I think I know why some screens are yellow.

I traded my yellow screen EVO for a new white one and after using it for a few days it looks like my new one is turning yellow. The only thing I can think of is its the sun and heat turning it yellow since I do put it on a dash mount where the sun shines on it...

If that is true I bet it's the parallax barrier...
...though I have my doubts.
Direct sunlight will always **** a phone screen up if left in the heat just don't leave the face in direct heat
Can you post a pic if this so called yellow screen

Stop peeing on your phone !!! Haha jk I don't notice a tint on my screen.

Cool or Warm temp display?

Like most phones there are two types of LCDs used. Some having cool temperature displays with a more blueish tint to the screen (my preference) and some with warm temperature with a more yellow tint to the screen. This is more noticeable when viewing a white screen. Anyways, trying to see which one in more prevelant in the HTC rezound. The phone on the left is the blue tint display and the phone on the right is the yellow tint display.
Mine looks white when on a white screen lol. Maybe once you upload the pics I can tell!!!

I say more blue too!!
Mine is warm for sure, which is good in my opinion. Warm always looks closer to "real life" colors to me.

Also just so you know, it's almost impossible to tell which one you have unless you are comparing it to the opposite one right in front of your face.

I can personally tell as soon as I turn the device on.
question
For the people that are claiming to have a cool display. Are you also having the problem with the bottom four buttons lighting up pinkish instead of red? Kind of curious because I have seen this as a pattern with a couple of different rezounds. On the rezounds that I have seen with the Warm display, they do not have the pink button issue, that I have seen. This could just be a coincidence with all of the rezounds that I have seen. Just wondering.
Nope. I have beautiful red buttons and what I believe to be a cool display.

Same here! I have nice red buttons and a cool display. I have been checking all day and have never seen a hint of yellow!
Interesting. I would definitely say mine is warm. I noticed my old hTC EVO 4G was much bluer/cooler like the phone on the left in the OP picture.

Screen opinion

I know I've seen this topic become but I can't remember where so I'll ask here.
Which do you prefer for your screen (mostly noticeable on the whites) the "cool blue" or the "warm yellows"
I'm seeing this differentiation more and more with these new phone specifically in the past year. Before that I never noticed the difference.
I have two phones and ironically they are one of each. I have to send one back but can't decide =/
Looking for some opinions

Ditto, my white is white... doesn't have blue or yellow tint on it. I hate screens with a color temperature that is way off... if I can notice either yellow or blue tinting to whites, I am annoyed.
Saw a g nexus at best buy that looked like it had jaundice.

Prefer the slightly warmer picture. Looks more natural than a blue tinted picture.

I didn't mean it looks blue or yellow I should have just said warm or cool
Edit: well the warmer one does have a yellow tint. Maybe I'll add pics when I can find a camera

White or black

What do you guys like better? A white one or the black one?

Depends on what you like best, I hear the white ones get small hair cracks in it, but that's just hearsay, just do some research.

I had the black one and switched to the white one and I like the white one better. Its more classy

White is a girl's phone color. To me, when the screen is off, the white phone looks like crap...white on the bottom and top and a big black screen. You don't have that issue with a black phone.

White for me. I dont think its a girls phone. It attracts alot of attention. Only downside is the zagg protector yellows after a while :-/

I always thought the two color choices were white and carbon blue... Where are you guys finding a black one at?

Love the grippy back on the black phone. Plus I think it will show less wear and tear over time than white\chrome. Also, when trying to decide, the light bleed on the buttons on the white phone really irritated me. So I went with black (to the poster above, Carbon Blue is black. there is nothing blue about it).
To each their own, don't want to be part of a flame war. It was just what led me to the decision (which I assume is what the OP is trying to do).
Had the black Note for about 3 weeks, then traded it for a white one. I've always had black phones and just wanted to switch it up. The white phone just looks fresh to me. I've got an Elago slim case and a SGP oleophobic screen protector on, so I'm not really worried about it getting dirty.
My note is black, my case is black, my headphones are black. But in the end it's just a color (or lack thereof depending on your perception). If they only offered just white, I would have got that and been just as happy. I say get the one you think is pretty and you'll be fine

I got the white note and have the brown flip case... Looks like a journal when i take it out of my pocket. I like the looks of the white and got a glas.t so no yellowing like with the zagg.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I like the white in theory, but as others noted (ha) the contrast of the black screen against the white case is a little stark, especially when the screen is so big.
The trim cracking is also a concern, so when I exchanged my carbon blue I stayed with that color. I recently helped my mom upgrade to a new iPhone and we got her a white one - she's quite happy with that, although black or dark cases on it look quite weird. My Note with a cheapo black TPU case looks excellent.
Everybody has black phones. So I went white. It's pretty
I had the white one. To be honest it looked like a big bar of soap. I like my black one better now
Sent from my SGH-I717D using xda premium
I don't like that the white one has a glossy back battery cover. The black looks nice when screen is off and I like the texture of black's battery door.
I have a hair line split on my white note, but the translucent cases look nice on the White Phone.
When did Samsung release a black version?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
The black people are referring to is the carbon blue model, because the front face is actually black, and the back cover is basically black, with maybe a tiny tiny hint of blue in the right lighting. Easier to say black than carbon blue.

Love my white one. Using ghost armor on it and get a lot of compliments. The phone attracts attention to matter what because of the size, but white slightly more. That can be both good and bad, up to u

I'm well aware that it's Carbon Blue and not black. Just poking some fun at those calling it the wrong color.

Black or Gold?

What color G3 did you guys get? Are you happy with your choice? I played with the gold one at the store and it looks real nice..
Sent from my EVO using xda
I went with the black "Greyish" color. I'm happy with it.
I thought the gold one looked like a toy, so i went with the black. I really wish they would have had the white.
I went in to get the gold one, but when I looked at it, I thought it looked bad. I ended up getting the black/gray one.
Lol! Guess I'm gonna have to check out the black one.. is it more like a grayish color?

Black one here too. Yes, it does appear more on the grey side.
I dunno the gold one I have just looks really nice. Im sick of black vs white phones just boring

I got gold, mostly because it was the only one available at target but I was gonna get the gold color anyways. Wanted to break away from the normal black I get.

Gold here. Liked the way it looks with the black screen and bezel. Had nothing but black/grey/dark blue phones in the past, liking the change.
Get the Red one...........
And please use your other thread for this....Thread Closed
