iPhone 4 Owners Report Display Discoloration Issues

iPhone 4 Owners Report Display Discoloration Issues

Posted June 23, 2010 at 6:02pm by iClarified
A number of new iPhone 4 owners are reporting that their just delivered devices are suffering from a yellow discoloration on the retina display. Currently, there is no explanation for why this is happening and Apple Stores have no replacements available.

Threads have been started at MacRumors and the Apple Discussion Forums about the issue.

Hopefully this isn't a widespread problem...

This is due to excessive heat from the logic board (same thing that happens to the first gen iPhone if you remember)

It's not the iPhone screen discolored, it's the users eyes not working to Apples specifications.

If I remember correctly, the same thing happened to the 3G when it first came out.

This is just signature Apple behavior for the first batch. Why are you surprised when you know we work in ultimate secrecy?!
