You need to compare JPEGs. And also scenes that do have color in them (like the playground), and some with subtile color and portraits.

Having that, I don't see an "amazing" difference in color between my X-E1 and X-E3. A difference: Yes. Amazing: No.

Agree with this. I’ve had every generation of X-Trans over the years (I have an XE1 and X-Pro3 right now), take a lot of JPEG’s, and have gotten caught up in all these comparisons many times before.

The truth is, while there are differences between X-Trans 1, 2, 3 and 4, I can’t choose one that I consistently prefer in every situation. They all have great colour in their own right and none are more “amazing” than the other. The later sensors certainly have better dynamic range, and low light performance though, not to mention more shots in focus of course
