So how are you liking the True Tone option of the X thus far? Although I think it works well and makes reading in darker environments and outdoors better, I feel it makes the screen too yellow most of the time indoors day or night in average ambient lighting. I turned it off for now to enjoy the vividness of the screen and will see how I feel about it. What about you?

Re: True Tone Yay or Nay?

Definitely yay, in my opinion. I love how it works on both my iPad Pro and my iPhone 8.

I think it’s a great feature. Sometimes I use my 8 Plus then immediately look at my iPhone 7 and I feel that slight little pain behind my eyes when looking at the screen for a couple of seconds.

Nay. I turned it off. I used on my 8+ for a few weeks but like you said the yellow tint is a bit much. Night shift works fine for me in the evenings.

I don't use it. I turned it off on the 8 plus and thought it looked worse on the X due to the great screen.

Nay. I keep it disabled. Not sure I’m a huge fan. Disabled it in my iPad initially so never wanted to enable it on my phone. May try again in the future though.

Re: True Tone Yay or Nay?

Nay, turned tru tone off on my iPhone X. I love it only iPad Pro 9.7 but it is too warm on my iPhone X. I think it needs calibration for me. Also, the OLED display color shifts with changes in viewing angle to a cooler bluer color. With tru tone on I find holding the phone at a slight lean back gives me a tru white. So I wish there was a slider adjustment for tru tone to calibrate it akin to the one for Night shift.

You’ve convinced me to try to use the X with it off. I’m gonna see how it goes.

It definitely warms the screen up a bit, but I like it and I keep it toggled on. It makes the screen much easier to read, IMO.
