The clarity is also excellent, as are the white and black levels. There is no blue or grayish glow.

Unfortunately, not all changes in the software positive. As the new home screen Blink Feed fell against us. It is a visual representation of what happened, for example, Twitter and Facebook and take the whole home screen space. In the Netherlands are also a limited number of other streams to add.

A number of settings and functions in 5 Sense adjusted so that we found them confusing and sometimes illogical. The app-list scrolls vertically instead of the horizontal mode of the rest of the software. In addition, the e-mail widget removed. The option to save the battery is convenient, but rigorous.
