I'll return mine once they're back in stock.
Just noticed that's it's very annoying in landscape mode in safari, left part is yellow and the rest uniform :-(

My yellowing has definitely been slowly disappearing. It's barely noticeable at the top now. I don't think I'll bother exchanging now.
Those with yellowing - left it in direct sunlight for a while to see if it is related to glue drying (under UV light)?

Or you got used to it. I thought mine was gone 100%, but under a certain light, I can still see it, if only barely... Not a big deal. I played the iPhone lottery when I got my iPhone 6 and it was absolutely a pain. This is more than good enough for me.
That's my thoughts too. The lottery is too much hassle and you could end up worser off.
My iPhone 5 screen is worse in some ways to my SE, and I always thought over the years my iPhone 5 screen was not bad. So once I get used to the SE I won't notice the minor bits anymore.
Today i was in 2 different electronics stores and had a look at 2 se's displays( one was space grey the other rose gold ) and none of them had a yellow tint on top of the screen. The se's I saw in an Apple Store hadn't that either. Last week I saw a 5s, which was yellow on top of the screen..
All the se's seemed to have a warm display though but nothing to worry about..
I'm excited about my ordered se..

I did the same currys, johnlewis and apple.
On 6devices they all had some degree of yellow uneven backlight on top (visible on white background full screen).
Oh And they were all dimmer than my unit (could be another lottery problem or the fact that they're at full brightness all day?)
My T-Mobile TSMC SE does not have any yellowing. I'll get pics later, but compared to my old Note 5 and fiance's S7 I would say my SE is a tad warmer but the colors are pretty accurate and no blue tint like you get with a lot of Samsung screens. Happy and glad I no longer have to worry about the yellow issue now that the SE is in my hands.
Then why do iPhones that are years old still yellow? It's not a fact. The fact is that yellow = yellow and you getting used to the tint is what's causing the apparent "fading" of the tint. Maybe in 0.001% of the cases it was actually glue and the tint has really disappeared.
The speedtest server is different between the two tests...Thanks bro

This is from my s5 galaxy
Thats right but they where beside each other when I tested. Also reception isn't that good as the Galaxy s5 i didn't own an iPhone 6/6s interesting if I could test it
Mine is still there. I think there is no glue curing it's a myth.
Same here, got mine on launch day and the yellow band at the top of the screen is still there. My phone was probably manufactured around January time so the glue would have cured by now, if the glue cant cure in three months then they are using the wrong glue, total myth if you as me. I have a replacement on order, not due for another two weeks though.
