Flew 4 different times today and got an initial feel for the CS ultra.
I used to have a Phantom 4 pro + which could have stood to be a little brighter in direct sunlight. That is the reason I went for the Ultra. I did pick up a 5.5" high bright to use until the ultra arrived because I got tired of repeatedly getting warnings that my mobile device CPU was overloaded and the latency was terrible. (Was using an Ipad Mini 2)
The 5.5" is the same brightness as the PH4P+. (1000 nits) Useable, but could use a bit more intensity in direct sunlight.
So, the Ultra finally got here. I did my primary tests with a Mavic Platinum because my batteries were all in need of charging on my Inspire2.
So, I compared the 5.5" High brightness directly to the 7.85" Ultra.
Nice improvement. Had no trouble seeing anything whatsoever. Larger screen was a help too.
Below is a picture of both taken in direct sunlight. The picture doesn't really show the intensity but it does show the difference between the two.
No more hoods!! No more seeking shade!! No more glare!!
Latency is noticeably less than with the Ipad or Samsung Galaxy.
I flew tonight with my Inspire 2 and got some strange warnings. Something about maximum altitude reached (at 40 feet!!) I disregarded it and was able to go higher but warnings kept popping up. Maybe a FW glitch? I will refresh tomorrow. (No, beginner mode was not on. Max altitude is set at 200 meters. Multiple flight modes selected)
Anyway, that is my first impression of it.
I am glad I got it and I'm sure I will get used to its nuances.
I WILL NOT say it was worth the wait. 27 weeks waiting for an item that already has been paid for is ludicrous! I personally think that DJI needs to stop with these advance orders on new products. Release it when it is in existence!! DJI makes excellent products and this is one, but marketing practices and customer service need a serious overhaul.
I was getting angry that my order was placed over 6 months ago and I was seeing them show up on ebay from other dealers. I ordered mine from a very reputable dealer (Florida Drone Supply) and his supply of them was sent to him later than other dealers. Not fair.

But have you glued the front to stop it rotating or moving around?
