"Now the other news: I've noticed the slight yellowing in the top half of the screen. Yuck! However, if I turn the device upside down the yellowing seems to decrease down to just the top two lines of print. And if I leave it in bright sunshine for as little as 10 seconds, the yellowing disappears. What's up with that????"
....
Some look different in varying situations. Turn it landscape and it is even more easily seen - like looking a two toned painting. Mine persisted no matter which position - upside down, landscape, upside right, laying flat. I never got around to testing it outside, since I rarely read outside anymore - not fond of slathering on sunscreen.

ETA - I tried various things - auto bright on/off, night reading on/off, factory resets, restarts, etc. No change.

Does the yellowing come back after leaving it in sunshine? And after how long - immediately upon leaving sunny area?
