Apple has offered to replace mine, without me having to use my apple care +
The display on my 13 Pro Max is very uniform in light and dark mode. The blacks and grays are very uniform. I guess I got lucky based on what I see from some of the other posters. I am still adjusting to the situation that sometimes I see a brief bit of red on the bottom of text. Also, I am finding that I don't really like the off-axis color shift. I need to go look at the M1 12.9" iPad Pro with its min-LED display.
Seems like we both have the same panel, I don’t believe there is any 13 pro max out there without red tint.
When I hear people describe that there display has red tinting to it, I see their displays have a general red cast to them, maybe only in a portion of the display. The display on my 13 Pro Max does not exhibit that behavior. It looks more like localized shift on some of the pixels showing red on the lower portion of text. It is very brief, quick and it disappears. And this only seems to happen when I have dark mode on. So this is also red tinting?
Mine is the opposite, dark mode looks fantastic, it’s light mode where I’m seeing the same issues as you, guess you could call it red tint, typical OLED behavior, it’s a flawed technology, prefer my mini led iPad Pro display over this rubbish.
Mine is a keeper. Sounds like what I am seeing is more or less an artifact inherit in OLED tech. Also, my 13 Pro Max has zero physical defects on it. I really like the silver color with its contrast to the white frosted glass.
Might keep mine as well, not sure if I want to end up with a even worse panel.
Yes I did, went to the apple store and they agreed that’s not right. They exchanged it with a new one.
I also have True Tone, night shift and auto brightness turned off on my phone. Not really noticing too much warm hue, it is a fairly blue hue. At some point we need to stop nitpicking our phones and start enjoying them. I even like the bit of heft the 13 Pro Max has, it feels very solid and well built.
Yep, this phone is 99% perfect, glad they went a bit thicker this year, battery life is amazing, hopefully we’ll see a iPhone with a 5000 mAh battery soon.
I suspect that Apple did not include AOD because it ate too much battery and they wanted to give the best battery life possible.
Do they have the replacement in stock? Or I should wait for the new one? Is the new one perfect?
Or they’re saving it for a future feature.
Please make sure the Apple Care+ isn’t married to the Serial Number of the original one you are exchanging.
