[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
since most reviews that didn't measure but just looked at the device where impressed with the screen it should be okay :) but I guess we already knew that.

Tomorrow HTC M7 will be reviled Judgment day for the z (as far as my pre order is concerned).
[Xperia Z General] dibdin:
Same here too. Though I feel the HTC's One screen is very likely to be significantly better than that of the Z.
[Xperia Z General] Shasarak:
Contrast ratio is a measure of how much brighter white pixels are than black pixels. So, if a display has a low contrast ratio that (in theory) could mean that whites are very dim, or it could mean that blacks are very bright. In practice, it's pretty much always the black-level that is the significant one - on a high CR display, black pixels are actually pretty much black; on a low CR display, black pixels still let quite a lot of light through, and appear more grey than black.

Poor black level is particularly a problem when looking at photos or watching videos - areas that are supposed to look black instead look a washed-out kind of grey. (And no, Bravia processing doesn't fix this).

Another way to look at it is that it affects how much you can turn up the backlight. On a high-CR display you can turn the overall display brightness up high (making the whites brighter) without bringing up the black level to the point where it becomes annoying. On a low-CR display you have to choose between turning the brightness up high and turning all the blacks grey, or turning it down which makes the blacks more bearable, but also makes everything else dimmer, and perhaps therefore harder to read.

I'm aware I may not be explaining that very well :( but hopefully that was better than nothing!
[Xperia Z General] maverick1103:
Still, I bet it will have no micro sd support, not look as good and won't be great for rooting....that's why I will keep the XZ :)
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
Yeah properly will, but to me it is not the most important, my note 10.1v isn't perfect, it has a contrast ratio of 1:800 but I prefer reading from it over reading from a e-ink device. Used to have the eslick reader gave it away after I got the tab since I didn't use it any longer.

I have to say that if the screenshots are true that I don't really like the look of the M7 coupled that with poor dev support I think I still get the Z even dough the screen maybe a bit better. In defense of HTC I must note that part of the bad dev support of the one x has to do with the Nvidia chip set, so it might get better with the m7.
[Xperia Z General] kyogiro:
Of course we're gonna compare. The phone cost more than 600 € and it is aiming, according to Sony, at the top spot against the top competition.

Of course, people will choose according their own standards, but that doens't mean we shouldn't compare smartphones, especially ones at the same price tag.

It's not about getting a bad phone, it's about getting the best out of your money (once again, according to one's standards).

[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
So if a website makes a critic about a non i device it is biased?

Not that I'm a fan of cnet but this sounds a bit ridicules especially since the iphone 5 is on the 4th place and the xperia v is on the first in the CNET Asia Top 10 phones

edit:

btw the Z gets a editors choice where as the iphone 5 is not so lucky
[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Don't worry about the speaker's volume. If it's been loud enough for me to hear it from my pocket inside a crowded and loud Sony Centre ( was testing it ) - then you'll be able to hear just fine. It's not great due to waterproofing, but not worse than most phones - and certainly loud enough to be used as a ringer.

[Xperia Z General] craftycarper1:
I've just popped into my local 3 store again to satisfy my curiosity once again, and nothing i saw has made me want to cancel my pre order.

Now i'm no professional, but the screen to me looks perfect, pin sharp, colours not too bold, i like it a lot.

I played a video on it and could hear the sound well enough, bearing in mind this store is an open front store in a shopping centre.

I am happy with the choice i have made.............

until tomorrow afternoon maybe :D

Unless HTC surprise us all and the M7/One is a 5" device i will be staying with the XZ :cool:

Review from The Independent (UK)

That Independent review seems to give a fairly good view from the "Average Joe". And the average joe seems to really like it! No complaints RE screen or camera, are we protecting too much?
[Xperia Z General] xl VipeR lx:
Yh. I was thinking it's not like it's bad and unreadable. I thought one x contest was rubbish after I moved from s2. But still I'm used to it now. Same with xz. I'll get used to it. I think they call it reality display as colors don't look too assisted and fake.
[Xperia Z General] craftycarper1:
You mean the one that is posted a few posts above this? @ timaustin2000
[Xperia Z General] sfex3best:
Really wanted this phone but something tells me that I should wait a few more months just in case something like an Xperia Play 2 is released.
[Xperia Z General] :
I was all for it until I spoke to 3 today and heard the bootloader was fully locked down by them and nothing I can do to change that. Contract is up with them soon so leave them and go with someone else and the S4 now most prob. Xperia Z still looks great though.
[Xperia Z General] Warren.D:
Just upgrade your contract through carphone warehouse. You'll get a factory unlocked sim free handset that way

Just been playing with it in a 3 store as well, more than happy with the display. Bring on the 28th.
[Xperia Z General] Timaustin2000:
I'm with you guys: I think there was a "shock" felt by many, myself included, that the phone wasn't "flawless". But, having spent some time with the device, I've come to realise that I was over-reacting. The screen is fine. The camera is fine (better than fine - it's very good).

I'm looking forward to the phone landing on my doormat.
[Xperia Z General] maverick1103:
Ditto, I am more than happy with it! Tbh I doubt the new HTC will be anything special, if we are to go by the leaked image it looks vile!
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
It is the 5in Reality Display with its Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution which makes the Xperia Z stand out. The screen is nothing short of stunning and easily the best we've ever seen on a smartphone

We were pleased to find the Xperia Z not only lasted a day but went a good way through a second. As you can see from the screenshot we went 31 hours and still had 20 percent of the battery remaining
[Xperia Z General] JPWOA:
Sony Mobile in France has already start selling it...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lennonfan:
Just bought and clipped on my new flip case (the one with back case attached).

Question is: is there a setting to auto lock the screen once the cover is closed?

Surely there's a sensor onboard that can detect the case has been closed & covered the screen area? Like the Nexus 7. :eek:

Superuser

Hi guys, awesome ROM. Very fast on my old Atrix!

I got the 4.2.2 version and I am trying to get superuser right for some apps but they get always denied.

I set the Access to Apps and ADB and Automatic Response to Confirmation dialog (even tried Allow)

but my apps SAMBA, CPU Master always get denied.

What am I doing wrong?

Thx

PS I do get reboots sometimes but only when the phone is idle with the screen off, when I use it, it is rock solid.

I am in Airplane mode and use WiFi only (no working sim in the phone)

Hi. Rom is working smooth and no signal problems. Installed gapps 20130812 for android 4.2.2 and google+ crashes continously. I can't get root privileges too. Isit possible that the battery lifetime is slightly worse than previous 4.1.2 rom?

So basically you're running a CM10 ROM and attempting to run an app that is built specifically for 4.2.2 (CM10.1)? Yes, there are apps that are built for specific android versions.

CM10 Beta for Atrix 4G: really ?

Let me understand, I was thinking, that CM10 on Atrix (especially the Kernel) was still in Alpha stage; so how did you build a Beta CM10-based ROM for the Atrix (aka Olympus) ? :confused:

Looking at epinter's XDA page and web site (2013-11-07), CM10 port to Atrix is still in Alpha stage ?

epinter is already fuelling my Atrix with its CM7.2 ROM, this why I'm putting a great interest on his CM10 dev.

But discovering CM10 is in beta stage and thus ready for daily used would be a great new :good:
