Hi all:
I just got my Xperia XZ1, and I have noticed that the screen does looks yellow compared to Xperia XZ and other smartphones like LG G6 when the screen show white color.
I know that we can change the Blue color in the white color balance option to make the screen looks more blue like other smartphones.
but my question is """" Is All The XZ1 Units Screens Show The White Color More in The Yellow Side ? """""
to explain more ............ the white color in the XZ1 looks like yellow !!!!
the Xperia XZ1 screen is a very crisp and clear one, I do feel that colors are alive but I'm wondering if all XZ1 units have the same screen or my XZ1 screen have a problem and if there is a problem is it a software or hardware problem ???????
Change in Settings-> Display -> Color gamut -> sRGB professional
This solved for me the same yellowish white color on my XZ1 and colors looks more natural now.

Hey Even I have the same issue, My old Z2 is much natural n blue. I even kept my blue colour balance at the maximum 255 but still looks yellow compared to the z2's 85 blue. Did it really work after you've done a factory reset?
Adjust your white balance setting.
R - 0
G - 50
B - 150

Thanks for sharing this settings.
My screen looks looks much better and more natural.
BTW. Any idea to know the oem screen brand name and version?
It could be good to compare and find if there is different screen model and which one looks yellowish ?
I noticed that when switching between colour gamut modes, the display randomly gets a very red tint. Switching gamut again will restore normal white balance. Also, I find that the white of my xz1's display is very neutral. If I look at my xz1 after having looked at a more blueish display of my Z3 Compact for a while, the xz1 will look yellowish because my eyes have adapted to the cold blue tint of the z3 compact display. But after letting my eyes adapt to my xz1 again, its display beats my z3 compact out of the water in terms of white balance.
Also, blueish screens are worse for your sleep

Thanks, but the colors are to "cold".
Best I could get, trying to match to a good calibrated XZ screen. (XZ screen targeted to 6500k).
For (now) my settings are, with color gamut set to standard:
R 142
G 0
B 179
R 42
g 108
b 255

I bought a used unit of XZ1C and I noticed the yellowish it too.
And here I thought my display is making problem and honestly I thought the Night Mode were enabled but its not.
I guess its normal? My POCO F1 looks more crispy.

Are u sure that opx is true black amoled??
What if I say you ... that ..It has a backlight ..
Wanna verify?
Important: make sure u have brightness slider to near low levels. This backlight is not seen at high brightness levels.
Download a gallery like quickpic that lets u open a picture in Fullscreen mode so that picture fills entire screen.
Make a bmp image in ms paint in windows and fill it with perfect black. Or download from some website with hex value coding -enter zero for all numbers
Now load this picture in quickpic or any other Fullscreen gallery.
Switch off every light in ur room .make d room jet dark
Wait a few seconds for your eyes to adapt to darkness
U will see the backlight instead of black.
For more easy recognition see in peripheral field of vision, where low light vision is good. (Focus point of eye doesn't have low light vision ,am a doc.) (see somewhere else, bring in the phone into vision filed)
If u think the gallery is d problem.
Do this same thing in any other amoled phone. You will know the meaning of black.
(I did in Moto x ghost )
It's not a backlight. No AMOLED screen uses a backlight. That would defeat the whole purpose of AMOLED.
What happens is, even if the pixels are black (switched off), they are fed a tiny amount of voltage from the motherboard to allow quick switching of colors so they are never completely turned off. As a result, even when displaying black they emit a very faint glow.
I'm not sure if this only happens on pentile displays (like the one in the OPX and most Samsung phones) and I can't verify since the only AMOLED devices I own are pentile, but my Galaxy S3 Neo also has this "problem". Personally I wouldn't worry too much about it, since even with the glow the blacks are WAY deeper than any LCD display with a backlight can produce.

