21.5" iMac 2012 Display Issue!

No. I (and also Apple, too, after some talking) tend to see the whole thing as a hardware problem ...

Because SMC reset and a repair I was also addressed - I then told right from the start I do not experiment, and a repair of the brand new iMac I do not want too!
I few hours later, again informed by telephone for delivery of the new iMac - which should be arriving next week, or at least sent!
TNT I'm also told I would be called the iMac next week at the earliest pick up Friday or let him drop off next week even where (drive on the way to work gets around this). Since I offered to call again next week, because NEM date, maybe I have! By then already NEN delivery of the new iMac

Well, that sounds like my conversation with Apple. Only difference is that he told me he had no idea at all how fast it would go with the replacement. I was also the first with a defective iMac of the latest generation and according t him there is neither instructions nor experience in this regard. He also asked me to inform him when the replacement arrives.
I just hope that the target date works out and that the Replacement doesn't have problems. I do not know how Apple would react if I wanted a second replacement...

Did not even call. Did the internet just to "returning" typed and the rest already happened automatically. Now I'm waiting for a call from TNT that you pick up the device. Guess I will then take time in mid-January to the Apple Store in Oberhausen. Perhaps one can then test a device before buying. Otherwise, I'll probably end of January again order a device on the Internet. It's silly if the display should be so different. In a local reseller of screen in my opinion was not quite perfect, but it's better than mine.

I have quite an expensive TV, yes LG (IPS Panel) and it has some bleeding in the corners, there will probably always a bit of bleeding on LCD's, except Full leds maybe.
LOL
Should have bought a plasma
Should have bought a plasma
Why?
1. It's a good TV
2. Plasma is an electricity sucker and I am in a place we don't have much.
3. It's just minor, can barely see it.
4. LCD's are almost as good Plasma nowadays.
5. You replied to an old(er) post

my first iMac 27 had a yellow Display, grey and yellow bars in this forum are different on the top-side of the display (1/3 white / 2/3 yellow)!
The second iMac is now here and had no yellow issue because the complete Display shows the same color temperature of grey and white bars!
i hope you can read my bad english

Nothing wrong with your English, the going language is English, if you make a mistake and someone Jokes about it just report the User, it is not OK on this forum to complain about grammar or spelling errors.
You are Ok and doing fine.

I think it depends which model you have.
I have the base 21.5". I got my original and 2 advanced replacements all within 2 weeks. And that was over the Xmas period!!
All done over the phone with AppleCare.
Saved going into those nasty apple stores. You come out of there with radiation burns, with the all the bright lighting!

OK, all done.
I consider mine OK now-either there is no tinge anymore or it's almost unnoticeable. I've been doing that test with the two grey bars and any perceived difference between the two could be imagination or due to the viewing angle.
Also, no backlight bleed, as far as I can tell and no other issues.
I'm content.
