    I went to Telus today set to buy the z30 but when I looked at the demos display closely i could see jagged lines and edges on the browser and camera app icon. Are all screens like this due to the low PPI or was it a faulty display?

    Um no. Not sure how you could be seeing jaggies on a near 300 ppi device which apple classifies as retina.

    That's what I was thinking and was really surprised to see. Do you have a Z30 to check, though? The only two apps I really noticed this on were for Browser and Camera, and instead of clean circular leans you could see edges.

    Thanks.

    The icons are scaled down from the Z10. There is no issue with the quality or functionality of the display. The newer versions of the OS should have the corrected icons scaled down to the proper size and have no jagged lines.

    I'm going to see if another store nearby has an updated demo unit. Thanks.

    He says he sees jagged lines because people tell him there are jagged lines. Sheesh.

    Like playbookster, I am looking at both apps and they look fine. Let us know what you fine when you try a different store.
