iPhone 12 yellow screen

Hi ,the screen is shine but the yellow screen still problem for me

Hi TaterTats,

Did you ever do the comparison on this?

Just bought a 12 mini 8 months after launch and mine has the same yellow issue.

Is it worth upgrading to the Pro model?

No! they all the same.

I have 12 pro max with yellow screen. Returned 2 before and 3rd came with same yellow!

Exactly they should give you money off at least because it's refurbished so why pay full price for a used phone.

I did exactly what I demonstrated to my phone as well as my Fiancée's....and problem solved!

Home button on an iPhone 12 Pro?

Worked perfectly for me. Thanks mate

It’s like that because iPhone new to OLED. so hopefully they bring out a update to fix it, or they have messed up. But the phone supports vision and HDR so don’t know why the colours are dim and bland

I'm returning mine, I just cannot get used to the yellow tint. Color filters is not the solution. We should not need to do this, it is a bandage to a problem that should not exist in the first place. Real solution would be to add a white balance trigger on the display settings to that users can **only** shift the white tone vs throwing in an additional blue filter on top, which is what the color filters are doing. But there is a slim chance that Apple will do this.

If I'm paying $1k for a "Pro" device, I expect the display panel to be as good or better than my 2 year-old MacBook Pro and 3-year old iPad Pro.

I returned my 12 Pro as well. Completely unacceptable on a $999 USD phone. As long as people are complacent, Apple will continue to ship subpar displays. Unless they see an increase in returns, the issue will remain. Before returning I visited 2 different Apple stores to compare my 12 Pro to the ones in display, and ALL were equally bad or worse. All of them noticeably worse than the display on the XS and 11 Pro, as well as my MacBook Pro and iPad Pro.

I gave Apple a pass on not adding a 120Hz display, not bringing Touch ID back (on the power button or under the display), not improving at all Face ID, as if they were unaware that face masks will be our new normal for the foreseeable future, but will not overlook this yellow display. Sorry Apple.

I bought a 12 Pro on release day as well, and just wasn't happy with the display, but couldn't put my finger on what was wrong. It wasn't till I had a reason to start up my old XS Max and has the two side by side that it really showed the issue with the yellow tint on the new 12 Pro.

I took the phone back to the Apple store yesterday, and the very helpful assistant got another 12 Pro out to compare with mine, and hers was even worse. She then got another, and that was the same as mine, but neither were as good as my old XS Max. They didn't have any phones in stock to replace my 12, so I just returned it and got a refund. So back to using my old XS for the moment.

There is definitely a problem out there with new 12 Pro devices and if you have one, it is worth comparing with another phone if you can. Set the the display to Light, the same brightness level and True Tone on and the Wight will have a yellow/dirty tint to it.

Don’t talk wet, it’s because apple so far behind in OLED technology. People reporting problems with the yellow, they is no vivid colours it all pale. I’m comparing with a pixel 4 OLED display and the pixel 4 have better a colour and Better illume. Plus the OLED display is only 60hz compare with Google 90hz and Samsung 120hz

Had exactly the same thing, even jumped on a chat with apple support. The told me nothing is wrong with the phone its at its true colour wart the due to apples research into keeping our eyes healthy, right.

however! I toggled True Tone a couple of times and boom, whiter than the my previous X side by side!

Oddly, my phone seems to have repaired itself of this problem. I compared it to my iPhone 7+ last night and the yellow tint is now gone. ????? Does the OLED display in the new phones have a break-in period or something?
