the screen on this thing is so good, you feel like you are holding a water/oil colored painting rather than a phone.


I can't wait to hear how you describe the HTC One's screen then.

Seriously, the XZ screen is nothing special. Infact it is the worst screen in flagship phones by a significant margin. The rest of the phone is great though. I was so close to getting one but the screen was mediocre for me.The pricing is also another factor.


To be honest, I never trust reviewers, they went on and on about how good the AMOLED screen on a samsung phone looked, and each time I see it I feel like the screen is glitching and is showing a blue haze on the side and oversaturated color hue, at first I thought this was a software glitch so I updated it, didn't solve it , so i restored OS to its factory settings and then back again , and it still persisted, this isn't my phone so I thought the owner messed the screen or something, so I went and looked at the screen on the G Note 2 since they also brag on how much it looks great, and it had the same "issue" the colors pink looked red and blue looked like it came out of of a lighsaber and the green looked like an atari neon green, everything looked like that new Far Cry Blood Dragon game, and I still have no idea why people think AMOLED is such a great screen. 

/end rant

so tl;dr I will not trust reviewers until I see it myself, I'll try an HTC One whenever I got back to a store that sell one.
