As you can see in the attached image there is a difference in the screens of the two motog's. Which one is considered normal and which one is defective? If they are both normal but from different vendors which is the preffered one?
thanks.
Different settings?

I did try that too...there is still a variation.
I have see YouTube reviews stating the difference aswell. Just wondering which one of the two is considered to be closer to normal according to you guys.
I get similar with left side screen on my phone

We have to Moto Gs in my house, exactly the same, one is yellowish and the other one looks blueish.
The yellowish was bought in december and the other in february.

Motorola uses mulitple vendors for the display panel . Its a result of that .My first moto was cool bluish with a hint of pink (actually looked good) . My second was very warm and the white balance was very off. Looked very dull and drab . Had to return it because of that. My current one is warm but better than the second one . I think for viewing videos and photos the warmer one is better and the bluish -cooler one is better for viewing apps . Unless the warm looking display looks too bad (like the one I had ) either one is fine . You get used to it .

I prefer the one on the right actually, feels more pleasing to the eye.
I'd choose one in the right.

I recently purchased a z1 compact and i gotta say the screen on the moto g is fantastic compared to it.
On the z1 compact its impossible to get a natural looking white colour . Its more yellow and overall im very happy with the crispness and saturation on the moto g screen.
Great price, great phone, great screen(no matter who made it).
I don't know if you can see but my screen actually look rusty red against light......when on...its a bid pink....like the one you showed on right.....looks pretty good to me though

the left one is way warmer than the right one, and it looks better to be honest
I feel its a little too warm, the white is actually yellow.
Both displays good look. Those may be due to different display manufacturers. You can check for pixels. ..
After purchasing the Mi4c and waiting for it for three weeks, I keenly unboxed it and started tweaking the living hell out of it. Among others I installed several Google apps, the google account manager (switch off sync in China as it will draaaain your battery), and MIUI 5.10.16 dev. So far so good.
However, when I tried the camera, the online shots of which were very promising, I was so disappointed I ordered the Nexus 5X straight away. In any circumstance that isn't sunny, the rear-facing camera will perform horribly. What I mean is that, unless you stabilize the phone securely with two hands, any shot in a fluorescent light or otherwise slightly dim environment will result in heavy blur. As if you were shaking the phone while you took the shot. Comparing with the Nexus 5 (2013), where you could take a shot from your wrist while riding a bicycle and still have an acceptable result.
Can anyone else confirm? Do I have the worse of two sensors, is it just the tiny objective, or is it software-related? Or is it just what I should learn to accept from a 1500 RMB phone?
Hello mate,
this is what you should learn from a 1500 RMB phone, camera sux as soon as conditions are not optimum. Tried a lot of apps, but the results is still the same. Some apps will focus better though (lenovo super camera v5 for instance).
Nevertheless, a part from the camera, the phone is way better with CM12.1 than the nexus 5X which handle apps horribly again... Very slow to open and reload apps. Which is kind of a big deal.
upload some pics if possible..
let's see it...
Maybe the camera app just sucks hard? You should try others to compare...
These are all shot from the wrist with minimal effort at stabilizing, the way I used to snap pictures with my Nexus 5
Try to take a few indoor shots with a steady hand. It could be that the software uses a quite long shutter time, which results in a blurry shot if the hand isn't steady.
The second step would be: manually set the shutter time according to your preference.
Sure, steadying the phone entirely will work. But that's not really a solution, as you often take a quick snap, the device is light and therefore in almost all situations your hand will be unsteady. It felt like the nexus5 was able to use shorter shutter times in low-light conditions and took steady pictures almost all of the time.
potentially a software problem; after flashing CM Rom the camera improved significantly (also switched from N5 to 4C)
agreed, it got significantly better with the CM rom. Still fairly noisy and a little blurry though. Looks like the camera app (I use Google Camera 4.0) actually takes its time to focus rather than attempting to deliver the quickest shot possible.

He already has, yesterday
Maybe we can have some more samples from another camera app ? We know you have the Sony sensor now, it could be interesting to see if someone has a Samsung one and how is it different in picture quality.
Here are some, as your see low light ones aren't very good and blurred. But even the sunlight ones are a little grainy and not perfectly crisp. Sony sensor.

So, i'm really very confused now... someone says it is very great (e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63730763&postcount=44) and you say it is bad and open a bug!
I would prefer great camera and battery over LTE band 20, but here i don't understand yet if mi4c have or not great camera... Can you please help me understand? Thanks
Well... Depends by user.. 50% say camera is awesome 50% not - You can see something like this on many phones
There is no choice under 5 inches and only 5 inches you can find with good specs are with huge bezels...
I came from a Samsung S4 and i had to buy Honor 7 but i'm not really happy the device is amazing but 5.2 and the size make one hand operation really hard...
And right now Honor 7 is one of the smallest flagship smartphones of 2015.
If you look under 140x70 specs are really really bad or don't have microsd slot as xiaomi mi4...
I heard new xiaomi mi5 will be at least 5.2 inches do you know why of this trend?
Over 5 inches even with really small bezels are not smartphones anymore but phablets.Wondering why i can't belive i'm the onlyone unhappy of this trend...
5.2 is big is not normal ore even compact for a smartphones unless you have huge hands one han operation is possible but really uncomfortable...
I don't mind if new smartphones are thin as a credit card if i can't hold well in my hand is really stupid...
Also the jump from 1280x720 to full hd is stupid...1600x900 would be more than resonable for 4.7 to 5 inches cause with just HD you still see pixels but you don't need full hd.
Or you can find 5.2 with >500 ppi or 4.7 with less than 300 ppi so stupid again...
What do you think about?

