Some iPhone 11 Users Complain of Display With Odd Green Tint

[Naraxus]

Fix it quickly? Are you kidding me? This ‘bug’ does not affect operations, it not in any way a show stopper. This is a classic example of a first world problem gone crazy. It’s not even annoying to most users. Please, Apple, no supplemental update is needed to fix this cosmetic glItch. Just take care of it whenever, it’s not urgent. Get a grip people.

And like always Apple's White Knight rushes to their defense. Nobody ever said it was a "show stopper". Nobody ever said it "affected operations", they just said they hope Apple can get to fixing it in a timely manner.

Your histrionics is showing. As usual.

The original GameBoy from 1989 is haunting this device! YAY!!

No issues on my iPhone 11 pro.....but didn't buy a launch day model...waited a few months....flawless screen

I have this issue on my XS Max. Started happening recently. Happens to me on minimum brightness occasionally and I can’t figure out what triggers it. Initially I thought it was water damage.

No weird green color. But, I have had a dozen plus instances of opening the camera app and seeing vertical colored bars and very very grainy. I’ve screenshot 3 times the issue, but can’t seem to record the screen because it’s gone when I reopen it. iPhone 11 Pro. Had it since November. Started two weeks ago.

anyone else?

Apple does not talk not 1/7th of the World population in one hour lol

Wow dude, can I get some of what you’re smokin’? Cause that must be some good “stuff”.

I think is joke guys.

I get annoyed by how the oled has this crazy blue tint off axis. this is an inherent issue, but it still bothers me

 

[Baumi]

Literally unusable...

/s

Kidding aside, hopefully it’s just a minor software issue that’ll get fixed in a future update.

Actually I have the exact same issue of green tint at first 5-10 mins after opening my late-2013 retina macbook pro, and it started like 1-2 months ago.. I was really thinking my screen was hardware-wise going broke, but now I suspect it may be a software issue?!...

 

[FattiesGoneWild]

Yes I have this issue every once in a while unlocking. 11 Pro Max.

You mean you don’t have your scheduled calls 4 times a day? I asked if they could move mine so I had them all in one go (sleeping for 7 hours was just annoying) but sadly it’s just how they work.

I wonder if this is actually software or hardware. It could be something like a certain percentage of screens are not quite as good as the others at initially dealing with low power scenarios so the fix might just have to be raising the minimum brightness.

I notice this on my iPhone X but only on lowest brightness.

This happens on my 11 Pro occasionally. It seems like it happens at night when it does happen. Dark mode and night shift are enabled on my phone.
Everything looks washed out with a green tint. It goes away after a few seconds and looks normal from there.

 

[jacekwo]

When it’s green, you‘re in the matrix.

 

[johnnytravels]

So, is there a green tint that wouldn’t be considered odd?

Commas are sold out everywhere these days. I blame it on shortages due to the coronavirus.

But of course they do, they’re basically the incarnation of ‘great’ in “Make America Great Again”
Also extreme hyperbole is never a sign of sarcasm.

No issues here yet but won’t be surprised if it pops up. Upgraded since my otherwise perfect iPhone 7 Plus has the Audio IC issue. My iMac has a display issue (guessing due to heat). New MacBook Pro keys stick occasionally. Almost always something goes wrong with Apple products if it’s not broken out of the box.

 

[boswald]

Never had this problem with my iPhone X. I wonder what the cause is...

 

[Septembersrain]

I'm still on 13.3. Haven't experienced it. Though I did see weird off colors on my original 11 Pro Max. It was exchanged at the Apple Store. They pointed out a few issues with the screen. Perhaps that device may have experienced this green tint but I didn't keep it long after all the colors stayed washed out and uneven after playing with color filters.

 

[naturalstar]

Never experienced this. Hopefully it stays that way.

 

[trip1ex]

I have seen some of this on my 7th gen iPad

Some iPhone 11, 11 Pro, and 11 Pro Max owners have been noticing an unusual green tint to their iPhone displays when first unlocking the device, based on complaints shared on Reddit and the MacRumors forums.

It's not clear what's going on, but almost all of the affected users say that the green tint is visible just for a few seconds after unlocking an iPhone. Some users have seen it at night with Dark Mode and Night Shift enabled, while others say it occurs when brightness is at the lowest possible setting. A MacRumors reader describes the problem:According to some users, the weird tint has been popping up since the iOS 13.4.1 update, which suggests that it may be a software issue. Some people were able to get the tint issue to cease after restarting, but others were not.

iPhone 11, 11 Pro, and 11 Pro Max models appear to be primarily affected, but there have also been some complaints from iPhone X users. iOS 13.4.1, iOS 13.5, and iOS 13.5.1 all seem to have the issue, based on reports from users.

If this is indeed a software problem, Apple may be able to address the issue in a future iOS update. iOS 13.5.5 is in testing right now, and it's not clear if that fixes the bug as of yet.

Can i have some credit for taking that photo, And anyways here a report after my iphone 11 pro went for a display replacement. It din't fix the issue so i doubt its a display issue.

 

[Wanted797]

My iPhone X has done this forever on the lowest brightness.

My iPhone X has done this forever on the lowest brightness.

It usually happens at low brightness, and in dark surroundings, or either in the morning when you try to unlock your phone. But any other timing do happen but not as often.

 

[AnonMac50]

Yeah I’m getting this with my iPhone X as well. Have been for a while.
