For anyone who have seen, or own a Z2, could you tell me how does the Z21 1920x1080 monitor looks like please ?
Is it still the same premium LCD ? Which people says it has high color accuracy, and nice contrast ?
Because I didn't notice sony mentioning that it is a premium display etc with the high aRGB coverage like they did with VPC-Z1..
Although I've read several times that Z1 has a great color accuracy compared to any other laptop. I really hope that the Z2 has better colors than Z1 which looks way too flashy and fluorescent. It looks unnatural.
For example I dislike red and especially light green colors of my Z1, it's beautiful but some images looks completely unnatural compared to my calibrated Dell U2311H and to what I see outside.. I once thought my camera was crappy lol.. but it wasn't.

To me, it looks exactly the same as Z1
If I recall correctly there was only one manufacturer of 1080p 13" screen (Toshiba) - as there are still no other 1080p 13" laptops over there, I'd assume it is still the same vendor as there is no choice. -
Thanks, still good to know that quality shouldn't have decreased... unlike the apocalyptic VAIO SA/SB

It might just be me, but my Z2's 1080p display seems to be a tad less over saturated than my Z1's. Reds/Blues - Never really had an issue with greens.
-
in my case, the Z2 panel is better than Z1.
I will post some pictures later -
because I don't really like the over saturation of my Z1...
Maybe it's not always noticeable with green, though I noticed on the three different FHD monitor my VPC-Z1 had [(X____X) I pray every night for the god of the warranties]
Once I took pictures into a beautiful greenhouse in Paris with tropical vegetation... it really looked bad and unnatural because of the over saturation. -
Comparing the Z2 and Z1 screens side by side, the Z2 looks veryyy yellowish when displaying website with a white background, not nessarily bad tho coz it makes colors more warm so (at least my eyes) feel less strained. That's my initial impression atm.

Saw it yesterday , a collegue has the 1080p screen. Compared to my VGN Z (1600x900) is looked as if it is bit more glossy, but still very sharp and beautiful.

Agreed. The Z2 is very yellow. I have heard (whether or not this is true) that an LCD screen always shows with a more yellow hue at the beginning, and over time, it heads more towards blue. This could be completely wrong, but I have seen the same phenomenon with every new iPhone I have bought. Always very yellow when first used. Later on it gets a more gorgeous buish white hue. I have Z series sitting right next to the Z2 right now and the Z2 is a very stale yellow color.
Im a little bummed because the keyboard backlighting is also very stale yellow. Its not a nice LED white/blue like I hoped. I will never understand why these companies continue to fail to produce more contemporary lighting on their stuff. -
VPC-Z2 display quality ?
