Nothing special, to be honest. As mentioned in one of the comments under the video, he should have had the camera straight over the phones at the 90 degrees angle and set brightness equally. To me it doesn't seem as if the brightness was set equally... But maybe that's only me.
Aside from that, the screen was displaying everything totally properly I would say. I was a bit worried though about some greenish colour when the Nexus was in the Chrome browser. But that can also be only me.

i agree with this.
the second video is better,90 degrees angle for both.
I hope kernel devs will modify display gamma for a bit more saturated colors,as the one X and iphone 5 :good:

And in the second video the GS3 screen was way too vivid, my eyes hurt But I guess it's just a thing you can get accustomed to, AMOLED screen that is.
Overall, Nexus seems pretty color - accurate to me. As soon as I get mine, I'll definitely post some RAW photos from my DSLR so you guys will be able to truly compare them to others. I think it would be a good idea though to post some decent RAW photos and let the community judge. Simple but effective.

Not sure if it is just me but this video quality was horrendous. Both displays looked awful. I am not sure what he was using for a video camera but for a display comparison I think he needs something better.

They all look good to me, you cannot go wrong with any screen. People can keep comparing under a camera lens and through the bias of their own monitor, however if you had any of these phones without all the others to compare then you'd be happy.
Personally I prefer OLED because of the black levels but tbh I don't care all that much.

Both displays looked great but you could tell that the Nexus had better colour reproduction and the whites were a lot better as well. S3 definitely seems to have some sort of a hue when it comes to producing whites. In the video he played the black levels looked pretty close.

Must be my display then.. the first video looked great but the second one was no good. I could not get a real great view. I will watch again later using my next 7.

I think you just didn't watch the video long enough. It starts off horrible and I was about to stop the video. But it becomes really clear around the time he starts comparing the snake heads.

I was shocked at how washed out the Nexus 4 display looked to me when I first got it.
I don't notice it at all now - the display is beautiful. The iPhone 5 display appears to be of better overall quality, but I'll take the N4s screen size any day.

Tired of your washed out screen?

Then let's get Google to fix it.
Star this issue. Right now, it only has 5 stars. Encourage everyone you know who has an Nexus 4 and is annoyed with the washed out and faded colors to star this issue. Maybe we can get better screen calibration in Key Lime Pie.

Bright cartoonish colours and black crush does not mean a good screen.

The screen on my N4 is wonderfully neutral for a change, in real life colours don't burn your eyes out.

4.2.2 is better, not perfect, but quite nice. imo

That's the thing. It is not true to life. Well...it is if you're living a world filled with shades of grey After i installed one of Mole's custom kernels i can say that the difference is STAGGERING. Gamma values are between 2.2 and 2.4 (compared to 1.6-1.7 in stock kernel). RGB standards say that 2.2 is true to life...1.6 isn't

I find the screen to be completely acceptable, and great to use. Only 45 people starred it at the time of writing this post, out of thousands of users (if not more) on Nexus 4 forums. Everyone knows that screen is less saturated and more natural than AMOLED screens, and most people bought it knowing that. They had 15 days to return the device, and they chose to keep it. It's simply a different technology, with advantages and disadvantages. You can do all the calibration you want, it's not gonna look as saturated as AMOLED screens.

The screen is WAY off on gamma. It is improperly calibrated. We are not trying to get over saturated colors. Do you understand?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

It's becoming like the 'avforums', where all the boffs with years of audio/visual experience and thousands of pounds of calibrating equipment, give there settings for the 'best' experience with your new £/$1000.00+- set. All discussed in the greatest detail and length.
So you set them, then everyone in the family and friends say over and over "it's too dark" "why's it so dark?" "is there something wrong with it?" ..and so on
eventually you have to agree and whoop up the brightness and contrast and turn the colour down a bit ..that's better

I agree with the original topic .
The screen is inferior .
Coming from a Samsung note to the nexus 4 ....
You can tell its crap and made by lg.

The screen is great, it looks very sharp, but yes we need some calibration, just a little bit, you can put a O4x side by side with our N4 and see how the colors looks better and the 4x, and yes is the same panel, or maybe the n4 could be better because is newer.

The colour sucks on this screen as tested by EVERYONE including review sites and anandtech who tested it.
Its also clear to see when put next to an iphone or normal TV with decent settings.
Im going to the S4 soon as it lands this phone is just a toy to get me by

I don't get why people continuously start new threads about this non-issue. I previously owned a One XL and people praised that screen as one of the best in its time. After comparing the screen of the N4 and HOX, I prefer the screen on the N4 by far (stock colours). The HOX had a yellowish tint and no one complained about it. I guarantee most people who complain about the screen on the N4 don't even own a high quality IPS monitor. And now that we have pretty much full gamma calibration, go calibrate the screen to your liking.

