That's an optical illusion based on how the stitch is formed and what type of thread is being used. it's more pronounced on a zig zag machine than a straight stitch machine, and it's common to all ages of machines not just new ones.
I maintain and service my own machines and will put the stitches from most of my machines up against any high end new machine. Even my low end Juki 27 makes stitches just as nice as my BFFs high end Brother.
