iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14
I bought my iPhone from the T-Mobile retailer, mine was manufactured during the 2nd week of December and I received it and saw that the contrast and the screen had a overall yellow tint. Instantly got annoyed about it, but kept thinking about it and decided to order one from Apple directly. I received it today and it seems like the new one is a lot better, the contrast and the grays and blacks look a lot darker. However, the white is still a bit warm, but is a very minor problem now. I think Apple might be fixing it slowly through the manufacturing process. I would recommend to exchange or return and purchase it again to get a different batch and try your luck
True tone will make it yellow that’s the point.If the display color wasn’t an issue for you great
Do you love the screen flickering on dark scenes too? Unless you’re not affected
I finally found a very good and accurate video with the exact yellow tint issue I have and most of you. The yellow paper tint garbage. https://youtu.be/87OwU-2FOv4
Just wait for the update coming from Apple, which Apple has said is coming. Adding to the "me too" chorus on a user to user only forum won't get you anything.
Did you return it? If you got the new one is it the same? Did you compared to other models in a store?
i didn't return it because all iPhones 12 pro max tested ar worse or the same with mine,they primised an software update fix.
Confirming that iOS 14.3 will not fix this issue. I just installed iOS 14.3 RC2. Compared to my iPhone X and all my other devices screen, the iPhone 12 Pro Max white balance is warmer or yellowish.
I completely agree.
I hope that no one forgets, that this is just a discussion. You can directly provide feedback to Apple also.
I don't really understand, 4 is the limit of express replacements, which comes with AppleCare+?
Or the limit of replacements within the 14 days return policy?
I have the same problem. Yellow (and quite dark) screen on iPhone 12 Pro Max 256GB Gold. I'll send it back in the morning. I never thought...
Disappointed and a little p***** off.
Any news when this software update coming?
We just got one so not any time soon. An update will not fix this, it’s poor displays/screen coatings.
If you talk about yellow tint , No it’s not a poor quality display . It’s a well calibrated display. When you get a tv professional calibrated you’ll notice the dull whites. It’s better for your eye
Good for you being a photographer. And I didn't say Apple redefined anything. I said they're likely easier on our eyes. So let me clarify that statement. It IS easier on my eyes.
This worked for me. Turning off True Tone did the trick. Thanks.
