Who cares? It's an iPad. Trade it until you get a screen you can live with, otherwise deal with it. You can't calibrate these things anyway so why even bother trying to "eliminate tint issues". It's never going to be an accurate color reproducer due to lack of software, so why bother.

You obviously care enough to post in the thread, numpty

Good success on my air after baking the screen for 25 hours or so.

With or without those little marshmallows?
(Love the way they turn a golden brown! Delicious. Unless, of course, you are viewing your results on an iPad Air screen... if so then the marshmallows will appear a golden yellow.)

I can't keep trading it in as i'm not buying from Apple direct (PC World), and my retailer is more fussy. also my jailbroken ipad with a tweak sorted most of screen probs, so maybe its a bit of both.
 
Well - I take back what I said. I got to looking and mine is definitely more yellow on the left than on the right. It isn't a huge noticeable difference, but its there. I'm just about done with iPads at this point - there is far too much variation in screen. rMini is washed out and the Air has uniformity issues!
