Do you think it's a hardware issue for the green shift if it only occurs between like 10-20% brightness? That's when it triggers on my 12 Pro Max. I also have the raised blacks issue at pretty much most brightness settings that aren't 100% (only at 100% will black pixels actually turn off).
Got a tip for us?

It's also possible that some people just haven't noticed the issue, yet.
How much HDR content with total-black scenes are people watching?
The flicker doesn't happen when my brightness is up past a certain %.
The flicker doesn't happen when my brightness is turned down past a certain %.
When at the "correct" brightness, it doesn't always flicker. Like, the pixels might be on for a few seconds, and then switch off. A user may not have noticed the "pure black" pixels were still on for a moment.
I know what to look for, so I can always see it. Other people may not know what to look for, and don't even notice it.
MiNi ??? You ARE KIDDING ?? I just return it back .. (Touch Gate) .. DONT take my word .. 1500+ complaints.. Read Apple forums your self !!!

Did someone say it was a blanket issue that affects everyone? I didn’t. And...to say it's not an issue. It was an issue I had.
Does everyone lack reading comprehension? No. It's not a blanket issue that affects everyone. Is it your issue? Yes.

Noice! I have been on a 4 year upgrade wait, now I live in terror in getting a defected $800 iphone. People in the US will just enjoy returning it. People who have no Apple store near them will pay the same and will suffer for it.
Apple products releases are always flawed with problems here and there, their get away is its not a design flaw its a quality flaw. So some people get a perfect devices, others suffer. Some of the flaws is the current screen issues, dead gpus on some laptops, some laptop screens had bad coating,...they do a lot of recalls.
No there was always and issue especially with screen splotches. Sometimes I think its bad quality control, other times when I hear they sell like 20M devices per quarter I forgive them...then I don't forgive them because they made me pay $800, took my money, and gave me a flawed product. If you can't build that many phones, build less, don't punish the customer for it.

There were way too many discussions elsewhere about T-Mobile's SIM situation, but I don't think it ever came down to speeds, but rather connectivity. Some of the old SIMs can't support 5G standalone, so it could affect connectivity (in places where T-Mobile only has 5G rolled out, you wouldn't be able to connect). 5G NSA (non-standalone) would be supported where LTE would "assist" with the connection.
It's actually two issues combined. The first is that, in certain scenarios, areas of the screen that should be turned off to display black are kept on and show a very faint gray, and the second is that many screens have poor grayscale color balance which can tint grays slightly green, and cameras can amplify how visible that problem is, but it's still a problem and noticeable to some with their naked eyes. So that photo is actually picking up those two issues combined.
Just saw the video mentioned, ouch...that is a mess.

My iPhone that I got from iPhone upgrade program had a sim for t mobile in it. I’m showing 5G in the corner of my phone... how can I be sure I’m getting the best connectivity
For those of you wondering the new 14.2 does not change anything in regards to the yellow tint issue. If you are on the older build of 14.2 you can update via iTunes/Finder by connecting your iPhone to your computer. I went through the trouble and it does not fix the yellow tint issue.
I actually had to use the new sim on my 12 Pro Max instead of my old sim. Rep stated it was because of 5G.
Dealing with T-Mobile for a few different kinds of accounts, if your old SIM was more than a generation behind, that might have been the main reason. The SIMs with R15 printed on them are the current ones, while the TM9263 ones also should work. Anything older (TM___) might need to be replaced.
Just under 1Gbps in Aus? thats insane!! Where are you located?? I am only getting a max of 450mbps (Not complaining though as thats 4x faster than the fastest home NBN speeds lol)
I have been seeing weird flickering issues at times when the phone wakes up from sleep.. this also won’t let me type anything more than a char. it remains until reboot..
Had hit it twice in last 4 days...
