Yellow screens! Why Apple? Why?!!!!

Apple screws up with the screens again. Wow. Anybody remember this problem last year? 2 diffferent LCD manufacturers led to one screen having white dots everywhere and the other being clear. But this year, every screen has this yellow tint. Yuck! I was just about to go buy it right now and saw all these sites talking about the yellow screens. Sigh. What a disappointment!!

Here's a link to the Gizmodo article about this.

I noticed a little difference between my old and new screens, but it's hard to be sure when I haven't got the new one activated yet.

mine looks fine...now yellow tint at all..not sure what you are speaking of...

All 3g iphones supposedly look like this. Apple cutting costs, using cheap LCD screens. This is pretty unacceptable IMO considering there was a huge LCD issue fuss last year. They're about to get tons of complaints again. Tsk tsk tsk.

i doubt they're ALL like this. considering the post above u said his doesnt. i would take that back and get a new one. theres NO way apple would make and sell millions of iphones with yellow tinted LCD screens.
