So just today I noticed an issue with my dual setup. One of the displays (one on the left) seems to have a very slight pinkish hue to it. The one to the right has a relatively whiter / greener hue (when compared to the left display).
Has anyone else noticed this?
Picked up my displays from the Apple Store on Thursday and just got them hooked up on two monitor mounts in my office. Haven't had a chance to really use them so can't comment on how responsive it is yet.
One thing I don't like is that I have to use both sides of the MacBook to connect the displays -- would have so much cleaner to just have everything connected on 1 side.
I'm running a BTO MBP with 2.6 GHz / 460 Graphics / 512GB SSD.
Yup, though it is a little hard to see from the photo.
Would a tint like this be considered normal? Have you tried calibration? It's so annoying to see white windows side by side and not have them match (at least it is when working on designs)

Mine is pretty even.. don't have the same issues you seem to be having. Maybe a calibration will help as others have said.
However, when I turned up the brightness my right monitor now has 1/3rd of the display that will not adjust any longer.
I think they're going to have to replace it, unfortunately (unless anyone here has any ideas. Low res vid just so you can see the changes in the screen when I move the brightness slide back and forth. The right side remains constant (even though in the video it looks like it brightens--just the exposure on the camera causing this).
After your calibration, were you able to get rid of all of the greens?
Yikes -- that's pretty bad about the brightness not responding correctly. It looks like a hardware issue IMO. How do you plan to get it replaced? Just return / repurchase?
And thanks for taking the shot with the whites -- it's a little hard to make out since the iPhone over exposed the screens, though -- any chance you can retake it but tone the exposure down (just tap to focus, then swipe down)?

[doublepost=1483506853][/doublepost]I just took a moment to adjust the exposure / contrast on my original photo showing the pink tint. When i do this, I can see that theres a very obvious delineation in the screens where the two display channels are "glued" together -- the first display seems to have a yellow / pink tint, and the second a green / gray.
Yikes! Are you returning / replacing both these then?Yikes -- that's pretty bad about the brightness not responding correctly. It looks like a hardware issue IMO. How do you plan to get it replaced? Just return / repurchase?

Lots of great/important posts above!
Just did this post it scribble-drawing, with pole mount option (1) or shelf option (2):
Haha... rather than quick post-it notes, I really should find a way of doing this digitally in future – Apple Pencil usage (don't own a suitable iPad yet), or otherwise! 😳
Monitors do have a very slight wobble (even when the desk is at a sitting height) but its not very noticeable. I think this is due more to the arms than anything. I'll look at what the desk model is, but I got it from my workplace.
