Deep yellow tint iPhone 6s

Hello! I purchased my iPhone 6s today at a verizon retail store. When I set up the phone I noticed tthat the screen seemed duller than usual. After setup I compared it to my iPhone 6 and noticed that the screen is neither as bright or as vivid as the 6 I upgraded from. I've read, mad have had phones that differ I'm tearms of color temperature. However this particular phone isnt half as bright as my 6. Which leads me to believe that this is some kind of defect. Has anyone else had this issue thus far? Should I wait to see if the issue corrects itself, or make a visit to the Apple Store and see if they will exchange it?

New to apple community. Faced same problem. New I phone 6s, worked fine for few days then screen suddenly developed yellow tint (full not partial) : after my kid played games on it. Following worked for me and my display is back to original white again:

1. Go to settings

2. Go to Display & Brightness

3.Go to Night shift

4. Turn it off / Disable it (was on/ enabled in my case)

Not a tech expert but hope this helps you and others in this forum.

As mentioned elsewhere...

Not a bug, a FEATURE.

Called Night Shift. Purportedly designed to help you sleep better in case you can't let go of the iGadget even when in bed at night. Bluish-tinted light is supposed to excite your brain cells into thinking it's daytime and scare your slumber away. This feature comes courtesy of the iOS 9.3 update and is only available on the newer 64-bit iGadgets.

Drag your finger up to expose box with airplane mode, wifi, alarm, etc.. There's a sun symbol. Click it and it will say "night shift mode off" and the yellow screen will be back to normal. Turn it on and it will become dull yellow again.

When the original poster, to whom you addressed this reply, asked their question, NightShift didn't exist. So, it's unlikely to have been the cause of their issue.

This may be stupid but have you got Nightshift on? Go into your settings - display and brightness - and click on nightshift to check us it's on, you can also change the colour tone of your screen accordingly.

Fixed mine! Went to settings-display and turned off night shift- at the bottom you can change the warmth of your screen :)
