Alright so my replacement 6P finally arrived. My first unit had a *very* nonuniform screen, being quite yellow at the top and transitioning to very pink at the bottom. Some backgrounds made this especially obvious.
My replacement 6P has almost perfect screen uniformity *but* it has the coffee stain look to the whites. There seems to be a theory that 6500K is a little yellow, but mine is quite yellow, exactly like a coffee stain on a white piece of paper. Compared to my other phone with identical settings looking at identical backgrounds, it is very obvious in person (seems to be difficult to capture with a photo). Even the "yellow" parts of my original phone are whiter than my new phone.
Another theory is it's the screen adhesive that needs to cure - however the yellow portions of my original phone's screen did no change after a week of use.
So what do you guys think? RMA a third time, or accept that these displays are a little yellow? My gut tells me to RMA since it was immediately noticeable without even comparing it to another phone, but since there is a very high chance of my third RMA having issues, will google pass me off to Huawei and start another round of headaches on phone #4?
Phone 1 with a horribly uneven screen (yellow top/pink bottom) has a build date of Oct 24.
Phone 2 with a very uniform, but very yellow screen has a build date of Oct 27.
Both are 32GB Graphite.
Thoughts? Thanks!
