    Baykko, 18 Oct 2019So many people hating on Sony... in an article about Google... moreIf GSMArena dealt with trolls their boards would be 50-70% quieter.

      So many people hating on Sony... in an article about Google Pixel 4? GSM Arena's moderators should deal with so many trolls.

      In any case, I'm sure what makes this screen so good is Google's proprietary programming, yet the Google Pixel is like a phone made with the purpose of stealing your info with such a small amount of storage and Google being so deeply integrated to everything within it.

        It can be the best screen ever but on a 2700 mAh battery is a complete joke.
        For what sake anyone woud like to have the best screen ever when they plug the pphone off from charger and it says battery drained connect the plug and charge the battery,

            Since they rate so many recent flagship displays as Visually Indistinguishable from Perfect, what does a point or 2 here or there matter with respect to colour accuracy? They should just state VIfP, then move on to full-panel brightness/sunlight legibility scores.

For example, 0.4 JNCD. The pixel 4 isn't the best they simply state it matches other best phones in the area. It has not set any records.

Of course the calibration & tweaks from Sony. Pretty much like Huawei ask Sony to customize their camera sensor exclusive for them, hence IMX600 & IMX608.

                      I never said anything bad about it, in fact Xperia 1 are one of the best display as of now.
