iPhone Xs Max Color Temperature

I recently got the new iPhone Xs Max and immediately upon the unboxing, I noticed the screen color temperature is WAY more "warm" than that of the iPhone 8 Plus I had before it. I have completely disabled True Tone and Night Shift, and still, the screen is just objectively more orangish than my iPhone 8 Plus and iPad Pro. On an interesting note, if I look at the screen even SLIGHTLY off angle, the color temperature appears much cooler and natural. And yes--I am well aware this is characteristic of OLED displays. And I have also heard some people claim it is due to the glue still drying under the display, and that I should give it a few more days. I can't speak for that, but what I can say is that side by side, the iPhone Xs Max has a more orangish looking display than any other Apple device I've ever owned. Is anyone else experiencing this?

iPhone Xs Max, iOS 12, null

hello 🙂 I ve recently got my Xs Max 256GB just like you and ive been experiencing problems like yours. I am going to the apple store for exchange on sept.26 let me know how your troubles have been solved.

I have noticed it since today as I still have my iPhone X as my main phone for everyday use, and I have not fully switched to XS max due to my case coming in at October. :/ shame I spent $2000 for OLED display looking orange hopefully replacement will have same color saturation as my iPhone X.
