I don’t play with filters, it’s not a proper fix. Can make colors look worse, I’ll make sure I check my leather case today before leaving the store, that might have red tint as well lol.
Only recurring issue I’ve noticed with the leather cases in the past is the volume buttons being crooked. Other than that they’re usually fine, although the leather itself has sadly decreased in quality starting last year.

Haven’t had the volume buttons issue, agree with the leather being trash last year, hopefully they patina well this year, or my golden brown leather case will be going back.
 
Honestly i think it's the same old story for a long time… i joined the panel lottery since I bought an iphone x having bad experience. This year i decided to upgrade to 13PM and although i was happy at the beginning i started to notice a bad uniformity of the display with 1/3 of the panel which has a pink tint compared to the other 2/3 which is very annoying... in this thread some time ago i noticed a post where reference was made to the serial numbers of the display but this thing was only talked about on the iphone 12 series due to the too yellow screens.
Last year we had two samsung and lg suppliers, who supplied apple with these serial numbers and from what I was able to learn:

G9N (good quality samsung panel)

GVC (good quality lg panel)

G9P (low quality samsung panel)

GH (poor quality lg panel)

the strange thing I noticed though is that the iphone x, xs, 11 pro, and even 13 series are also subject to this display classification.
From what i could see the few G9N displays that i had in my hands were much more beautiful than others that had yellow tints, pink tints, bad uniformity, etc... strangely in fact my iphone 13PM has the display that starts with G9P but it is much better than the crap I've seen in those years.
I think apple is aware of this but keeps buying panels A and B to maximize its profit, because in the end most users don't notice it.

To check the serial number of the panel just do a sysdiagnose: press simultaneously vol +, vol-, power and release immediately, the iphone should vibrate. Then go to the analysis data and search for sysdiagnose. Export to file and unzip the archive, open pages and look for the iodevicetree file in the ioreg folder, once opened find this word: raw-panel-serial-number.
 
What brightness typically and can't say 100% ;)
Nope, 35% indoors, on WiFi, most likely get a couple of hours less, with normal use when not in lockdown, I’d be switching between WiFi & cellular, also higher brightness outdoors.

Welcome to the club, red tint here also, mine is also dimmer than previous models.

This phone is faultless, flawless, apart from these crappy Samsung garbage panels.
 
@Limeybastid & @TheYayAreaLiving remember you guys were laughing at me, thinking I was tripping, well look who’s right. 😂 it’s a real bug. How does this slip through apple software team 🤦‍♂️😡

It was concluded that was all a myth about good, bad and indifferent panels models.

What’s a battery bug ? Where the battery value doesn’t go down at all ? What am I looking for in that picture? All
I see in that photo is Shane Warne. 😂🤣
 
I tried that but no, was already off. But I resolved, it was simply the auto brightness. It's fine now thanks

The right side of the screen is ever so slightly darker than the left side, but I'm keeping it
I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s experiencing this. its Kinda distracting but only on a white background, for now I’ll be keeping it. Not going to return it then wait 2 months for a replacement.

WARNNNIEEEEE!!! 😂 here you go! 🤦‍♂️😔

 
Do you think that’s because your OLED panel is dim? 🤣🤣🤣
I’m more angry now after comparing mine at apple. 🤦‍♂️😔

Put mine next to another pro max, mine was brighter, but it was way more yellow and my greys looked like arse, they don’t look right at all 😔😔😔 even the apple store worker agreed. 🤬🤬🤬

YES, auto brightness off on both, true crap off, night crap off, both on max brightness.

This phone is definitely getting exchanged, but with these restrictions and no stock who knows when. 🤦‍♂️😂

Ask yourself. The shelf life of this iPhone for you and I is less than 12 months. What trades off are you willing to accept? Watch me get a good frame with no dings but a dim or unevenly lit panel in return 🤣
