hi all...i've just bought an imac 27 and this is the screenshot of the test...is there yellow tinge? thanks

Dude, first of all the image is TOO BIG!!!!!


Second.... you took a SCREEN SHOT. :rolleyes:

Of course a screen shot will NOT have any yellow tint. I'll let you figure out why yourself, as you edit your image to fit within the normal margins.

Thank you.
 
Just opened a new 21.5" iMac.
Turned it on and a white screen popped up 1st thing.
The bottom looked all yellowish like it was cigerette stained yellow.

Very very noticable.

The guy on the phone said they would exchange it and it should not have any yellow.
 
"If you stand up and run in place for 5min, then you drink 3 shots of Mountain Dew, then spin around in your chair 17 times, put up an all white (or grey) wallpaper, set the screen to max brightness, place your head 5 inches from the screen, stare without blinking for 120seconds, then sit normal and look at your screen, you will notice a yellow tinge."

Hahaha. Lol.

I agree it has gotten out of hand. Lol. :D

He supposed you are looking at the image on the 27" imac or he thought the screen shot was like a copy machine.:p
 
Well at least the 27" Mac'ers are not alone now with their yellow screen problems. They have the new iPhone4 owners to keep them company now it seems :(
 
I've had two i7 iMacs before the one I have now, but none of them had a noticeable yellow tinge as far as I can tell. So I don't want to say the issue is completely solved, but I do think it has gotten better.

All three models are from the Czech Republic factory.
 
So if the iPhone 4 yellow spot issues are caused by the evaporation process not being complete, how does this reflect, if at all, for yellow iMac screens?
