iPhone 7 Plus display dingier than iPhone 6 Plus display

I apologize in advance for not reading the entire thread, but wanted to make sure you were aware of the Accessibility controls that provide extremely finite settings for your color display on the iPhone 7. The display on the iPhone 7 is a major advancement over previous displays, and you can make very dramatic changes to that display by going to Settings>General>Accessibility>Display Accomodations. You have several options for massaging the display:

1. At the bottom, you have a Reduce White Point slider

2. Under Color Filters, when you have turned them on, you have several pre-set filters you can select from

3. If you then select Color Tint, you can use the Intensity and Tint sliders to adjust what you see in very finite minute increments

So, just thought I would add that in case it hasn't already been hashed to death....and sorry if it is just a redundant piece of info 🙂

Cheers,

Sorry for what happened to you. Thank you for your time and help.

I think I'll keep my stupid iPhone 7 after your feedback.

Thank you.

I found this article to be interesting:

And remember, "brighter" is not always better. Harsh whites are extremely hard on the eyes, so softening the effect may appear to be dingier, but it simply may be that the harshness has been toned down. The color contrast is far superior, and again, I found that the combination of the Accessibility features could render my display brighter appearing than my husband's 6 Plus.

And just to make sure, your device isn't in Night Shift mode, correct? 😀

Best of luck,

Judging by this photo only, here are my conclusions:

1. the one in the middle seems to have a pretty decent and even display

2. the one on the left is calibrated on the cooler side, with a slight magenta cast on the whole left side (especially top left corner)

3. the one on the right (your replacement device) is calibrated on the warmer side, with a slight yellow cast on the whole right side

I mention that I'd might also go wrong with the above due to the camera on you iPad Air that playing tricks with white balance on the edges.

I think the display evenness is also a must.

Thanks Doug for your feedback and constant updates.

I am facing the same problem here in France, as is one of my friends (we got three of them at the same time last Friday, one is pretty good, on the warm side but bright and quite acceptable, mine is warmer and dimmer and definitely not right and the third one is pretty much catastrophic as the display changes drastically with different viewing angles and is warm and dim).

I was thinking about the glue thing and the variation seen between our three units could (just a theory) be caused by a glue that is, for whatever reason, blocking light (dim and dull) and tinting everything because it is too thick or not applied correctly and the chemical structure is not right (dried too slow or too fast ?). I don't have any hope for this to fix itself, but I'm worried about an exchange because my phone is otherwise perfect and I know it could lead to a painful process of countless exchanges for nothing. I'm very curious what apple has to say about that, it's definitely a huge problem.

Thanks Doug for your constant updates ! I will wait until they give final result of these problem. I also have same problem and it's really annoying!! Thanks !
