It really looks like the lightning, and I've seen bad lighting do terrible things to a piece that is otherwise fantastic.

I wouldn't worry yet, until you see an unboxing video with proper equipment and if it STILL looks like that (or get it in hand, of course) then there's a big problem. Those pics for sure look bad but it seems the flash is cranked waaayyyyyyy up to me.

I don't think so. Flash causes sharp shadow edges. This looks more like bright ambient room lighting, or daylight/window light.

Being four options, will probably change heads and look every change in season to keep it interesting. Anyway, kudos to XM for this amazing piece. My first XM, and the best looking in my collection so far. Looking forward to Shazam.
Congrats! Glad you like it.
