iPhone 12 mini iPhone 12 Mini display not sharp/colourful compared to iPhone 7?

[SSD-GUY]

Hi all

I have recently just setup my iPhone 12 Mini and have found that it's display is not as sharp/vibrant as my old iPhone 7.

Looking at a picture (taken on the iPhone 7) via the photos app on both phones, and I can see that the colours just pop out more on the iPhone 7.

Ture tone is off (on or off doesn't make a difference), whilst I've also turned off auto brightness on both.

Is this normal or hardware?

Thanks

Did you put a screen protector ?

Yellow Screen/Tint? Display seem "Warm"? Check here first!

Dear all, I have the same issue with the yellow tint of the white. I sent back my 12 pro max 16 november. I just received the new one yesterday. New one is identical, maybe a little better for the viewing angle. colours are washed, white a little yellow, white become blue at 45° in all side...

Also the 7 is LCD vs OLED on the 12s

I also went from a 7 to a mini and had the opposite experience.

Thanks. So your 12 mini doesn’t have a yellow hue to it compared to your 7? Or does your 7 appear to be more yellow when comparing like the same picture side by side?

I put a cheaper screen potector and my display on 12 was grainy, had less colour and brightness than my 11...
I was dissapointed. Changing screen protector solve this 😀 (Maybe it helps for someone)
