Duh, You don't get it mate, Go check YT first , you're not seeing the whole picture with this
It's essentially the same Triluminos screen, I highly doubt it's is much worse then ZU TBH. besides those two pictures were taken on different lighting conditions, the reflection on the Z1 screen caused by the lighting inside the IFA room didn't gave it justice. you shouldn't jump into such conclusions
if it's virtually the same at right angles

if would be impossible to see this being much worse when looking at angled view
Top picture is DUMMY!
Bottom - real phone.
Feel the diff))

so much criticism..
1) viewing angles are a stupid debate. most people don't care in real life usage and it's just a tech geek spec that people look to criticize.
2) photos are wonderful. admad and his crop with people at the "same distance" from the camera. are you blind? those people are at least 10 feet further away from the camera.. or are they "little people"?
3) great news on the codec support, though honesty i'm not sure i'd put it to use.
4) to all the haters and trolls.. if ya don't like it, too bad. it's official now so there's no sense in bitchin bout it. show your lack of support and buy something else. For the love of all things holy, save this thread for intelligent and enthusiastic discussions about the Z1 and its features/capabilities with those who love and are buying this device, are curious about this device to buy, and already ordered it!

Both the Sony Xperia Z1 and the HTC One come with excellent 1080 by 1920 pixel displays, delivering an outstanding level of detail. The screen on the Z1, however, is slightly bigger with its 5-inch diagonal, while the One's panel measures 4.7-inches. Since the quality of both panels is outstanding, it would be very hard to say which one of the two is better. Both exhibit very accurate color reproduction, that we can say for sure

Both the Sony Xperia Z1 and the Samsung Galaxy S4 come with 5-inch 1080p screens delivering about the same level of image quality. However, these panels are fundamentally different. While the Galaxy S4 has a Super AMOLED HD display, the Xperia Z1 is equipped with a so-called Triluminos screen, adopting tech that its maker has borrowed from its TV division. Nevertheless, both screens look great in person, delivering pretty colors even at an angle.

I'm thoroughly impressed with the Z1. Thin, waterproof, fast, great camera. I only wish they would have gone with the 5.2" screen the G2 uses. With the onscreen buttons, a 5" screen becomes 4.7-4.8" useable area for most apps and launchers. That's why LG used a 5.2" screen for the G2, you still get the 5" useable area with the onscreen buttons. I have the HTC One and it is a great phone, but I played with a Galaxy S4 Active (because of the water resistant feature) and while its not as smooth as the One, having those extra 0.3" in screen real estate was a much bigger deal than I had thought. So Sony is selling a 5" screen that will have far less useable area than the 5" screen of the GS4 and the 5.2" screen of the G2. We all know that the Z1 has a lot more going for it than those phones, but the average person will go into a store and see how much more fits on the GS4 screen and be swayed.
It just shows that little extra attention to detail that Sony is still developing. I have no doubt the Z2 will be even better and most likely bring everything on par with the top makers. Honestly, I would have been happy with a phone that was a couple of mm thicker and put the camera in the middle of the phone. That would have allowed them to make the top and bottom bezels smaller and feel more comfortable about adding the extra width that comes with the 5.2" screen. I know the argument that thin sells, and so it becomes a matter that Sony painted themselves into a corner with their design language of a flat back. A tapered back, where the middle was thick enough to accommodate the lens/sensor and the edges were thinner would have allowed them to market it as a thin phone.
One thought...If you could swipe up from the bottom of the screen to enable the onscreen buttons that would be ideal, so they're only there when you need to use them. Does anyone know if this has been thought of or implemented before?

@ dr.W
I've often thought about that, similar to how some internet browsers hide the search bar or taskbar options when not actively being used. It does make me wonder how difficult it would be to have to constantly resize whatever you're currently looking at, would make things look compressed. The other option would be to have the buttons come overtop a full-screen image of what you're viewing, but then people would complain about things getting covered up while the buttons were out =/

So any word on when the Z1 will be getting Android 4.3 update? Will it be "soon after release"?

Perhaps they're using two different panel like the one on the z? It's prototype btw and I hope the retail version will come with a better screen
