I searched everywhere but so far every review fails to mention the led on the phone. Is it like that one x where it has one green and orange light or is it one multi colored light?
Thanks

Only green and red.
only noticed green and red too
Green on - battery fully charged
Green flashing - notification text etc
Red battery charging.
Maybe others, but those are all I have noticed

HTC deem it as a 'trademark' so you will probs never see a full RGB notification light. Which is a shame tbh.

could be multi led.so sad
That's a shame. Seems like it's the only thing missing in this beast. Too bad it won't be available here for at least another month. Thanks to everyone who answered!
My friend just bought this phone and I am shocked at how poor the display is. I was so excited to check out this phone but compared to my Xperia S, the display is crap. The colors are so washed out, the status bar is grey not black...it's not so bad when viewing videos where bravia kicks in, but in the System UI it's piss poor. My Xperia S is so much vibrant and I can't believe that is the case.
I tried googling, saw a lot of people complaining, but some of the data is old and supposedly that was only the case in test models? Has this issue not been resolved or is my friend's phone defected?
The status bar is meant to be grey.
A a snippet from my post in another thread:
The screen looks stunning, like as good as (if not better than) HTC One stunning.
I think the biggest problem is genuinely the grey interface. If you dump the default wallpaper for one with some deep colours it really looks awesome. I reckon if the next update has black interface bars too, it will really show up that this is a really nice screen, just with a slightly dull initial interface.

Change your wallpaper to black you will see the black than.
Please Sony release the update and make the ui black and let us free. lol.
The built in wallpaper of a blue flower on black background really shows the blacks up well.

Why are people still responding to posts questioning the screen quality? It's obvious that the colours are not subject to over saturation and therefore will look 'washed out' next to other devices that have the saturation cranked up to the max. I was initially a bit disappointed with the screen myself, but after having the Z for a few weeks, now see the colours are actually displayed correctly on the Z.

Your friends phone is totally fine. The xperia z i like that. There are a couple of tweaks that can modify and improve the xperia z colours it like the whitebalance mod
Press thanks if i have helped
Thanks guys, I want trying to bash Sony, I was just surprised initially. Very bad decision by Sony with the UI, really looks bad and very washed out..
I went to service mode and did the display test, the blacks are fine.

The next update is said to have black ui bars so it should make that side of it better.

Ya, the worldwide edition status bar is in grey color, only Japan DoCoMo Edition origin in black.
That why a lot mod already here for changing grey bar to black or even now semi transparent possible.
Rumors also mention coming version will revert to black bar.
Does anyone experience seeing many red pixels scattered around the screen on a black background? Whenever I use the camera app and pan over something that is dark, red pixels flash all over the black areas. Is it dead pixels?

For some reason. After I reboot everything is lighter colored. So instead of sark gray its light gray. Instead of a dark green hangouts icon its lime green. And its like that on everything for about 30 minutes or so...anyone know what that is?

Nvm. Turns out the wallpaper makes a difference. But the keyboard is still supper light. Almost white instead of dark gray

It's probably a power saving feature for the lcd. The contrast changes depending on how much black there is on the screen

Let me try,
Is your white really white, or your white pink toned,
I meant, the white on your display
Try to capture some white object
View it on your s3 mini display
Is it really white or pink toned
I switch a lot, unfortunately not the high end
I have a some mid range and low end smartphone
All of them is in cute category
