iPhone 12: Some users are complaining!

The issue of a yellow tint on the screen is resurfacing for the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro . Users are complaining that some screens aren't completely new. Indeed, some are reporting slightly yellowish colors compared to other iPhone 12 models or the iPhone 11.

Why do some screens turn slightly yellow?

Various voices are being raised, including those on MacRumors and Reddit. Users are sharing comparison photos between their iPhone 12 and iPhone 11 Pro models. Customers are complaining that production quantity has been prioritized over quality. They believe there is a lack of quality control or even deliberate high-volume production to offload recycled screens . According to one MacRumors user, the yellowing of the screen is not a new issue. Apple has encountered this problem every year since the iPhone 3G . This user believes it's intentional, allowing them to sell recycled screens to users who aren't looking for top quality. This explains why not all iPhone 12 screens produce the same tint.

Some users on MacRumors report that the quality assurance tolerance threshold has been lowered to allow the sale of recycled screens. Some are already hoping for replacements for their iPhones. It's worth noting that these iPhones are under warranty, and if there is a display issue, Apple will likely replace the affected models. To confirm the problem, users can perform a colorimetry test .
