VA Panels do not have as perfect viewing angles as IPS( Z Ultra ) but have better colors and superior contrast. Top BRAVIA sets use VA panels. The award winning BRAVIA HX series TVs all use VA panel
So head on Z1 will be noticeably superior to Z Ultra, while viewing angles would only very slightly worse ( noticeable only when you do a direct comparison)

yes and better blacks - ZU was a very impressive device, the best screen I have ever seen on a phone, if the Z1 is going to be even better then I'm not sure what to say, I sold the ZU because it was a little too big and the camera just didn't make me happy, if it had had the Z camera I might have kept it

To review:
VA LCD
PROS: better colors, better contrast
CONS: viewing angles not as good (colors start to wash out at high angles), refresh rate not as high
IPS LCD
PROS: great viewing angles, high refresh rate
CONS: contrast and colors not as good/vivid
ALSO..
Just to make a point that it doesn't really matter, as far as i have read, there has been no major website that has said the Z1 has poor viewing angles or has a poor display. In fact, it has been praised by many sites as being very impressive and comparable or better to the leading competitors. Even sites who previously bashed the Z for having a bad display and sites who are generally anti-sony have not bashed the Z1 display. The ONLY one who has is the VERGE.. and we all know they're idiots over there.
So, that should give anyone who has doubts about the display pretty good confidence. But, by all means, if you can, you should try the device yourself and trust your own eyes.

VA is actual better with motion and response time. IPS is "slower" but on a smartphone motion performance is not really relevant

Do you read what Xell wrote? You don`t trust him?
For me it is absolutely unbelievably: after all noise about bad screen at SZX and good and very good screens at Tablet Z and SZX Ultra they put same cheap panel to its megaflagship all around great phone!?
Man here says good - screen in real life not near as good as on promo pictures.
I really hope, that stocking models will be better because i really whan`t to by it.
You can 1000 times said that i`m trool, but it is nothing changing. Sorry for my bad english.

Great to hear this thing about VA and IPS (always learning something new here on ESATO
)
But where did you find that the Z1 panels are VA LCD?

Some chinese site interviewed a Sony exec who mentioned they are using VA panel on Z1 and used IPS on Z Ultra because of the large screen size.
Also Honami rumors always mentioned a VA panel with 2000:1 Contrast ratio.

I didn't know this... thanks
Well if I had to sacrifice a bit of viewing angles for having more contrast and more brightness then I'm all in...
