Hi folks,
Been lurking for a while and finally pulled the trigger on a 8/256 MBA 13" last week, based on the positive reviews I've found here of this model. (Don't laugh but I've managed to keep my trusty 12" G4 PowerBook going for 8 years - so reliable that I suspect it would be one of only three things to survive armageddon along with Cockroaches and Keith Richards, but in truth too slow now even for basic web/WP duties.)
Very happy with everything so far except... I'm finding my screen has a blue-ish tint as well.
I've put it next to a 2011 MBP 13" from my work, my old 12" PB G4 and my 20" Apple aluminium monitor and my eyes aren't playing tricks - the MBA's screen definitely has a blue-ish hue that I don't seem to be able to get rid of by recalibrating myself or using the various different profiles I've found here.
The resolution of the screen is really excellent, but the whites just don't seem white and bright enough to me and the whole screen has a sort of cold feel that at best I'm not used to and at worst I don't like. Weirdly the blue problem seems to be worse on certain websites - the backgrounds of some sites on the MBA appear with a very distinct blue tinge to them.
I've checked and it seems I have an screen LP133WP1-TJA7 - is that an LG?
I can probably live with it, but if I thought sending it back would get me a properly bright white screen I have 14 days to decide.
Any thoughts/advice appreciated.
James
