iPad 2 Yellow Screen Tinting Likely to Go Away Like iPhone 4?

Just ordered :apple: iPad2 online. Now I see poo poo screen rumor. Hope it's resolved by the time mine ships.
 
Stopped by walmart at 5:15 and there was no line. Was in and out in two minutes.

I too have this yellow color. It's right in front of the speaker.

Fingers crossed it goes away after a few days or I'll need to warranty it.
 
If any other company had a similar issue they would get torn apart. But since it's apple, its not a big deal. Why dat be?:confused:

Yellow screens! The sky is falling! The end is near!

This thread is providing me with some great comic relief after all that has happened to us in Japan during the past 24 hours. :p
 
I am SO glad I did not get one, I would be so POed if I waited in line to get a blotchy, shoddy upgrade!:eek:

I thought Japanese Buildings could do this at the first sign of danger?

No yellow on my white

Just opened my White 512MB and no yellow anywhere! :cool::apple:
 
Well we have two iPads here and they both have this.

One is a black 64GB wi-fi model the other is white 64GB wi-fi model. So this will probably become a common problem for a few days.
 
I'm seeing backlight bleeding, not yellow splotches. 64GB WIFI Most of the photos I've seen online, which are complaining of yellowing, are backlight issues.

Yes my new iPad 2. Just back from the long lines. I'm a purist. Tech was always defined by memory not flash storage.

So if you were sat at home you'd say "Could you pass me the 512mb, pass me the 8gb," instead of iPad/iPhone or laptop.

Doesn't that get confusing? If you call it the 512mb how'd you differentiate between an iPhone 4 or an iPad. Do you call the iPhone 4 your '800Mhz' ?
 
If you open up the video app and play a video in a dark room you can really see this.

It is worse on the white model than the black for whatever reason.

I think he's more confused than anything else...

Anyway, no yellow tint issues here; just some backlight bleeding on the home button adjacent screen edge. Will take it back to Walmart once one from Apple ships:D lmfao, I love reading about all the crazy lines today...I got in line at 4:35...and there ended up being 12 of us and 20 iPads in stock. Ha ha ha:p

I would be pissed! Hope it all works out forebode who have it.
