Q: Is anybody else getting a yellowish hue on their new iPad?

Hi guys, i need your help. I just got my new iPad today 4G+Wifi 64GB (white) and i am getting a distinct yellowish hue on my retina display. On my iPad 2 it is clearly much nicer and brighter in terms of the resolution. I was making the two comparisons by using safari and just opening up a blank white page with the brightness tuned to the max on both, i could tell the new iPad is yellowish and the iPad 2 is white and crisp. I mean is apple kidding me? Retina display with more pixels results in yellowish crappy resolution than my iPad 2? Im not sure if i should return this junk back to the apple store or if they do replace me will they give me back the same crappy display. I am stuck in a middle right now as my authorised reseller is currently out of stock and when i called apple support today they were telling me i would have to wait much longer if they have to ship it back to me. This is really ridiculous and i hope if anyone shares the same problem do drop me a reply.

 

Thanks.

    "Unfortunately, you are absolutely wrong. Demo iPad 3 and my iPad 3 side by side."

    Neither of these screens is correct. the one on the right is pink / purple. My iPad retina has that pinkish hue. Looking at display models at Best Buy 3 out of 4 displayed iPads have that pink hue. Looking around at the android offerings I see a cheap Dell tablet that has better color than the iPad retinas. Good neutral greys.

     

    This problem could be easily fixed if Apple allowed screen color calibration on the iPad. But without that option we're stuck with poor quality "top of the line" retina screens.

    I meant the one on the left is pink.

    I am getting different color screens on Air 1's and Air 2. See thread iPad Air 1 / iPad Air 2 screen color differences

    Am surprised a company like Apple has such poor control. Two years ago, I returned my iPhone 5 for same reason, and never every purchased iPhone ever! Am going in for galaxy note edge that is arriving at my doorstep by this weekend! See my post, link attached. Am so frustrated at apple!

    Regards
