Is my new Pokemon 20th Anniversary 3DS defective? It seems as if the top screen is yellower than my older normal 3DS XL. Or are they all this way now? Like the newer ones have a different color temperature/white point?

Thanks friends! Looking forward to meeting new people here!

Yeah, my New 3DS has a "more yellowed" screen too. You don't notice it until you compare to another 3DS. However it's not always obvious even then. I have 4 3DS's (well one 2DS) and the screens are all different.

You can;t really see much difference here, but in the flesh, the old 3DS is the brightests (despite the 2DS looking brighter). The New 3DS is the dimmest, and as you said, with a yellow tinge.

Thank you, so essentially, if i were to return mine for a new one, the new one would likely be yellower as well? I wouldn't really call it yellow? its more of a warmer color temp.
