ah yes, if it's under white fluorescent lighting it should be blueish instead of yellowish tongue.gif i believe that's a valid concern

will test it out myself whenever maxis launches it haha

Are you suggesting it is a hardware flaw? I will definitely demand an exchange if it is!

no im not suggesting it's a hardware defect. juz software

u cannot compare with orangbulu's photos. the best way is to get another iphone 4 n take photos at the exact same conditions, same place, same time. emphasis on EXACT.

orangbulu blueish tint for flash is actually normal, even for DSLRs smile.gif it works like this. the flash colour output is white. if u take a photo in a very orange background, the camera will attempt to adjust the white balance to be a little bit cooler (more blueish to counter the orange). thus the orange background will look more natural, but the white flash will be blueish. that's why some photographers have coloured filters to change the flash output colour to better match the lighting. tricky right?

example, taken with a canon 350D SLR with built-in flash:
Attached Image
that photo is taken in a restaurant where the lights are all orange. it doesnt look orange in this photo because the camera tweaked the white balance, but the white flash became blue. an orange filter for the flash would fix this

it also goes the other way around. take a photo with flash in a blueish background, the camera will attempt to make it hotter (more orange to counter the blue) so that the blueish part looks more natural. but the white flash becomes an orange tint.

again, this doesnt happen every single time as modern cameras are pretty smart controlling the white balance. it just misjudges from time to time. my lumix LX3 had really bad white balance control before, but a simple firmware update solved the problem smile.gif

Hopefully a Software patch could fix this problem. When the htc hd2 ( windows mobile 6.5) was launched, all users complain about the pinkish tint in the centre on camera shots. A software patch was released about 2 months later and problem no longer. However in the hd2 it was very obvious as affected all users.

Yes. Obviously. It's a bluish hue in the middle. As for the "jaundiced skin" colourisation, the resulting image can be corrected by either going to manual (white balance) on your camera, and reducing the white balance setting until correct or playing around with the colours in an editing programme during post processing.

Mass recalling iPhone 4 that has been sold by Apple? Should I be saying yet another in before they providing us with iPhone 4 Case Programme for a temporary fixation? Maybe we are being paranoia or a bit strenuous about the white balance issues? I'm not propagandising here to inflict fear or to cause unwanted anxieties to others, I love the iPhone 4 as much as you do or the girl next door too. However, issues will remain issues lost in the shuffle of Apple's products.

A bad apple is a bad apple, nonetheless. I want to have a bite on a sweet, juicy and crunchy apple, at the very least.

Regards, Joey

thats the thing Joey, you have been harping about the negatives while not having an iPhone yourself, all you have are first hand account of disgruntled users whom have chosen to air their displeasure on the internet, a skewed medium that doenst not represent the majority. Those who have relatively little or no problems would not fill the internet with their positive accounts, and i can safely say these people are the majority users out there. Tell you what the next time we have a TT(Teh tarik) session or gathering, do not be shy and join us to experience the iPhone 4 yourself and judge it for its entirety or you could always PM bro String,Beavis, or Yuvanesh or our mod Tink for a meetup and test their sets to the hilt. Like you said a bad apple is a bad apple, even a bad bmw is a bad bmw too, as a consumer know your rights, send it in for a warranty request a DOA, or worse come to worse a refund for all its worth, there are just too many phones out there which may be better than the iPhone 4 lets not make the iPhone seem to be the last phone on the planet.

nah... most whiners prefer to just whine.

so far, we've had 2 meet up n play sessions for iPhone4 ... turnout is less than 100 ... where are all the 'oh-so-vocal' LYN members?

not free la, jauh la, bla bla bla ... then wait quietly for your local telco to launch, and you are free & nearby to go and test.

I've been blessed, got some friends who are willing to let me play with their iPhone4 for the whole day, so I am very very impressed with it.
