iPad Pro screen is yellow

hi acribb nicotine stain sound a good way to describe it ..its uneven .ive had brown box replacements but they all have the same problem .the ones in the apple stores are all perfect.they wont cure over time that's noncence..I love the device and have said many times for artists this is the way to go,ive had lots of hastle ,had to make several phone calls and I still haven't got a good screen ..in a dark room it does look like a nicotine stain like you say ..if I end up getting a good one I will post back

Mine tends to look uniformly more yellow (like an older incandescent bulb) when I dim it, but more uniformly blue (like a fluorescent bulb) from about 1/2 to maximum brightness.

I was able to buy this for $725 + tax with coupons. If the replacement still has this imperfection I will have to think long and hard on whether to replace with a 9.7" iPP. I sure hope I don't have to make that decision.

That is exactly how mine is!

At lower than 50% brightness, the display is pretty much an even all over dim yellow.

At 80% to full screen brightness, it is a pretty even blue hue.

Unfortunately, I don't use my display at the higher brightnesses because battery life diminishes greatly with higher brightness screen and becuse at the higher screen brightness settings, it is just too dang bright for my eyes causing me headaches.

I use all of my iPads at a lowered screen brightness for battery consevation and at lower brightness settings, even my iPad 2 and 3 models take on a slight yellowish hue.

Has anyone had a result when waiting a couple of weeks for the glue to dry? I just purchased mine from Boston, it is a 128 gb wifi. The screen is yellow compared to my iphone 6 plus. You can check the photo. What can we do about this. It seems the time is passing by but there is no change on the screens of Ipad pro 128 gb.

Mine is mostly white and has an extremely slight yellowish hue towards the top of the screen when in portrait position. Probably the top 2". No, it doesn't go away. I actually complained and got a replacement from Staples, but my replacement was actually worse than the original- it had spotlighting on the edges under a black screen and the screen in general was about the same overall yellow tint as the example you are showing. I ended up just keeping the original since its edge lighting was perfecly even. I love having this large screen. I'm spoiled now......

I Understand. Maybe its better to keep my ipad pro and don't try to change, as the yellow screen has uniformity and I don't have any spotlighting under black screens. Is there any kind of software or screen protector which will make the screen look more bluish?

The color on my iPad Pro 9.7" is the same as my iPad Air 2.

Have you tried this?

Go into Settings > Display & Brightness:

Turn Off: True Tone

Turn Off: Night Shift

Both change the color temperature of the display. I turned off True Tone because I prefer the consistently cooler color temperature of the screen with True Tone set to Off.

The purpose of True Tone is to match the color of the screen to the reflected light coming from the ambiant lighting. Useful if you use the iPad Pro for drawing or viewing artwork.

I don't use Night Shift, but it is supposed to aid insomnia by also changing the color temperature of the screen to a warmer tone at night. How much warmer or cooler is adjustable using the slider under Night Shift in settings.

Thanks for your reply but the ipad pro we are talking about is the 12.9" version. We don't have True Tone display and of course Night Shift mode is turned off. By the way I realized that the warmer screen color on my ipad pro 12.9" performs better on movies compared to bluish screens. This is completely subjective of course.

One gets used to it. Blue light is bad for your sleep anyway, so I like the fact that there is less of it when I dim my iPad and use it prior to bedtime.

If its not the Night Shift mode, its a hardware issue.

Any updates on this issue folks?

Just got a 32gb ipad pro, dated from January and it has the annoying uneven tint. I wish it was uniformly yellow.

Anyone managed to grab a newer one and see if the issue is sorted out?

For those who had the gradient, did it fade away with time?

I also have a yellow tint on the top third of the screen. It really bothers me, especially when reading book or browsing the web. The Apple Store won't let me have a replacement, because it's not a "defect". Returning it also isn't an option, because I already have it a few weeks. What can I do?

Just got my new iPad Pro 9.7" 257/WiFi/Cellular. Was super stoked about it but once I started setting it up tonight, I noticed the yellow tint vs my iPad Air 2. True Tone and Night Shift are both off. As a graphic artist/illustrator and photographer, color is vital. For nearly $2000 with case, Apple Pencil, and taxes, this isn't acceptable.

Quality control has shifted down significantly since more devices were being manufactured and assembled overseas. Its frustrating that our excitement is squashed and we now have to take time to play a guessing game and hope that any of the exchanged ones have been resolved. My bet is that they just don't care at this point as the general public won't notice or care. Sad.
