To those who feel that their iPad is running too warm, I just wanna share my thoughts and a bit of my usage habits.

For brightness, I set it at about four-tenth of the brightness with auto brightness off. This way, the screen won't be too bright till it hurts your eyes (100% brightness is just plain crazy, IMHO), but bright enough not to strain your eyes.

I'm using a smart cover, and as I love to caress the silky smooth naked back of my iPad, I'm not using any extra cases.

In these settings, I've been using my iPad for hours on end, playing games, editing photos on iPhoto, reading books, surfing the net and even FaceTiming with my girl. And all the while my iPad did not run uncomfortably warm. Just lukewarm, not even as bad as my iPhone after a long phone call. Oddly enough, playing games did not make it even lukewarm, but reading does ...

I hope this helps. Enjoy your iPad. I know I'm enjoying mine immensely.

Btw, my screen is perfect~! So, I'm thanking all that's holy that my unit turns out perfect!

I envy your perfect screen. A zero-defect product from Apple should be the norm. A few of us are plainly unlucky here! cry.gif

What about your serial number? Looks like DYTH is the one to avoid.

A genuine case for 1 to 1 exchange, or are you going to just bear with it?

I got the exact same model, except black. I just turn on the screen for a glance, lazy to setup the device in the store. And I didn't even notice the two-tone until I start reading Flipboard in landscape. There's three column of text, the first being cool, second cool as well, third becomes yellow. Then I goes what the heck, lol. Then I start to examined the keyboard color, same thing. The top 1/3rd of the screen is yellowish, super annoying. It's like when a part of your body bleeds, you won't feel the pain until you look and realize it, then all hell break loose.

No idea about SenQ. As for Harvey Norman, they will need to justify on their own any exchange request since the store's receipt is stamped "No refund. No Exchange" -- but strangely also added "When Condition Applies" - probably reserving the right for exchange. As they don't have stock until next week, they told me to go the service route first.

Yours come with uneven yellow tint as well? So what do you change to, another DYTH also? By the way, if I bring to service center, will they exchange 1-to-1? Are they Apple's proxies following Apple's policies or independent companies that just happen to know how to fix stuff, not needing to answer to Apple?

How to tell of the yellow tint? I do notice that my right keyboard looks a little yellowish now. Or not...

Anyone got a sample on how it looks like?

The keyboard is a good indicator. To verify, try reading a book or magazine, the same spot will look yellowish no matter which way you rotate your iPad.

IMHO, no one can guarantee whether the yellow tint will disappear after some time. If it's too obvious and distracting, send it back to the Apple Service Centre. I don't think they will do any repairing on screen, most probably they will exchange a new one for you.

Refurbished also better than torturing screen. What I worry is that even the replacement unit is problematic, then I have to send it back again, going through the whole waste of time process. There's a guy on MacRumors saying that he exchanged 13 iPads to get a problem-free one, I'm not willing to do that, especially when it's Mid Valley (closest to me, but parking is a nightmare).
