White iPhone 4: "Warm" Yellow LCD Tint - Any owners out there with "blue" tint?
Hey,
I just picked up a white GSM iPhone 4 the other day and, upon comparing it to my black GSM iPhone 4 (purchased in June), I noticed that the white iPhone 4's LCD is noticably (and I would say drastically) yellower or "warmer" than that of the black iPhone. I would say the black iPhone's LCD is noticably whiter, bluer, brighter or "cooler" than that of the white iPhone. I definitely prefer the cooler blue LCD to the warmer yellow; the color seems to pop more and whites actually look white, whereas the yellow looks dim and washed out.
Just curious if any other white iPhone owners received units with the blue tint or if they are all yellow. All the pictures in online hands-on reviews of the white unit seemed to have the yellow tint. I've also heard (on iLounge as well as other speculation) that the yellow tint was/is present on the black CMDA iPhones as well and that the yellow is simply a new panel manufacturer that Apple is now sourcing from and that there's nothing that can be done about it - all new phone will have the yellow tint. Hopefully that's not the case.
So, if anyone out there has the cooler LCD on a white unit, please let me know, as if they exist I would love to visit the Apple store to swap mine out for one. The tint is hard to notice unless you have two units side by side, one yellow, one blue. Even a 3GS side by side with a white 4 shows the disparity.
Thanks.
