it's an amazing display with poor viewing angles. What's new, it we the the same for the S, ion and just about every SE and Sony device.
They say themes have a grayish tint which makes it look worse. I'm sure that'll be changed with 4.2.
There is no need for conspiracies here, the phones got poor viewing angles. Disappointing that Sony haven't moved to ips panels but it doesn't make the display poor in general because head on, it's absolutely fine, as good as the very best.

Slashgear review up - more dislike for the screen and battery.
Forget about that review, they lost me the minute they said the Z benchmarks at the same level as the nexus 4 and butterfly.
