Last time when I hold it, it is bad, I remember you and benny888 said before no different. I even check all demo set I ever seen at Malaysia and Singapore for Z Ultra and Z1. They is a huge different when turning on, so probably certain user cannot realise they is a change on it. The differences is too huge for me even pass look at it I can know the set is turning on or not.

When optimize is on,

  • Screen dimmer.
  • All icon looks less shine.
  • Color shift when you pull down the notification.
  • Deep black missing, obvious at side panel and notification toggle icon background.
  • More obvious ghosting effect occur.
  • Less sharpen, obvious when you see movie below 1080p with X-Reality turn on.
I am sensitive with screen, little change I can notice:

  • I can spot CRT monitor is set at least 75Hz or not by passby only, the screen is badly flickering if set at 60Hz or below. I never wrong yet in my life.
  • I dislike Plasma TV as I can seen horizontal line scanning like old type TV when look closer.
  • I can seen not constant color shift on TN/VA panel on mobile even straight look on it.

as i said, you are being exaggerated… even if the display quality decreased with optimised backlight on, doesn't mean it is so bad until we can said this phone having a bad display.. ya maybe you are picky on display, like i'm being picky on audio/earphones output, but in general 99% users are not like that.. dunno how many times need to say this.

Stop protecting your belove brand, come on! Did I ever said the screen is bad? I just post whatever I seen, and whatever I seen when it is on or off. It is not that good when on, but I never said it is bad. They is nothing exaggerated here.

They is quite some people (actually a lot) is picky on screen, if not you won't see so many complains on Sony screen panel due to mostly lousy panel VA/TN use, also complains on Samsung AMOLED panel due to blueish/greenish issue and people start assumption AMOLED is like that as too many generations like that until it start settle down when S4 is appear. The only panel I never seen people complain is Apple iPhone or HTC or probably any IPS panel.

Due to got customer like you, product never improve, as no need improve as the die hard fans never bother about it.

I write all this is for manufacture can improve in future, not other means. (Not only here, I write everywhere).

When you seen people complain, means people still got expectation on that brand/product, if one day you seen no one bother about it, means that brand is total dead already.

You are butthurt by XZU, that's why. I LOL. U are not using this phone anymore, live happily with your amazing Note3.. Come on, stop bashing.. There is a lot of issues on note3 as well, go focus and comment on that.. Lol

I am not protecting sony. Did u see my comment on z1? Stop say I love sony brand, I like the phone, not the brand..

See why I said u always being exaggerated? See your statement above "due to got a customer like u, products never improve".. Am I having such a great power to stop innovation? You sir, just rclxub.gif doh.gif

If you think this is bashing, I got nothing to said, die hard fans = what?, you know it. Bye! stop commenting my post, you can ignore it, no need answer my post if you are such die hard. You can continue that die hard, one day you will regret if every Sony fans like you.

I didn't find any issue (big) to let me comment on Note 3 yet, if happen, I will said also. Those defect product to certain user get, I didn't. But what happen in Sony phone now, it is there, if not Sony also won't removing the optimizing backlight options & not actually solved it.

Why u said I'm a die hard fan of Sony? rclxub.gif most of times you are just bashing here and there.. It is OK to give comments or review, but should be constructive.. Most of your post are just doh.gif if there is 99% good thing about a device and 1% problem, you will exaggerate on the problem only, while overlook the other 99%. Especially on XZU.. Because u just hate XZU. laugh.gif

My 2 cents opinion on the display quality/issues of the XZU vs Note 3. I have both phones now, and the XZU is the LTE version

My previous 3G XZU - I do not faced the display issues as described by Andrewtst and even though I am an old chap, my eyesight is not that poor to see any difference.,Andrewtst set is regrettably very extremely BAD !! I think he got a bad/lemon display set.

