there are tiny pixels that run diagonally althroughout the screen, most noticeable on white and gray background, and the backlight is flickiring going bright and dim if adaptive brightness is on.  thanks

Why do you have 2 accounts?

when you say "tiny pixels" are you referring to the digitizer?

sorry I could have entered another account maybe, since I had  a previous account for my xperia x . I am not really sure about the technical terms for it, maybe its the digitizer and I think there are a lot of people mentioning about this concern about their xz1 online.

Really hard to help you without visual, I have an XZ1 right here but I don't see it, if you can post a picture or more details I can test.

hi its hard for me to get a clear picture, if you will max the brightness and open a white background page like messaging or google page, and bring your eyes 4 inches closer to the screen. you will see like pixel grids. I cannot say if this is normal or not and if this can be fixed with software update? since my xperia x before has a very smooth screen, and the xz1 is a flagship phone but seems to me the lcd panel is made from cheap material? I'm sorry I'm just stating my opinion. thank you

Hello.

I can confirm the small diagonal lines like pixel grids. I can see them when there is white or grey background like in Google Play store or Instagram. At the beginning i thought they changed the design of the app but looks like they didn't. Strange is the fact that sometimes i can't see them so maybe this is software related.
