Apparently the manufacturers portable devices, in an effort to present to the public a developed novelty before competitors, they forget to properly control the quality of manufactured smartphones and tablets. Therefore, more and more often you can hear from owners of mobile equipment about the occurrence serious problems, in particular with a display.

Smartphone Sony Xperia S went on sale relatively recently. But the joy of many users from a bargain has been replaced by disappointment as a result of the discovered problems of the Sony Xperia related to the display, namely, defective pixels and a patchy greenish glow at the bottom of the screen.

Most users did not discover these shortcomings immediately. Some of them learned by studying information about possible problems this device in the Internet. Others claim that they noticed these low-quality nuances only some time after using the Sony Xperia S. But in order to notice “dead” pixels on a screen with a similar high resolution, you need to look at the display very carefully. The presence of light spots will also not be easy to see immediately, for this you need to use a solid background on the screen and shaded lighting.

Sony Mobile has responded to a number of complaints regarding this issue, with the company reporting that the smudge issues are related to color calibration, which will be resolved soon through a software update.

And about the drop-down pixels, you can contact the suppliers and exchange the purchased low-quality device. In order for the exchange to be approved, at least 3 defective pixels must be detected on the smartphone screen.

Also found problems Sony Xperia Z Ultra version C6802. Many owners of the model complain about malfunctions while working with the screen, especially with regard to the problem associated with the power button. Some people have to press the button several times to turn on the display, while others manage to turn on the smartphone with ease, but there is no image. But a small number of users managed to solve this problem on their own by using a combination of a combination of the power button with top volume buttons.

There is another common drawback of this model - the formation of green stripes on the screen during device activation, but similar problems Sony Xperia has already been solved with the help of the released update 14.1.B.0.475.

You can consider all the above problems of the Sony Xperia as minor flaws in the manufacturing company, but the cost of Sony smartphones and tablets is quite high, so buyers will not want to spend their savings on a product, even with minor defects.
