650 Yellow Screen

thymaster · 09-20-2010, 01:32 AM

When I got my 650, I notice the screen has a yellowish tinge colour to it and I ignored it because I thought it could be my bedroom lighting. Now, when I put my 350 and 650 side by side together the yellow becomes noticeable. The 350 definitely have a much whiter screen. This happens when it's on and when both devices are turned off, they have the same shade of white screen. Is this normal for all 650 or could mind be defective?

I didn't notice it on the sample ones at the SonyStyle store I went to, but I only spent about 20 minutes, in two 10-minute visits. I laid them side by side with my 300 and 600 and didn't notice any yellow tints, though.

I have been using for a few days heavily and don't see any yellow screen. Are you saying pale yellow? Full yellow? Yellowish? Could you post the photo of your Reader?
Thanks.

Can you take a photo of the two side by side to show the yellow you are seeing?
