I’m gonna make a bet right now and say that it does. Not to burst your bubble, but it would seem like Apple would want the whole lineup to look similar (assuming the warm screens aren't defective, but a choice).
This is right. 6500k would be great and match my calibrated displays. These are about 5500k. If it was 6500k this thread wouldn’t exist.
How were your displays calibrated? Not saying they aren't, it just seems improbably that Apple would have a giant batch of iPhone 12 with wildly uncalibrated displays, and that reviewers who colorimeter check displays (like Phone Arena) haven't noticed.
I can't speak to his, but I can talk to mine.
Both look like they have this issue. You got a bad XS. huge thread that year too.
Characteristic of OLED. Some of the screens shifting seem to do it less, but it's par for the technology
Not sure I’m afraid. Paid an ISF certified bloke to do it. He had a flight case with a load of gear in it and spent hours over it. I couldn’t tell you what he used though, sorry.
OLED usually has blueshift when tilting. What he's describing is the screen looking piss yellow when tilting. Of my four 12 Pros, the original and three replacements, the 1st replacement was the only one that didn't exhibit this to a disgusting degree. It's there, but much less so. Still a yellower screen in general head-on, but not dark yellow when tilted. Still going to try at least one more time for another replacement in a few weeks.
Problem is, that it is already to yellow for my liking without true tone and night shift. Using color filter to get it right, makes it less vibrant. Yesterday there was a periode, where I wasn't bothered, but guess that was due to daylight.
Seeing the exact same here on my 12 Pro / XS, although what doesn't come across in your picture is how much better the contrast appears on the XS. It's not just that the 12 Pro has a dull amber tint that makes it look like a 25 year old newspaper and makes you check if Night Shift is still on, it's also that the light and contrast are weaker at the same settings. Everything's just more yellow and washed out. Someone at Apple must really, really like urine. I reluctantly had to turn True Tone off to match it with my iPad Pro and my old trusty XS.
I have not been able to read any source confirming that the iPhone 12 Mini or iPhone 12 Pro Max have a panel manufactured by Samsung.
I don’t think it’s likely that a source will ‘confirm’ it. I assume Apple suppliers would have a degree of confidentiality around their contracts. You could probably dig into announcements made to investors for each of the suppliers though I dent think they would name the device and just refer to an order for x million screens etc.

Yeah, now that I’ve had more time with it, there is a weird yellow tint, even with True Tone off. The whole thing just looks bad. It reminds me of an old TN panel for my desktop. I think I’m gonna return it and stick with my XS another year.
