Im shocked with that screen comparison.
I want to get z1 but afraid to get that kind of screen.

that sucks.
like, i love the design and the sony UI is the best out there... the camera seems nice too!
but why they couldn't use a better screen ? why?
Like what is their problem there in japan ? is this THE BEST OF SONY?? clearly not!!
as the best screen is found in the ULTRA, the Best audio is found in the walkman, the best camera in phones is in the z1, the best battery life is in the ZR.
that one sony is marketing bullshit. anyway i will probably end buying the z1, but i am frustrated with sony.
for me the lg g2, is the better device, (price:quality ratio...).
but i really love the sony design and the UI, AND hate the UI of LG..
so yeah here goes the perfect phone..

^screen is actually really great.
i have just taken pictures of my Z1 screen at straight on, 45 degrees and about 88 degrees (as far as i could go and still focus.. I'm too lazy to get my CF card reader, but when I do, i'll post them here..
the screen is actually pretty damn nice.. maybe next to the ZU, it doesn't seem like it? everything is relative
a lexus is pretty nice!.. until you stick it next to a lambo..
all kidding aside.. it's a shame that this is even an issue at all. sony should have MADE SURE that every Z1 screen is immaculate and perfect like the ZU, which garnered so much praise from everyone.

Here are my right focus test.

I can absolutely determine that this is a hardware issue. Even with the right of the frame focused, it's still a bit soft. With a third party app, like Camera MX, the effect is not as big, but still noticeable. Going to wait one more week, see if any new firmware will be out and pray for the impossible. Which is fixing a hardware issue with a software update..... Oh well, the pain of losing my Z1 is going to be great. Now deciding between a full refund or an exchange. Aaah, the choices.
@moogoo Good luck, hope you don't get a faulty unit like I did.

The only disadvantage with the screen are the viewing angles. It is still one of the best screen on the market minus the viewing angles.
At least know everybody can see that my source was right about the screen lottery.

@MNX - that sucks man. HOPE it's really not a HW issue. I need to test mine. I haven't taken a single photo yet! haha.. i should do that..
I updated my XPERIA PRIVILEGE app to 3.0. It indeed checks the SIM to determine if offers are available. Sounds like us americans will have to wait until the Z1 is offered in the US.. which will hopefully be next month some time along with the Canadians..

@ MNX1024
According to my source the team in Lund has a new package ready to go for the camera which makes the processing much better but they are being blocked by Japanese management at Sony's digital imaging.
There is no legal issues it is just and internal battle at Sony. As soon as Lund gets the approval from Japan the Camera update will be rolled out. Expect some leaked images withe the new software in the near future
