I picked up a 15" M4 MacBook Air in Midnight for myself and my partner has a 15" M4 MacBook Air in Silver. I immediately noticed how much whiter my panel was compared to hers. I took some pics to show the major difference. Both MacBook Air's have True Tone and Nighshift off, and set to the exact same brightness.

The panel on the Silver one looks washed out whereas the panel on my Midnight looks super white/clear to me.

Has anyone noticed this on their device? Why such a MASSIVE difference? Has Apple's QC gone down hill or what's going on.

See pics.
