People need to stop generalizing about which serial #s have what screen, because it's not true. iPhone screens are made by Samsung, LG and Sharp (not sure about any others).
I bought two C39 32gb units 2 weeks ago. One in white, one in black. Note that _both_ are C39.
The black unit does not have the led spotlights at the top of the screen, it does have a bluish cold tint to it. The white unit most certainly does have the spotlights, and has a "normal" neutral hue. Compared to an ice-cold blue, I suppose one could whine that it has some yellow, but 6000-6500K which is good for video does have some yellow in it and is a desirable trait. The color accuracy is better than the blue screen because colours aren't all blue-pushed.
Do I find the LED spotlights distracting and wish they weren't there? Yes.. it throws me off a bit.. but they aren't noticable on dark backgrounds or the home screen because the top has a shaded bar. It's only noticable on white backgrounds or light grey bars.. then you see the spotlight leakage.
The reason I haven't exchanged it, is because I'm afraid of getting something _worse_. The phone works well, and the screen has very even backlighting, I haven't noticed scan lines, the colour balance is VERY good, and it has better contrast/legibility on small letters than the bluish screen does on the black one.
The only fault of the screen are the LED spotlights, which are the same as the posted photo.
I'm trying really hard to get used to it, because A) it has a 1 year warranty, B) everything ELSE about the screen is AWESOME, and last but not least, C) let's be realistic here guys.. the light has to come from somewhere because this isn't an OLED.. let's look at our previous generation phones (whether iPhone 3 and under or from other manufacturers like BlackBerry, etc.).. ask yourself.. "do I take my old screen, that had no light leakage, but grainy crappy text, low contrast and odd color balance? or do I take a perfect screen but with LED spotlights on 1 side only that is only visible when it's white or light-grey backgrounds?"
My gf said we could swap units if I wanted (she wants my white unit because of the case colour).. I didn't do this because I DON'T want the blue screen where all the colours are blue-pushed.
Same situation with the HP Touchpads that we have.. one screen was made by LG, one screen was made by Samsung. The differences between the two is that 1 panel has uneven backlighting in spots, and the other has some light bleed at the edges in spots.. the other differences is that 1 panel (mine of course) has a more neutral white and more accurately balanced colour.. the cost is slightly less contrast.. the other screen has slightly more contrast and slightly more colour saturation.. BUT it's got a green-blue push.. I can't stand it.
Pick your poison. For me, what's most important is colour balance first.
