Normal or not?

I have just received a replacement iMac as the one I recently ordered had a fan issue.

Having them both side-by-side and set to the same brightness, I can tell that the old one has a noticeably more 'brilliant' white. The new one has a slightly more 'dull' looking white. I'm sure it's something one can easily adjust to after a few days of use, but having them side by side does have me a little concerned that the panel is a dud or something?

In the calibrator they are both set to the same native white point.
