Hey friends,
So i've actually bought the Xperia Z5 Compact, and was trying for a day or two. Everything seemed fine until i noticed that the internals of the IPS screen is very visible in normal or bright sunlight. Check the image attached. There are some lines appearing which seems to be the IPS screen internals right? Is this appearing for all Z5C's, or its an issue. It doesnnt bother me normally, but it is very noticeable under daylight or direct sunlight. Should i be worried?

Actually very common in Xperia phones. On my z3c, I noticed the same thing especially when in direct sunlight. It's the touchscreen digitizers and all phones have them but Xperia phones are more pronounced. It's completely normal

This is normal, its a some kind of grid that is used to help with glove mode on, so the touchscreen can react to your touch with gloves on your hands.
i have never seen this on any other device..i got an Xperia Z3 Tablet compact, and an Xperia Z1 Compact..nothing sort..hmm...if its normal..glove mode makes sense...i dnt know if any other brand has glove modes..

There are less touch sensor points on my Z5C, and I don't understand why mine are dots, yours are lines?
Yeah see those on my z5c too... Only against harsh light shining on the screen... My huawei has gloves mode too but I don't see any dots or lines...
Maybe installing a tampered glass screen could help mask it?

I got a replacement phone because the headset speaker died on my original one. I don't remember having this issue on the original phone. Can you guys take a picture of a white wall or ceiling in medium light and see if you have this problem. Otherwise I might have to see about another exchange.
Also, it seems that this has been a problem since the i9100 was introduced but I don't remember it before.

that's a light issue, not a camera issue. turn your flash on. besides, when is there ever a time that I need a picture of the ceiling?
(by the way, I checked this on 3 phones, the ones in my signature, and it does it on all 3 phones. Then I turn on my flash on the gs2 (since the other ones don't have a flash) and it goes away. in order not to get it without your flash, you have to be in more natural sunlight)
You've never taken a picture of something white before?
The ceiling is just an easy example.

I have, but if it's outside I don't get this red spot. And if it's inside, I don't get it either if I use the flash. I don't see that as a bug in the camera. My wife is a photographer. This is coming from her. It's the light.

I also just took some pictures of things around the house that are on a white background. like pictures on our wall. I took some with flash, and some without. Now it appears that this red spot for me only shows up if the picture is completely white and I don't use the flash. If anything else is in the picture, it's gone - with or without the flash. Seems like a non-issue to me.
Read up on how to do a white balance for your camera.
As you go further out from the optical center of the camera, the angle which the light makes with the normal to the detector increases. This in turn means that, toward the edges, there's more chance that a light ray will travel through more than one of the colour filters, resulting in a color shift at the edges.
Here, it looks as though the camera white-balance has fixed a colour shift around the edges, at the expense of the center shifted to pink.
Phrases to google if you're interested: "pixel crosstalk", "bayer filter", CFA.
All smaller imagers are prone to this; they're simply too short for the optics to be close to telecentric (i.e. all rays hit detector at 90°). In a scene where there's a better range of colour and lighting, you likely wouldn't notice any problem at all. If you do, then cell-phone cameras aren't for you

Hi,
is it common or I have to request for repair?

Mine looks the same. I would say it's normal and no point in banging your head about it because it is only visible in very dark scenario on only black screen. Who uses there phone to look at black color in dark room? Nobody normal.
It's the way AMOLED screens work.
I must say, compared to how the screen of my I9100 looked after a few months use the I9300 seems a bit better with this kind of problem.
The screen of the I9100 looked like someone had poured black ink all over the screen, even on darker backgrounds, not just black.
A few dots here and there on the I9300 doesn't bother me.
The only time I see them are when I'm looking att NSFW content in bed at night and the wife rolls over att looks att the screen and i have too quickly change app
My old GT-I9100 which my wife uses bow has the same issue and so does my current phone.
I believe thos is normal, since all phones I've seen with amoled screen have the same issue.
And in my case it doesn't bother me, since I don't watch movies with lots of dark scenes in night.

Yes it's common and it's one of the several downsides of the Amoled screen. This phone would be close to perfect if it had the screen from the one x.

Have the same on my phone.
Yes i have the same problem on my s3.
but here's what i don't get, why is the screen not black all over. shouldn't all the pixels be turned off when displaying a black screen?
And it's certainly not an amoled issue, because my sgs1 does not have this problem. at least it is not visible because when the sgs1 displays a black screen the screen is much more black then the s3 or the s2 I had before.
Is the new amoled screens just cheaper produced?
just shot a photo (of bad quality) to prove my point:
(Both the s1 and the s3 displays the same black picture with screen brightness = 100% And the s1 is actually so dark that it is hard to see it.
wierd
i have the same problem too.. but does not have any problem with it..
I put my Ultra down on my console where I happened to have two loose staples lying from a package I'd opened earlier.
When I picked it up, the staples were magnetically attached to the bottom right corner of the phone - around where the speaker is.
Has anyone else noticed the phone having magnetic properties?
Speakers have magnets in them. This phone is just thin enough and the staples just light enough that they stick. No biggie.

Fun fact (not really): Phones that support wireless charging uses an electromagnetic field to transfer energy between two objects, so they have magnets under the back cover. Not a lot of people (Nexus 5 owners for example) are aware of this, so they get surprised when things "sticks" to the back.

That is probably why @hamdogg has so many issues with his Ultra, he must have a knock-off

Not sure what is wrong with my Z2, but there seems to be some random bright spots on the screen (most notable with white or light grey background, eg in messages, etc).. The cluster is about 2mm in diameter and in the lower left of the screen.
Anyone else experiencing random bright spots (not dead/stuck pixels) on screen? Is this normal?

Perhaps its dot pattern on the panel that you saw.

Never happens. you should get the exchange
Friend of mine has same problem, i think its due to overheating because he has the spots at exactly same place and its where the phone heats up most.

This is what I had
Yellow tint isusse. You should go to sony service center to replace bad display.
Google Xperia S Yellow tint to learn more.
Not sure if it's new but it popped up and I enabled it today.
Anyone know how efficient it is compared to OLED panel?

Ambient display on anything other than an OLED panel is waste of energy.
An OLED panel can choose to turn on only specific pixels and keep the other pixels totally off, thus saving energy.
Ambient display on OLED panels does exactly that. It merely lights up a few hundred pixels for ambient display and keeps others totally off, thus using very less power. This is the reason why OLED panels have deeper blacks. Because the pixels are kept off to depict black colour.
Our poco Panel on the other hand is a LCD display. LCD screens can either be fully on. Or fully off. This is because LCDs have a backlight to illuminate the screen as a whole as opposed to OLED panels where each LED pixel has its own light source.
Keeping the LCD screen on for such long times will drain away battery and might also affect its life. This is not bad only for the battery, but also the screen.
OLED panels barely use power while using Ambient Display. And regarding the screen, the clock keeps moving a few pixels from time to time to prevent screen burn in on an OLED panel.
In short, this is not even remotely efficient.
+1 what he said, plus your mobile will charge slowly because it has to keep whole display backlit.

It's a micro use of screen brightness, so don't affect the charging time.

I activated this feature too and it's good, only for when the cellphone it's charging, so it's ok.