Oh i can't see any stupid usless >5.5 inches in the first 5 devices...
WTF LG MOTOROLA HUAWEI MEIZU XIAOMI WAKE UP !!!
Sony Z5 Compact is a good choice for a phone under 5". It sucks that phones getting bigger and bigger,
yup the Sony Z compact series is considered the best when it comes to phones under 5"
You would be better off asking the manufacturers these questions rather than a hacking forum that has nothing to do with determining screen sizes
Everybody wants a bigger phone these days. The people who want something below 5 inches are in the minority overall. I don't understand it really, because big phones almost are forcing you to use both hands at times, which goes against mobility and ease of use actually.
Honestly, the mobiles under 5 inchs either come with low features or premium (like apple). Why don't you purchase atleast 5 inch smartphone? There are many choices for 5 inches.
Under 5"? Only devices with any decent specs in that range are the Sony Z Compact's, Do not be fooled into buying anything from Samsung that has the word 'Mini' 'Neo' or 'Lite' in it, they're rubbish.
The reason big screens are more popular is really very simple. The days when a Smartphone was primarily a phone are long gone. People buy a portable media device, not a phone. And as such the rare few that don't wan to watch films and series on their phones have to content with lower specs.
Mind you, the manufacturers have a very good point. Why would one need high specs when you won't actually use them? For multimedia use and gaming, high specs make sense. But those both cause the user to want a bigger screen.
At any rate, high-end specs rarely fit inside the small container of a <5" device.

Isn't it ironic, then, that I can operate my 5.7" Note 3 with one hand quite comfortably, and I'm a woman with size 5 hands....
The trick? Flexible fingers.
Would you buy a 5 inch >75% screen ratio?
With a great battery >3000 mah sacrificing a bit of thickness for a much better ergonomic one hand use?
I'm very disappointed all new compact device start from 5.1 or 5.2 with unconfortable big and squared bezels...
Remember S4 and G2 they had really great proportions pretty easy to use with one hand...
Can't understand why manufacturers still pushing phablet and just phablet >5.5 every day and compact are 5.2 wich is definitly not compact...
Do you think is very important to have flat thin as much as you can but large as tennis racket?
We have no choice all flagships 2015 are freaking huge for one hand use really uncomfortable!!!

Iphone 6 outperforms 6 plus 7 to 1
http://www.androidauthority.com/should-more-oems-make-small-phones-648610/
Is not everybody want bigger is you don't have choice...
I understand >5.5 inches cause before you buy you already know your are going to buy a phablet big screen but two hands mode...
But what is the reason of 5.1 or 5.2 with huge bezels if you can do one just 5 inches with few bezels easy for one hand use?
You really think there is a big difference between 5.0 and 5.2?
For 0.2 inches and a bit of less thickness you would sacryfing one hand mode?
135x68x10 mm(in the biggest point with round ergonomic back) and >3000 mah this would be a great real smartphone not a freaking phablet

fullhd vs 2K on 5 inches
Try to be honest can notice really the difference besides lower performance and faster battery drain on 2K...
In my opinion is totally usless

Of course, I agree with you mate. Size does matters a lot! One should see a screen size before making any purchase on new device.

We looked at the Sony phones but she hated the squareness, as you mentioned. Was hoping maybe a smaller manufacture that I hadn't heard of may make something similar to the oneplus developers but a smaller phone. Guess not.

Let me tell you i had Samsung S4 for 2 years with a really perfect size even smaller than S3 and i couldn't find anything better than Honor 7 wich is great amazing 10 times better than laggy Samsungs and with excellent built quality but damn 5.2 is still to big...

She's coming from an S3 (I also had an S3 before jumping to the LG G3 last year)and all she does is complain about how slow it is and how terrible the battery life has gotten. I've heard a few people say touchwiz has gotten better on the S6 and isn't such a resource/battery hog but I don't think I'm willing to trust Samsung again. I'll have to look into the Honor 7, hadn't seen it before.