Ahh, Anandtech and "EVERYONE" has time machines and reviewed the 4.2.2 setup?
It really is a lot better.

If you are rooted there is an app that improves the colors a great deal. Is called Nexus 4 Display Control and kids the app store. The optimum color setting is 238, 228, 240. Hope that helps
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda app-developers app

The screen on stock setting is pretty bad when it comes to calibration.... I used Franco's latest kernel and tried a few gamma settings and found one that MADE STOCK COLORS LOOK LIKE CRAP.
after 4.2.2 was released I decided to flash stock image to take the OTA and I just couldn't believe how horrendous the screen looked.
Seriously, I got used to the colors on stock and never thought the were bad until I was able to tweak the gamma settings. The screen looks absolutely beautiful now.

So is the screen THAT bad?

Hello,
As i am today a not very-pleased s3 owner, i decided that i will give Sony a try for the first time. After looking much at especially the V and the Z, i`ve decided that the Z will be the phone i will enough pleased with.
Anyway, i habe been reeding alot about this phone the last days, and i keep reading that the screen is not "good" enough, and that is something that concerns me.
So i am asking YOU GUYS that are a lucky owner of the Xperia Z; How does the screen feel like? Is it relly THAT bad as people is talking about? I really want this phone. I love sonys interface and water+dust proof is a must for me these days.
I hope someone can give me a good answer.
Appreciated !

Honestly go out and check it out for yourself.
Everyone will and can have their own opinion, but in the end it is your choice.

Thanks for responding!
I would love to check it out, but here in Norway we dont get it before 6-10Mars. I went to the store today to check out the display on the Xperia V, and i gotta say i liked it alot more than my Amoled S3.

AW: So is the screen THAT bad?
Screen is just fine. Lots of exageration.
The vieweing angles are sub-premium, this is true, but perfectly ok. First its only the colours which wash out a bit, its not like you wouldnt see anything anymore plus, to be honest, how often and for jow long do you look at your phone flat and sideways...?
I like the screen a lot. Nice colours to look at, insane resolution and pixel density , everything is so damn crisp and clear. I mean hello, its a flaghship after all, they dont dare to put utter bull**** in it. As I said, lots of exaggeration.

TFT with high resolution. Colors are bad.
Regards

Yesterday I tested 3 Xperia Z with bright pixel. But finally got one that has none.

Depends on your definition of good colors.
When looking at photos vs one x without BE turned on colors are pretty close to the real thing including vibrancy and saturation. Now if you are the kind of person that likes unhealthy yellow skin tones, better than real life colors than yeah colors are no good. When people say it looks washed out they actually mean it is not punchy the truth is that when you look at the real world vs s3 and one x the real world seems to be washed out

Stop this BS already... screen is very good.
The only "problem" with it is colour saturation in UI. When BE2 kicks in, and you're on 60%+ brightness, colours and brightness are amazing. And since BE2 doesn't change the screen's physical properties - it means that the screen itself is perfectly fine. The only thing you can be unhappy with is UI's default saturation values, which are quite low, probably to make the difference between media and UI very noticable.
Also, it's true - "washed out" colours are actually a lot closer to natural colours. If you want very saturated colours all the time - you might not be satisfied. If you want completely oversaturated colours - go for AMOLED, they're amazing in producing rich, highly saturated colours.

For me, coming straight from an S3 to this, it really does look washed out, no mater how you look at it.
However, I think that this is because the S3 had very over saturated colours. If you do decide to go for the XZ, you'll be disappointed at first, but it feels much more premium and you'll start to realise that the S3 seemed like it was in Shop Display Mode all the time!
Ultimately, the choice is yours, but don't be downhearted if you go for it and you're initially unhappy with the screen.
EDIT:
Which is basically what everyone else has already said here.

Maybe Sony should have added a samsung mode where it sets the saturation up to 120%, the contrast to .800 and maximum brightness to 50% so you can't see anything when outdoors.

I think you'll be happy with the screen if you upgraded from other xperia family phones. But if you will compare it side by side with other 1080 LCD phones like htc butterfly, hell even with HTC One X which has 720P and a year older, Z can't match overall display quality. Trust your eyes. To see is to believe.

All Sony screens are very good from my past experience, people are just used to over saturated colors that other companies do to their phones. Also, you eyes will strain much less when you look at Sony screens for extended period of times.
Also, I don't understand what's with the ruckus of angle viewing, seriously, how many of you out there actively view the screen from a angle? its just retarded to compare that, it's not even a point.
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2

I personally really like the screen. I hated the screen on the s3 and thought the colours looked unnatural and oversaturated. With the XZ, while it may be 'washed out' to some, I actually find the colours, contrast, etc. quite nice to look at and natural. The s3 and the like hurt my eyes. Plus viewing angles aren't half as bad as I expected them to be given all the hysteria regarding them prior to release.

