Apple Watch Sport viewing angle changes colour

[colinw123]

Hi all, i just got a 38mm apple sport watch yesteday and the first thing i noticed was that the display colour can change when changing the viewing angle very easily.

I notice it on anything white like the hands of the clock face or a message etc.

So off angle in any direction it changes to a blueish white, and looking at it straight on it's kind of reddish white.

Is this normal for the apple watch due to it having an oled display ?

Thanks.

Both the Sport and SS models are supposed to have medium color shift at a 30 degree viewing angle according to http://www.displaymate.com/Apple_Watch_ShootOut_2.htm#Viewing_Angle

I've never really noticed it, but perhaps you're more sensitive to this than most.

The oleophobic coating also plays a roll in this.

I doubt it's anything you should worry about.

Ok thanks guys for the feedback, i don't think i'm more sensitive to it, it's just very obvious when i move the watch that's all.

Cheers anyway.
