Moto g 4 plus: screen is much yellowish (warm)

I've started using this phone yesterday. There seems to be a yellowish tint on the screen. Also, the brightness fluctuates at times while browsing. The Screen in its entirety has a warm color to it. The whites don't appear truly white, they have a yellowish tint to them.
Anyone facing similar issues/ knows how to resolve them?

Go to settings, then display and then change the color mode to Vibrant. It serves its purpose in Moto G4 Plus! If your yellowish tint is still not gone, then it must be the screen guard which you might have applied. Always go for Tempered Glass protector or even the Glossy to get that pure vibrant experience on the phone. Never go for Matte as it makes the view dull and pale. Good luck!

Dude, yellowish tint on LCD displays is not exclusive for a Moto G4 line. It´s a manufacturing process and could came yellowish or blue tint on it...
If you want a non yellowish display, go for amoled display phones and u be safe.
If you don´t like yellow tint, try to call a replacement, and maybe, next time u get a non yellow tint display...
Or try to use an app called screen adjuster free avaiable for free on playstore. With the app, u can adjust colors on display at your own taste...

thank you for the tips! I have reviewed and agree with you : the amoled displays are sharper !
I have researched this problem and the amount of posts and videos on youtube about this issue is amazing !!
I installed the recommended program for you but did not get a good fit. I'll keep trying !!

Below I share one video found on youtube about the problem:

Yellow Screen Tint

I've my XT1572 purchased in July, 2016. I notice a yellowish tint on screen. However, my other friend who has XT1572 too doesn't has any yellow tint and the whites look truely white instead of any other color's tint. So is my display defective? Is there anyone else who is having the same issue? My phone as well as his phone isn't rooted nor any modifications are done to any. I've started this thread because most of the threads on yellowish screen tint in Moto X Style are from countries other than India. So if any Indian XT1572 user has faced the same issue, please help with the same.

I had it... But i replaced my device.. Now it's bright and beautiful.. There's no solution for it. You can either replace the handset ( if possible ) or can change the display from service center

My replacement period is already gone. So changing the display would do I guess. Do you have any idea how long it could take to change the display?

It depends on your location. Go and check

My screen felt slightly yellow too from what I was used to on a Oneplus one. So I installed frankenkernel and KCAL color control, now my display has pure whites and colors almost look like an amoled screen.
But if its super yellow and you think its a hardware issue and not calibration you should exchange it.

Good to know that. I checked it with another MXPE and a OnePlus Two, both had pure white, mine instantly looked yellow on bring the devices close to each other for comparison. Also my XPE has a bit of screen bleeding on left side beezel.

If you're rooted and have a custom kernel.. set screen config for red green blue down a little

Use colour filter app and set black overlay to 10 %

This is not an issue bud. Your screen isn't defective at all. This is the limitation of ips panel. Some/very few users who aren't able to notice(including me) might have not good eyes like ur's
So don't panic. Just relax and enjoy this device

It's is not a issue with the device.It is some kind of sensors for Moto display.Turn Moto display off and it vanishes.This issue has been raised in one of the forums in lenovo , to which they replied that it is a sensor and not a display defect.So chill!

The horizontal lines are available in each and every device. The one who tells that they haven't noticed it, they might have not seen it properly. To see it you have to revise your geometry and have to see it at different angle under sunlight with hawk eyes.

I have noticed this on my G5 plus and it is normal (as in it doesn't hamper the functionality or doesn't imply malfunction).
See the photo
They are the touch sensor patterns. However, I also came across another G5 plus(one of my friend's) which has a different patterns (grids instead of horizontal lines) and they are barely visible even in bright outdoors.
The kind of sensor pattern you're talking about(only horizontal lines) are however, have more visibility, which kind of disappointing, and are hard to be unnoticed once you see them . So, there are two types of displays on G5 plus, and those who have the grid sensor patterns are the lucky few.

Thank you all for your kind reply.

I have the same issue... I dont like it but i want to keep the phone... Don't know if i want to return it beacause of this.

I was concerned about the horizontal faint white lines in my display. Thanks @williamj949 for explaining it's part of Moto Display. Confirmed that they go away if you turn it off. Good to know the display isn't faulty.

It's the digitizer's (touch sensing layer beneath the glass) grid.
Actually its been awhile since I've seen it on a phone (last one I saw was on Nexus 5s), guessing it's just the side effect of buying a medium-tier priced phone.
I'm. totally cool with it though, you don't notice it after a while.

It has nothing to do with Moto display, it will still be visible as it's a hardware thing
