Firstly what's supposed to be white on the screen is kind of dark and pinkish.

Also the Bluetooth doesn't always turn on when I turn it on.

And the lte is super slow. Was fast on my 5s and even the 4g on my 4s was way faster than this.

What's the deal ?

There is absolutely no way the data is slower, unless there is some sort of setup error on the carrier's side.

Let me put it another way, it's like saying you had a 70's era 4 cyl, which were as slow as molasses, and purchased a 2016 Tesla but the 70s car is faster. In both scenarios, it's simply not possible because the engine HP (i.e LTE chipsets) are literally xx times more powerful.
 
I've read that Apple has calibrated the screens to be slightly warmer than they were in the past, so that may be why the screen doesn't look as white to you?

As for the bluetooth issues and LTE speeds, have you tried to reset network settings? Did you restore from a backup?

Ok but it is slower. I was using my 4s earlier today with more speed. And my 5s a couple months ago.

Ugh. Car analogies. o_O

Did not restore from backup

Maybe you got a bootleg one.

Lol maybe. It did say it shipped from china.
