I quote this for those who are saying that yellowish is "normal" and is the expected by apple, like i saw perfect displays with no yellowish, THERE ARE PERFECT DISPLAYS, so stop lying yourself, dont let Apple play with your money and dont be that kind of apple zombies saying that "this worse display is the tend this year, if you dont like it just configure color filter" LOOOOOOOOL more than 1000€ phone...

This issue has been there since iPhone X. But the QC has become a lot worse now.
I'm not so sure, the yellow tint has been an issue since Apple switched to LED (iPhone X). It's much more prevalent during the first weeks. I remember buying the iPhone X and was shocked by the yellow screen but then I was told it was normal for LED until I got a replacement unit (3D touch problem) with perfect whites.
There's a thread for this every single year, just google it.
We can only speculate but to me it's clear apple are cutting corners to increase yield.
The screens could be fixed by proper calibration which I hope they are doing with returned units at least.
Well said fully agree on what you said.
People telling us to use a colour filter for a £1199 256Gb max phone is outrageous...
Serial is F2LDM week build on this phone is week 45 colour Blue 12 Pro Max 256gb
The other two faulty phones are both made in week 39 and 41
I do not agree with people telling to get on with it and be happy with yellow green black whatever tint you got. The problem is for me personally there is no alternative to iphone out there lol. Id rather have yellow screen iPhone over any android device lol.
My 3rd replacement is coming next month. So fingers crossed.
So funny seeing everyone go through the exact same process every year -
maybe it’s intentional?
Maybe it’s software?
Maybe it’ll be fixed by apple?
I swear they are on it!
Wait maybe the phones are just like that this year
Wait...some people have perfect phones..hows that possible?
Ok seems like if you want it fixed you have to return the phone and buy another and try again.
yeah so that last one? That’s exactly what I said in the OP. A lot of people wasted a month to arrive at what I told you people day 1. But don’t worry, I didn’t expect anything less after 10 years.

This is normal. Each year iPhones get more and more yellow. And when new they’re even more yellow, the do become more white with use. I see no problem here. Nothing for Apple to fix.
Plus I guess we're just ignoring the fact that OLED panels have faster blue degradation, thus they would only get warmer over time.

If you look at the previous color-meter posts you’ll see that the green pixels are brighter than red and blue, thus they will wear out more quickly.
Just tired it with Siri too, and I get same results! How weird. Something isn’t right here
You’re right. I told myself the same thing after posting. I’ll do another comparison tomorrow.
See following comparison
4 Pictures = 12PM <> iPhone X
2 Pictures = 12PM <> iPhone SE 2020 (LCD)
3 Pictures = 12PM alone
If one of you will give me again the tool to read out my display, then I will tell you also the panel number/code.
