I have sent a total of 7 units back and ended up keeping 3 (one as a favor for someone who needed one as a present... long story), so I have seen 10 screens so far, one was dead on arrival, so I should say 9. There are serious differences between the intensity of the colors, but none of them are just off-white- they all have pink-green blobs on them.
I kept the ones with the faintest color hues, and that were almost perfect otherwise (one has "only" two black spots, one has "only" one hole in the screen with the light portruding through, and one is mostly pink with only a bit of green, so at least it is somewhat uniform - that one is not for me, so I hope that it will be well received despite the pink). I have very good eye sight and very good color perception, and that's what is working against me in this case, but I did find units that I can live with, after repeated replacements. I love everything else about the PW, so returning them for a refund was out of the question for me, therefore I am willing to live with the small defects.
What the article should have mentioned are also the other defects, and I have seen them on almost every screen: holes in the screen, dust specks/white smudges/white artifacts/black artifacts underneath the screen, bright light strip on the left (they seem to have fixed this issue, as only then first ones had it).
Still, the rest of the PW is great, so there are users who are willing to live with some of these defects, just not all of them on the same device.
