I'm one of the lucky ones who managed to get a new iPhone SE 64gb sim-free with both a yellow tinted display at the top and sides, and a power button that rattles... yay! :(

How'd you guys do? Please add which model you guys ended up with also. Thanks

Where's the "No" option in the poll?

If I remember correctly back to 2012/13, when the iPhone 5/ 5S was in vogue, wasn't the yellow tint some sort of adhesive residue that would burn off in a couple of days and leave you with a perfect screen?

People keep saying this but my 2yr old 5S still has yellow tint at the top and sides.
 
Power button rattle only (and the only reason I noticed was thanks to MR lol). It's my son's device and he doesn;t care; wife is still deciding if she wants to go from a 6s to the SE. Oddly enough the facetime/selfie camera is what is holding her back. She facetimes once a month and I am unsure she has taken a selfie ever so... we all have our wants :)
 
Can you add a "don't have a 5s...yet" option? I'd like to see the results without voting (particularly helpful for people who are considering getting one).

honestly, the rattle doesn't bother me, since i got the leather case (which is really nice by the way!), so the button is covered... but the yellow screen really does.

Sleep/wake button rattles and MAYBE a slight yellow tint at the top when using apps that have white backgrounds.. Not enough to replace it, no doubt end up with a 7 in sept anyway..