Thank God man.
I thought my phone is fake display.
Ur reply is proof that knowledge helps..
Btw just curious.. what are you?? How do you know this information not available in internet... So nice to see you man.
And regarding ur doubt, whether this happens in non pentile array amoled ...
NO.
I own a RGB amoled -Moto x ghost phone. It doesn't happen there.
I will check in moto x droid turbo . My cousin has it. So I will do and post results here.
And I wish to add this :
A 312 ppi RGB amoled (I have moto x ghost, 720p, 4.7 inch) is way better much much better than 440 ppi pentile amoled ( I have opx, full HD 5inch)
If I compare the images, they are much cleaner and sharper than opx . It's like the image has a depth, there is some stillness kind of feel. ...( I use colour control kcal, and so I test the displays in many settings not just default.
For example to make the images look similar as moto x ghost so that we can compare, I use rgb values as 32, 30, 27 value at 123, contrast at 121 and then slide the brightness slider to 3/4 or more.
Now both images look same in terms of how much dark areas are visible , the white wash noted in opx is now gone.
Now the images are ready for comparision.
Now the difference is the sharpness or clarity in rgb amoled. The feel difference i get is that there is depth in RGB. Its has a grip.
If you're colorblind, please disregard this thread. Rate this thread to express how you deem the color saturation and accuracy of the LG G6's display. A higher rating indicates that you think that color accuracy is very high and saturation is excellent.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
The LCD is fairly color accurate all considering. This screen is very close to what I achieve using a hardware color calibrate with my work machines. The reds are not too red (faux saturation) and the cooler tones show up as prominently.
It's just a shame I can't hook up a hardware calibrator to it to test it.
Solid color accuracy
I am coming from a OnePlus 3T, so when first firing up the G6 I was a little disappointed. I couldn't believe how much more vivid the AMOLED screen was compared to the LCD. Well, now that I have been using the G6 exclusively for the past two days, I am growing quite fond of this screen. The colors are quite accurate and precise, just not as vivid/saturated as what I was looking at for the past 6 months. Liking this phone more and more each day.
The screen color temperature is definitely on the cool side, certainly higher than 6500K.
It is not pleasant at first for me. I've been using Nexus 6P on sRGB mode for more than a year, and the color saturation on the G6 under default, out of the box settings is disheartening.
To somehow mitigate this, what I did was to enable ComfortView, set at Low Setting. It's far from perfect, but that's better than nothing.
How is this compared to the S8/+ ?

From what I saw side by side compared to the S8+ at full brightness, I could see the whites having a more pinkish hue very slightly than the S8+. The S8+ having brighter highlights. Obviously, the S8+ also has deeper blacks, more saturated, and viewing angles are much better because of its AMOLED display. Other than that, the overall range of colours seemed fairly close between the G6 and S8+.
Not sure who will see this but I think the G6 LCD screen compared to an amoled like the one's on the oneplus 3/3t/5 and the s8/s8+ is just better in certain scenarios. There are some people who might be audiophile esque and want high fidelity and things like that. And there might be some people who like bass boosted beat headphones and other things like that which are not accurate at all but are enjoyable on a certain level. If you like big bass sound and you are that kind of person then you will like the amoled screen but I am personally not. I like knowing that what I see on my screen is what it is supposed to look like.
For instance the other day I was looking at a picture of the fifty shades of gray poster. It is supposed to be black and gray but it had a colored tint to it on the s8 compared to a g6 which looked as it should. All I am saying is that there are going to be times when the s8 because it pops colors so much will make what you see innacurate. And that might bother you or it might not. But it bothers me.
Exactly what Scape said. Tech people who know their stuff want accurate color reproduction and analytic sound. The wide mass wants flashy Colors and boomsound. Easy people rate phones by how saturated the phone looks. The more saturation = the better. This is complete BS for people who have knowledge about Electronics. Its like comparing people who buy a Classic car and put Chrome rims on it not caring for the paint because "CROME RIMZ M8". Where there are also people which buy a classic car, care to make it look as original as possible and know every part of their car.
The 2nd. Car may look boring to people, but its quality and worthwise extremely preferable. For example a natural Color reproduction can help when taking photos with the G6. If you take a photo on the Amoled Screen of a Galaxy, and then open it on your calibrated IPS, you will be flashed about how different it looks then on the phone. Thats not what you want.
Regarding the Bass... Well i like perfect color recreation but i hate neutral speakers or headphones, im quite a basshead but i still want a good clarity, deep stage and low noise.
Guys did anyone you tried screen color adjustment under settings-accessibility ?

Yeah, i kept my custom color setting enabled for a few weeks since the blue color looked way better. It is only when switching back to the default setting that i noticed how washed out the reds looked. I reverted back to the defaults.