Now my current LTE set display comparably is worse than the 3G set - it carries a very heavy yellowish tone and the latest firmware update has improved it but the yellowish tone is still there . Before I updated the firmware I use an app Screen Adjuster to reduce the yellowishness. Geerally overall XZU display quality ( based on the 2 sets I have used) can never match the Note 3 which is overall sharper and colors are brighter/crispier
The firmware update has removed the optimised backlit settings which I think is purposely done by Sony to leave it to be always on ( probably they still couldn't solve the fake hang issue which affects some sets) and generally the display is inconsistent in different lighting conditions - overall I find is worse than the 3G model

On display quality if I rate the Note 3 a score of 9, the XZU will score a 7
*
isn't yellowish tint is a defect? should claim warranty or 1 to 1 exchange.

regarding the display type, not everyone fond to Amoled display.. for me, HTC One display wins anytime up till now! i prefer natural type of display, and that on HTC One

But some really don't understand and said I bashing.

They is even a staff warn me said I Flamebaiting because I hate Z Ultra, I just knew few days ago, really speechless got such mindset staff at lowyat. I never hate Z Ultra and never flame.

Saying true is wrong? Really funny.

ok, actually i don't want to argue with u.. its just, the way you post your comment, more toward destructive than constructive.. another thing is, you like to compare this and other device, especially Note 3, and saying like the other device is better than XZU.. almost in all of your post, you are trying to say XZU is inferior than any other flagship out there,better get Note 3 than XZU and bla bla bla.. so thats what i said are not constructive comments.. if not, it is totally fine to comment and review.. for example, if u feel the camera is not that good, share with user here what is the best setting, or what app can be use to improve it.. or like when we encountered the optimised backlight bug, we share about the problem and how to avoid it.. that are example of constructive posting… remember when android phone was not so smooth before, we were discussing how to get it smoother by flashing custom ROMS, what is the best ROM and kernel, but not like "booo its laggy better dump and get iPhone"… do you get what i mean? stay with constructive and positive posting, then i have nothing to go against your posts.. cheer

ps: an example of a user with constructive posts is Benny888.. the way he post comment/review is natural, eventho at some point he disfavor XZU, but the way he say it, it is not toward bashing.

You are something wrong, I had check back your post history, you love argue with people, probably you too bored.

I never ever promote better get Note 3 than XZU before.

The optimize backlight issue, is me the one mention it and write that long prevention at 1st page, all information in 1st page 99% written by me. Get it? Current owner only use back my previous thread by copy and paste.

How to improve camera output, I had share a lot before as well.

Whatever you said never legit, I never said this phone is lag or not also, and no custom ROM for you to play much and no need, as XZU is smooth enough!

Your post in-fact is the most useless in general. What had you share or contribute? beside talking nonsense?
*
thats why i said, if your post is constructive, i have nothing against your post! i know your are the previous TS for this thread, which was great, and i like it when u were a TS, but then somehow u started cumulative disfavor posts on XZU.

is it me or you are too bored? i get away from this forum sometime when i'm busy, not like you always here. LOL. did u see i'm lurking in your beloved Note 3 thread much? no right, because i'm not a user. last time before it launch, i was in the thread when we are still waiting for it to launch, but when i decided not to get it, i keep myself from posting there instead of just reading to avoid posting "imaginary experience".

good that you check my previous post history, and likewise i also know how are you behaving around here too.. yes i like to argue when i have uncommon opinion with other, nothing is wrong with arguing, thats the basic in finding the best resolution for anything. argument also either constructive or destructive..

i going to stop arguing with you or else mod will warn.. since you couldn't agree with my advise to keep posting constructively, then keep on posting to your heart content, whatever you want. to fill your free time. chaw

edit: haha its good that you ignored me. do you think i'm that free to argue with u? no thank you. this is also my last post to answer u.

ever since I've got XUZ, my iPad mini is neglected.
only use it if my XUZ is low in battery.

similarly, my tablet always underutilized as hardly to bring around. but for XZU, it is still pocketable, thus it is fully utilized hence worth to buy than a tablet, unless if u want a bigger display like a 10" tablet.

ipad mini is still a tablet due to 2 reasons; 1. it too big can't put into pocket, 2. it can't make call; eventho XZU is quite big almost the size of a tablet but its a phone.

i also interested with ipad mini 2 drool.gif
