I agree that the monitors on the CX 777 are pretty bad. The CX A350 is an improvement.

However, this issue is not confined to CX. I recently flew an AA 788 in J and the screen quality was not very good. Resolution was decent (maybe 720p), but the black levels were horribly crushed. Maybe the screen was defective, but dark scenes were almost unwatchable.
