XZ1's JDC Screen vs XZ1's low quality screen (sharp?)

jader13254 · Dec 20, 2013

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

Yea will order a few Z1 online maybe I'll get a good screen.

scorpio_K · Dec 20, 2013

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.

sg1969 · Dec 20, 2013

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

aksmzk · Dec 20, 2013

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.

eclyptos · Dec 20, 2013

So this is the famous yellow hue in the Z1. Now I can said I am lucky one for some aspects, not all.

shteren · Dec 20, 2013

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.

benziii · Dec 20, 2013

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"
