Quick question for you all. I recently got a mid-2014 rmbp and I feel like the right side of the screen is more yellow than the left side of the screen. The thing that made me notice it first was the various clickable options near the address bar. My question is, do all of your rmbp look like this? Should I wait and see if the right side gets more white? or should I exchange this one?

If you're not happy with it, then return it.

My rMBP's color is uniform and non-yellow. Some displays do tend to have a yellow cast to them, and it seems to be displeasing to most people (mine doesn't have this).
 
Honestly, I feel like I would be fine if the color was at least uniform. However, on the other side of the coin, I could end up with a machine that has worse issues (dead pixels, bright spots, etc). Im very torn. I don't do any work on my mac having to do with photos or videos but it is something I notice, but only on bright white backgrounds.
 
I am not having that issue. I would recommend before you return it to calibrate your screen, I prefer the cool blue vs the warm yellow.
 
Got my Mid 2014 rMBP 2 days ago and had the same issue except it was on the left side of my screen. Just like you said I noticed it right away on the icons along the address bar. Took it back, asked for an exchange and got a perfect display imo. Take it back !
