iPad iPad Air 4 screen tinge

[Kjs100]

I posted on another thread about an issue with a yellow tinge on my Air 4 (shows up more as pink in my photo) and others have had this issue; including on iPad Pros in the past - there is a thread from 2017 about a yellow screen on iPad Pros.

Thought Id create a post just in case some people also have a warm screen but havent noticed it - l find the warm screen on the Air 4 more difficult to read than my original Air so I'll be returning. Some people reported in 2017 that they preferred the warm tone and found it easier on their eyes, but I find the whiter screen is less straining on my eyes.

I reported to Apple in online support - they just advised me to make a reservation at a store for someone to look at the issue. Told them I wasnt wasting my time (I visited the store yesterday and they turned me away without a reservation). I asked for an email address to lodge a complaint about the screen but they wouldnt provide - had to transfer me to a senior advisor who lodged a complaint for me within chat.

You can tweak the colour balance and white point in the accessibility settings. Try that before you return it.

This thread took longer to start than I thought it would ?

Tried these and night shift is off. Same. Gets notably pinker when tilt iPad to change viewing angle.

Same thing on my iPad Air 4 , it has terrible color shift too! If the iPad is tilted the slightest it goes even pinker. I am definitely not getting caught up in this screen lottery again, back it goes for a refund.

Oh dang. I’ll definitely be on the look out to see if this is fairly widespread. Hopefully not

A review I watched tonight mentioned how much worse the color shift is on the Air compared to the Pro.
