Odd iPhone Screen Color

[jyl]

Peculiar. The screen of my iPhone has a blueish tint when viewed up close with my left eye, and a yellowish tint when viewed with my right eye. I just noticed this.

My laptop screen does not look this way, nor does anything else. So I don't think it is my eyes, I hope not anyway.

Anyone with an iPhone able to check theirs?

Doesn't do that with mine.

I think that might be because of the digitizer/touch screen, a tablet PC at the office has that same sort of effect, and kinda rainbowish if you are looking from an angle at the whole thing.

My iphone had this strange colored pattern on it yesterday too. It looked so strange I put down the bong and just stared at it for a good 5 minutes.

I looked at your bong with one eye, it was blue. The other eye yellow. No joke.

Probably unrelated, but 1st gen. iPhones have a cooler, bluish tint while 3Gs had a warmer, yellowish tint.

I heard Apple did this on purpose, but then switched back to the cooler tint in more recent firmware.

It's a software thing, not specific to the screen hardware.

Are you running different firmware in each eyeball?

Dude... taking Viagra?

From what I understand, it can cause some blue/yellow colour issues... which is why, if I'm not mistaken, pilots can't take it.

Don't spill bongwater on your iphone.........it'll void your warranty
