LOL....wow! An internet warrior....please insult the ones trying to help some more...we can take it. :rolleyes:



Why are you trying to force you will on to others? What's wrong with giving one options to try if they so choose?

Enjoy your yellow screen. Keep comparing and hoping it'll go away. In the mean time, I'll go buy a pad with a clear screen out of the box and start enjoying it right now. See you in 2-4 weeks. Hope it works out for you.

So is this you're reply? Is this all you have? That dysfunctional " In order for you to win, someone has got to lose? "

Some of us try and help others with options. I guess you're not one of those...I feel sorry for you. Good day to you.

Listen man, some of us demand the best. If a product has more than one variation on the market, I want the best one. It speaks volumes about how you view yourself and what your self esteem level is if you are content with rolling over and letting Apple decide whats best for you.

I personally will not accept a defective screen. If you choose to be Apples lap dog and try to "wait it out", its your choice. I'll just be buying another one and most likely itll have the clear non-yellow display. So I'm saying since you are putting so much energy in trying to like your yellow screen, more power to you! I just have standards, thats all.

You cannot argue the data I put up. If you or the other guy want to call me a liar that's fine. But if you want to say the data is inaccurate. Go tell these guys spectracal.com that their software is bad. And the guys over at x-rite that their i1 display pro that is still within nist certification is bad.

Oh while your at it go tell everyone that does calibration for a living that everything they know is wrong. Here go to avsforums .

Who knows if it was intentional by apple to have their displays closer to 6500k. Or maybe Samsung. You would think apple would give the display mfg's certains specifications their displays must meet.
 
Sorry dude, you can put up all the "data" you want, but when a white background looks yellow, it doesn't matter.

It's a little embarrassing that people continue to argue that some of the screens shown in this thread are normal, let alone that they are somehow BETTER. When white looks piss yellow, that is all the evidence you need that something is seriously wrong (Note that not all iPads shown here have been that bad.)

I am leaving this thread . To many trolls, kids, etc....

If anyone wants more information on how to read the graphs I posted, etc.... Feel free to shoot me a PM.

Kre62 not you please. I have my own toddler that I teach.

We know because the majority of the iPads do not have this yellow tint. Thats how we know.

As far as professional calibrators, who says they are right? Its all man made right? I think the best measure is what looks best to a completely unbiased normal person. And that person will pick the neutral less yellow display every time. Maybe its because the sky is blue and casts a bluish tone on the real world? Don't know. But I do know that the neutral or even bluish tinted screens look way more correct to me then the yellow ones.

If you open the settings app, and its not a clear distinct grey color, but more of a dingy grey, you dont have accurate color. I just want colors to look like they should, not like I have a pair of yellow ski goggles on.

No what you're doing is putting more energy in trying to be right then helping others with other options or solutions, and in turn, belittling others who are only trying to help. But I see, this gives you a rise, which is sad.

But I won't be as you are and insult you....not my way....good luck on you're replacement.
 
Here's a shot of my screen.

Original iPad(black) on the left, new iPad(white) on the right. Both set at 100% brightness. The new iPad seems to have a bit warmer color, however I prefer it.

Yeah no one wants more info bro. Keep trying to convince the world that yellow-grey is more accurate then grey. In the mean time, we'll all be enjoying our clear displays. You keep rocking that yellow screen though.

As far as you leaving the thread.....BYE

You still arent getting it. We arent helping people rebuild their house here. People shouldnt have to have options or solutions. This is a luxury item,a nd is not neccesary for survival or something like that. Demand the best, stick up for yourself. Thats all I'm saying.
 
Put your calibrators away. If nothing else, this marathon thread should show everyone that there are huge variances with the panels that Apple is using for the 3rd generation iPad from one unit to the next, so there is no blanketed standard to go by or mass observation.

If your display shows a correct calibration, that means that YOUR display shows a correct calibration - it means nothing for the 'iPad 3 display' as a whole or for the poster before or after you.

If you're happy with your iPad display, don't piss on the people who aren't. I expect top notch quality from Apple and a display that looks dim and hued to the right and bright and clear to the left is not quality in my book.

As far as screen tint, there is yellow, there is blue and there is normal. Normal natural toned displays are not yellow and they are out there, so keep swapping until you get one. It's obvious that the masses aren't picky (or do not have an eye for detail), which is only good for Apple.

My iPad was almost $900, I want an amazing ****ing display that's evenly lit with no hue shifting (which is painfully obvious while reading email and iBooks or doing anything with a white screen).

Great post, agree with you 100%. I'm with you, neutral or blue for me. Neutral is probably the best, but leaning blue wont bother me.

