External monitor has pink tint.

For anyone experiencing a pink tint when using a 49" Samsung RG949CCAA (or other external monitor) connected to a 2018 MacBook Pro 13" (or other MBP) using a usb-c to HDMI connector. Try changing the HDMI Mode from 2.0 (default) to 1.4. To do this go into the your monitor's settings using the button on the monitor. Menu > System > HDMI Mode > (change to 1.4 from 2.0). This resolved my issue. Hope this helps someone.

Using Samsung S27A80 external monitor(s) with 2019 MacBook Pro I have two Samsung S27A80*U monitors. I have attached them to my 2019 16" MacBook Pro using USB-C 3.1 cables. When I have two monitors attached, the MacBook frequently freezes, flashes vertical lines on the main monitor, then crashes back to the login screen. If I detach one monitor, then it stops crashing, but frequently freezes. It becomes pretty much unusable. Once I have all external monitors detached, the computer behaves normally. Has anyone else had experience with this issue? Is there something I'm doing wrong? Should I upgrade the cables (these are the USB-C cables that came with the monitors)? Am I SOL with these particular monitors? They're listed as Mac compatible. Thanks.

There is no setting like in windows to change the brightness balance.
