Uneven Screen Coloring?

[Jdane07]

So I'm the guy who got a 6P that came all scratched up out of the box. I received my replacement yesterday, which was in excellent physical condition. However, the second I booted up the phone and started looking at light colored pages, I noticed something was off. The left side of the screen has a much cooler color temperature than the right. As you're looking at the screen, you can literally look left to right and see the color shift. It's like this is two different panels in one.

So once again, I'm coming back for advice. Should I just keep my original one which was scratched, but had a perfect screen? I don't know if having this kind of screen is something I can get used to and eventually 'unsee'.

The 6P on the right is the one in question. Notice how the grey on the left side of the screen is cooler in color temp than the grey on the right side.

It's something that bugs me a lot when reading text on light backgrounds, as it's really easy to see the color shift when reading through a line of writing.

Have had the same on two Nexus 6P. Got the first one exchanged. The dealer wouldn't get it exchanged a second time, so I ended up selling it at a loss. Got a 3rd one directly from Google and that one is finally flawless.

I have the feeling that we're all playing display roulette here with the 6P. Looks like a significant number of devices have the color cast issue.

Glad someone else went through this. I'm just going to stick with my original 6P... I can deal with some scuffs on the chamfered edges, but can't deal with a screen like that.