People are grown, they don't need you to spank them. They can have other options or solutions if they so choose. What they should or shouldn't do is not for you to decide.

If you have feel you contribute something positive to the thread, by all means do so.....You can do that without having to be negative with others who gave theirs. You can give one without the other.....People will read yours and if they like what you have to say...they will try that....if not they will try someone else's.

My point is people shouldt have to have options or solutions.

If you are trying to make the yellow go away, then you arent happy with your display right? People who are happy with the warm tint arent in this thread, cause they dont care. But then heres a guy like you, trying to max out his brightness and run the screen a bunch to see if the yellow is really glue and will go away.

Then obviously you arent hapy with your screen right? If you are trying to change your screen from its current state to a different state, then you arent happy, wouldnt you say? So then why would you put up with it? If deep down you want your yellow display to be more neutral, as it appears you do, then take it back!

People who want solutions for their yellow screen are obvously not happy with it, so theres just one solution: Take. It. Back.

Ok This screen thing is weird . Mine will be pinkish for a little while then it will be less pinkish there is something causing the screens to shift color temps slightly on my iPad . My roommate noticed it to saying wow that has a pretty destintive pink (redish) hue then I will show him when it changes he says yes its less now . So its just not me. Maybe the glass on top as it is polarized and depending on natural light or led lighting etc it will look slightly different. As I notice the pink hue more during natural lighting then at night with regular lighting.

I will wait and see if it corrects it's self in a week if not I will return and wait as much as I love the new retina screen the hue issues are starting to really make it less enjoyable my ad 2 color temp was perfect . Not to much yellow, red or blue hues perfect color temp.

Mine is the same way. Definitely warmer color temperature than my iPad 1, iPhone 4 and iMac. It's not my preference, but I could live with it given that my panel is pretty uniform and free of any light bleed. However that warm creme color become a reddish / pink hue under natural lighting--either coming in through the windows or when sitting outside. Really looks horrible against the white bezel.

yeah man, that is some BS right there. No way you should put up with that. I'm not interested in "putting up" with my luxury computer purchase.
 
It didnt. Its placebo. your screen is still yellow, and always will be. This I promise you.


And even if it did go away why should you put up with it? When others are getting pure clear sceens out of the box?

Listen if this affected all pads then maybe the wait and see would fly, but many people arent even having to deal with this issue so why should you?

Start demanding more from the worlds most valuable company. They have like 40% profit margins on these things. Why should you suffer?

I think the placebo is in these people seeing one post & then saying "oh yeah mine too".

Here's what mine looks like. So weird.

Monkey look a few posts up at Xenosagas screenshot and tell me if you think the one on the right looks better.

If you read my post you would see I went to the apple store first. You do know that there are many people who read these threads that don't live next to an apple store right? My post is for those that don't have easy access to exchange their devices. I was curious to see if there was other possibilities as I saw there were others that don't have options to replace it in a day, like me and you have....and may have to wait for one in the mail, that might be as yellow as the one they sent back.

I'm well off, and if I wasn't able to fix my issue, I would have went and got it replaced....but as it stands I don't have the issue anymore, i'm quite happy with the results.

Again best of luck to you.

Listen, you might have gotten used to the yellow tint and are now happy with it, and thats fine. But your screen is still yellow, and will remain so. I know from the last 4 Apple product launches I've been a part of. It never goes away.

Except the yellow tint is gone...as I had compared it to the ones in the apple store that is behind my house and it matches the non yellow demo ones.

If it wasn't I would have just talked to them about again about a replacement.

Why do you care so much what my screen looks like? Shouldn't the person who owns it be the one worried about it?

Please....point out the yellow your seeing....maybe I'm wrong.

Cause it looked like this one before.

So how many days do we have to swap out for something like this? 14 days? I just wanna wait a few days until the apple store isn't slammed.

I've got the top half of screen is yellow and the bottom half is normal...very irritating
 
Absolutely howling with laughter at the people trying to not only argue that the yellow screen is ok, now trying to say its SUPERIOR to a neutral display. This is too much. Ha ha ha.

Listen ill say it one more time. This has happened with every launch. Its not intentional its a defect. Theres ipad screens right now all over with neutral tint. Or even bluish. Both are preferable because white displays as white, not egg white or off white, white.

But listen if you want to try to convince yourself that yellow is white and is somehow preferable then no one is stopping you from enyoying your yellow display. Just dont try to convince everyone else, cause any normal person when shown the two side by side will pick the one with the truer white.

Actually a bluish screen is bluish not white.