Consider also Honor 6 slightly lower specs than 7 but better size and weight (same amazing battery)

5 inch max - she said
I'd personally rather have a phone with a little extra bezel instead of a super thin phone. I have an S4 and although it's a great phone, it's super thin. More bezel = more strength to the screen and less chance it cracks when dropping. I have never heard of "Honor 7" before. I'll have to look that up. Sounds like an Asian model.
I do agree that all the flagships are 5+ inches. The phones that are around 4.3" are using specs of 2012. Now...the LG Transpyre has a quad core CPU but has crappy internal storage (4GB). No idea if there is an 8GB or 16GB model. It's sold for prepaid service.
Rate this thread to express how well you can see the OnePlus 5's display outdoors. In case you've been playing Minecraft for 18 months straight, you might not known how to get outside anymore. Well, find the door and walk through it. A higher rating indicates that it has very high maximum brightness and thus fantastic outdoor visibility in direct sunlight.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I find I fairly often have to adjust it to its brightest (when the automatic adjustment hasn't) in full sun.
No issues here, screen is superb.
Very few issues with this phone, camera when compared to my last phone.
What I would like to have was a better access to the brightness bar. Instead of two swipe downs from the status bar, something more easy and pratical to just quick change the brightness.
Some AOSP roms had swiping on the status bar to change the brightness.

You can swipe down with two fingers.
Personally visibility on sun is not that good as I had on OnePlus One or atleast I can't read nothing not direct sun. :/
I asked on other threads about screen legibility, and many owners told me that it's perfect readable under direct sunlight, even more than Mate 9.

I got the Mate 9 Pro and One Plus 5, and honestly my Mate 9 Pro is better under direct sunlight than my OP 5.
If I compare the OP 5 with my Xiaomi Mi Mix, the OP 5 is better under direct sunlight than Mi Mix. I also got the S8 Plus and that is better than the OP 5 under direct sunlight, but not for much.
I still love this phone.

The phone is already difficult to hold with one hand..
For me, it's decent but not great. Better than the Asus Zenfone 2 I came from, but I could definitely have some more brightness under direct Indian sunlight.
I find it pretty hard to see the screen but....I'm 54. You younguns still have good eyes. LOL (As you get older your vision needs more contrast/brightness in general.)
But, it's not just about brightness. It's about glare/reflectivity. If there are a lot of things other than the sun, like all manner of things in the world around us projecting their shiny bits at my phone, then it's mostly unreadable.
I'm going to try a screen protector that is not so reflective.

Well, I don't have the mate 9 I have the mate 9 Pro. Honestly I like both, the Mate 9 Pro is a beautiful phone, nice camera, beautiful design. The OP 5 is a nice phone, super fast, camera not impressive, I have the jelly effect, but not bad enough for me to return my phone.
At the end you have to weight your options, do you want good looking phone with good pictures and great design, good battery life, go for the Mate 9. If you want a super fast phone, with good pictures depending on the light and depending on your shaking hands, great battery life and good development support go for the OP 5.

I had the Mate 9 Pro and replaced it with the Oneplus 5.
They both have their strengths, it comes down to what you are looking for.
Something that surprised me though is that I feel the display of the Oneplus 5 is actually better. Even though it's 1080 and the Huawei is 2k.
Considering the price difference, the Oneplus is the better phone. It's also faster and has a better battery life.
The Huawei has infrared port, smarter implementations in the software such as knuckle gestures, screen recording and so on.
In the camera department, the Huawei has a much better front camera because of the auto focus.
The rear camera is also better in the Huawei, but Oneplus gained in a little with the latest update. The Huawei camera is more consistent, whereas the Oneplus is hit and miss sometimes.
And lastly the Huawei has a better design. More stylish.
One of the best performing phones in daylight as it's oled, no problems here at all. Might need to adjust brightness at best.

You must be yoking. First you're told how to use two fingers rather then one finger two times. Now you can't hold it.
Max brightness is way too low. Wish my OP3 were alive so I could compare them directly, it looks like 5's brightness is lower.
For me, brightness could be a little bit better.
Swipe left and right in the status bar for brightness would be very nice.
Just chiming in to say that I'm LOVING this phone so far. The fit and finish is great. It looks really nice and the build quality is top notch. The screen is fantastic and i love the way it curves down slightly at the edges. Initially I was annoyed at a gesture navigation bug that would override your default launcher and replacing it with the stock launcher when swiping up to go home, but that was fixed in a software update. The battery life is Fking PHENOMINAL! I regularly get over 8 hours SOT. Like every single day. It's insane. The camera is pretty good, but night mode was REALLY lacking. Also, detail was a little soft. But I was able to download a version of Gcam 7.0 that works completely and with Night sight mode, this camera takes amazing pictures in low light situations.
My only complaint right now is that global dark mode isn't working totally. The settings menu is still bright white. I'm sure that will be fixed when they push Android 10 by the end of December as they have said. I am a little hesitant though. The Pie rom is SO GOOD with regard to battery life and everything else, that I'm honestly in no hurry to update to Android 10 as I don't want to chance getting inferior battery life or any new bugs it may introduce.
Lastly, and for comparison, I own the Galaxy S10+, OnePlus 7 Pro, and Pixel 3XL.
How is the shutter speed compared to the OP7 Pro? My OP7 Pro has random delays on the shutter, which has cost me quite a few pictures of my son, as he was moved right after I hit the button causing a good portion of my pictures come out quite blurred.
Hi, nice to read. What version (link?) of Gcam works completely for you?

Shutter speed seems suprisingly ok. When I got the phone I was annoyed to find out it didn't have any kind of OIS. I was also concerned about picture quality, especially when zoomed in, as a result of the OIS. However, pictures come out looking pretty good despite the issue.
