Hi Guys! Hope you're well-
I love the larger screen real estate - and hope everyone is enjoying their new Xs- the only things that disappointed me for now - in 4-5 trips to the Apple Store were that:
a) though the screen of the X is bright, and I'm sure it gives off more light overall since it's larger- but per sq inch / cm - it just doesn't get as bright as my 7 -to my eyes-
b) the White tone on the X is still a bit blue- I do like the more pure white my 7 produces on white web pages - etc. On the Xs - I did turn off True tone, have max brightness, play with color tint as suggested on another thread, turn off auto brightness. I also tried it on about 7 different display models in the store. My thought is - wait for one more iteration - at that point - I believe Apple will have moved the Oled to near parity in whites and brightness per sq cm to my 7
 
Sounds like you’re being way to picky. I’m not trying to be a jerk either lol but I use to be like this. And I couldn’t enjoy anything.
 
Maybe so everyone’s eyes are different 🙂

I use to compare my phone with my friends phones, the phones in the store, my co workers too lol. I just kept looking for the perfect screen and I realized I wasn’t even enjoying the devices for what they are. Hated that period in my life lol

I do have faith that
Maybe you’d be happier with a S8 or note8. Their displays are different. Not better, different...

Well I love my iCloud Photo Library, Apple Music etc and MacOS im staunchly Apple 😉

Lol these threads are hilarious. 4-5 trips to the Apple store? Do better bro. It’s rated as the same nit brightness as the lcd models. But somehow to ur eyes it’s not a bright.

Thats fine bro 😉 but I do think the white is whiter on the 7
