I lost the OLED lottery with iPhone 15 Pro (alien.top)

I lost the OLED lottery with the iPhone 15 Pro. My screen has a yellowish tint, which I can solve by enabling Color Filter. The yellow tint also disappears when I tilt the screen at any angle. The problem is, this is a workaround, and I shouldn't have to do this in the first place. Should I return my phone? I'm pretty disappointed with Apple. I thought Apple, of all companies, would have strict QA and tight tolerances.

New iphones always look a little yellow as the resin that bonds the digitizer to the screen has not fully cured

Stupid this is downvoted, because it’s true. I own an Apple repair shop, and this is one of the most common things I have to explain.

I have a week old 15+. Compared to my XR, the difference is huge. How long do you recommend waiting?

With heavy use for a week and a half it should be evident if it’s fading away or not. If not I’d return it before the 2 week or 30 day return window, or get it replaced later under warranty.
