iPhone 12 Pro Max still has green tint screen after updating to iOS 14.3

I‘ve been told by that Apple has been aware of the issue and will roll out a fix for it.

However, I updated my iPhone 12 Pro Max right after iOS 14.3 was released. But the green tint issue still exists; pixels seem to glow green instead of going to completely dark in low-light environment. Is this a hardware issue that Apple cannot fix? Or Apple prefers to recall all the devices a year later.

Green tint appears on my device with below settings:

Cold winter: lower than 0 degree celsius when I'm jogging outside my house.
Dark mode.
Adaptive display.
Low brightness: around zero brightness.

Look forward to Apple's reply on this.

I’m having the same issue. I found a easy way to get the green tint to display. I go into a nearly pitch black room to see it easier. Then go into the software update menu in settings in dark mode. Then I move the brightness slider somewhere between 40-80%. Then the glow clearly shows up. Sometimes it disappears for a split second and then returns. Never happens on very low brightness or 90%- above.

No. They might replace your current device, but no guarantee for a perfect new one.

@King-555 is that an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider?

Feb 11, 2021 9:58 AM in response to King-555

we are not alone after all....2000$ green brick is what we bought....i still believe in apple but it's frustrating to see green screen in the night... i am worried it might be effecting our eyes.

Had the same experience in December.

When i asked the local iCare centre they said it is resolved with software update.

Even they agreed the issue but they can't do anything.