I posted this in the other thread "clearing up the....."
"I have now spent 48 hours with my XZ in the UK. I really like the display. It is sharp, vibrant and realistic in terms of colour and saturation. I could not get on with the amoled display of the HTC desire and the samsung galaxy. Too unrealistic imho. The bravia engine takes it to another level for movies and pictures: It will impress your friends!
I was hesitating with the iminent release of the HTC one. I have absolutley no regrets. It is a beautiful phone and a beautiful display."

well if the only downside is "bad view angles" and "low sturation" its great display because
1. i look my fone from front not side
2. i dont like too saturated colours (red must be red not burning red example)
3. resolution n ppi is high enough to make clear and nice pic

here is some screen comparisons

Xperia z screen quality?

well i am really looking forward to this device but the only thing holding me back right now is the screen quality(all reviews have a pretty bad rating for this)...i currently have the xperia ion and i love that display(not a fan of amoleds).
I cannot personally test it as it isn't available in my country yet. But i am getting a really good deal at one of the online retailers, so i just thought it would be better to ask the real owners as to how the screen is..and are viewing angles really bad?(be2 off...as i would be using cm..nd we clearly loose b.e. funcionality as soon as the bootloader is unlocked.)
also it would be better if anyone could compare the quality to a xperia s or ion.
couldn't find a similar thread hence created this.
Thanks for your time

The screen isnt bad, people just cant adjust to change from amoled and over saturated colours. Before this I had s3. And to be honest its different but I like it and the resolution is lovely.

i had S3 with super amoled HD
BUT in my experience it doesn have any problem in display
viewing angle is prefect
i experienced viewing angle in S2 and S3 the amoled display become darker in very low angles But Xperia Z display TFT become more vivid and brighter
in some angle S3 get pink tint and S2 get blue tint and it is normal that u can see in all kind of display
in Xperia z in some angles (tOO low) u will get white tint when u look in low angle from the top corners, But still u can easily read text and see images.

Clarity/resolution

The LG V20 has a crazy crisp display. Just kidding, this is automated text so who knows if this screen is any good. So, you be the judge! A higher rating indicates that it's extremely sharp and clear, and that you cannot see pixels with your naked eye.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

i hate the image retention, my sony z3c, samsung note 4/edge not having the same issue.

Ghosting
?
It's past 1 year mark.
The screen ghosting issue is so prominent that it's annoying.
This is well known in the.forum's but it's not something that lg is talking about.
I'm going to have to find out if there is a recall or can get this fixed.
Truly disappointed.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/lg-v20-screen-burn-fixed-t3661631
Tl;dr:
Rooted: KCAL
Unrooted: SFilter/Night Screen in Google Play Store

I think Lg v20 display has a Good Pixel per inch ratio so that We can't see any dot with naked eye but thw color production is Soo Bad .....

The color reproduction on the LG panels is actually *really* good. Samsung cranks the vibrancy and saturation up on their displays because it is pleasing to most people's eyes. If anything, Samsungs color reproduction is vastly inferior with default settings. Both class of panels can be calibrated to be more correct though.
The other thing is that LGs colors are "cooler" and Samsung *always* biases towards warmer displays.

As we all knows people want Color vibrancy which Samsung is delivering actually.
I've tried to calibrate my display many time but even LG's display can't compete with Samsung's 2013 flagships display.

In what ways? And don't forget you are comparing an IPS-LCD to SAMOLED+ which will have vastly better blacks. LCDs can't yet compete on the contrast of an OLED.
I don't care what people want. They jump from one has to another and sacrifice utility for form at the drop of a hat.
I'll keep my color correct LCD that won't suffer from actual burn in
(My retention is all but nonexistent and that isn't permanent regardless)

Whatever it is.... There is no comparison between Ips LCD and SuperAmoled display .
By the way your retention problem can simply be fixed if you're rooted

You can try using the built-in Comfort View to make the display warmer. I set mine to high and it looks really close to my Galaxy Note 4, using the Basic display color option.

Yup that one. I use high on mine. Here's a comparison to my Note 4 with the basic color mode. The Note 4 is warmer here, but I'd say that it's pretty close. And a heck lot better than stock.

Screen Ghosting
XDA_RealLifeReview said:
The LG V20 has a crazy crisp display. Just kidding, this is automated text so who knows if this screen is any good. So, you be the judge! A higher rating indicates that it's extremely sharp and clear, and that you cannot see pixels with your naked eye.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