True
I bought G6 after iP6S+ and I'm really disappointed from display over all. Blue is on G6 boosted as hell. At home I have calibrated displays and iPhone is much more closer. I can't watch photos (photographer) on G6 because of it. Even automatic brightness control is not ok for me. It's still dimmer than I want. LuxLite solved that but colors are terrible.
Why my phone is reporting me that I have screen resolution of 1440x2703 and PPI 544? https://imgur.com/a/lNXhw

This is bad news for me, I find the G6 screen beautiful (I am under 7.0) and I do not like at all the rendering amoled screens, precisely because of the saturated colors..
I found on 7.0 that the flesh tones on netflix and terrarium tv were way washed out.looked like everyone never saw the sun lol Na just saying I think LG just corrected the saturation a little bit to not make things so washed out looking.The reds are a little darker also instead of a orangey yellow tint.And like before the greens were not as dark .kinda reminded me of a mint or pastel green.Now on Oreo it is a true green and red.
Is there any app or any online guides to correct the LG G6 color accuracy and get true neutral white balance?
I have s8 and G6. I hate Amoled with that compotish colors. White is not white. Ever with pink or blue or yellow. Amoled is like woman with silicon tits. Far from reality. For me LG and Sony make most better displays.
Does anyone use this? I did for a while. I found it very good at adjusting the blues making them a bit darker FB looks much better IMO after I adjusted it
I've noticed that when I watch youtube videos the people's skin looks a little bit yellowish and in general I don't like in general that the yellow seems a little bit off .How do you have your own color balance?
There is no best when it comes to colors, you can change the colors in the display setting to what ever you like.

I just set it to Adaptive Display.
Hello RXT Users,
I bought a new Realme XT (6GB,64GB, Pearl White) Mobile, which works like a beast.
But within a week, I accidently noticed that the true deep blacks of Amoled display actually kills the surrounding Grey colour pixels especially in videos (or moving frames).
When I using Instagram, Samsung just posted some photos. when I try to swipe one photo horizontally, I noticed that the gradient colours (White to black) are like vanished some time and and a bluish shade is appearing btw the blacks and whites.
Then I started comparing this with other LCD panel, which is not doing these weird things. I also did a side by side comparison btw Realme XT and other LCD display by playing a dark horror movie. The results came was not expected.
First things first, the picture quality, colours, contrast and viewing angles are awesome in Amoled display, But the grey coloured details which are nearer to the black pixels are missing, they are completely gone.
Example:
• Original frame in the movie - A dark room with cupboards and interior.
• Picture shown in LCD display - white blushed dark room with cupboards and interior.
• Picture shown in Realme XT - A Deep Dark Black room with no interiors no cupboards or even no walls.
I can't understand why the Amoled display takes more time when pixels changes from black to grey colours, may it's because of low refresh rate.
Can anyone please tell the display refresh rate of Realme XT and try the above tests to clarify that I am not the only one who got these weird thing. Thanks in advance.
Note: I am using Amoled display for the first time.
This is quite disturbing to know. I was planning on buying XT and returning my Poco armoured, as it has ghost touch issues and I don't need that much processor power for daily usage.
Also, with XT getting started on development I hope I won't miss Poco. But with the above-mentioned issue, I'm getting skeptical because my primary reason to get XT was AMOLED display. I don't want to get disappointed by it.
Although it doesn't has ambient display and dark mode yet but I hope it'll be there in future updates.
Sent from my POCO F1 using XDA Labs
After reading this post I checked my xt's display for the greys in dark scenes with my le 2 LCD display and I'm pretty satisfied. I was able to see most of the details of dark scenes that was visible on the other phone. Plus I found it's very vibrant as compared to the le 2 and brightness level is also much better.

Thats how amoled works.. Not problem phone.. Amoled screens are like that..
When viewing my S21 straight on colours are accurate but when viewing from an angle of about 30 degrees I have a strong blue tint.
I know AMOLED screens do get colour shift but this is stronger than I expected, do all S21s do this?

No issues on my S10 AMOLED display.
You can try to adjust colours in settings - display with several options. And there are color filters you can set in settings - accessibility - visibility enhancements.
Maybe it helps ... a little bit.
