Please post your comparison photo/video if you got new iPad screen is (not yellowish) same as iPad 2 or close by. Thank you!
 
Even I would like to know that :D

Yes, because many people claimed that they got perfect new iPad which has same screen as iPad 2 in terms of whiteness. I am excited to see because I didn't find any new iPad has same screen as iPad 2- it's always yellowish. :p
 
What? I'm confused... I have had 2 iPad 3's (broke the first one and replaced it) and both are MUCH whiter than my iPad 2. Are people having issues with the 3 being yellower than the 2?

Yes, all the iPad 3s I have seen are yellower than 2. Could you please post photo with2 & 3 side by side? Appreciate this!:D
 
My iPad 3 seems to have a nice white screen. I will have to compare mine next to my mothers iPad 2 next time I go visit my parents.

Please take some pics of comparing and post here if you don't mind, thanks!

Well the guy I sold my ipad 2 got a new ipad with the screen the same as an ipad 2.:apple:

I heard about this - still no luck to see the pics / reality :cool:
 
Black is iPad 2, White iPad 3.

When I first compared, I thought my screen was for sure "yellow-ish". But I've come to see that it's really not that bad. It is on the warm side, but the iPad 2 is also very cool. I did a few different test with bright and dark movies & photographs and the iPad 3 is definitely more accurate with flesh tones and colors. The ipad 2 however, is more accurate with bright whites. All in all, the ipad3 has a more accurate, better picture. But the Whites are definitely more accurate on the iPad 2. No doubt.

Great, eagerly waiting - thanks a lot!

Sorry I took so long to get back... I still haven't compared my 3 to my 2, but I think I might have been mistaken now that I'm looking at my 3 versus my iPhone 4. I can definitely see the yellow in it now... which kind of pisses me off cause I thought it was super great before!
