No it's not. This is an issue with a ton of the phones so far.

Ok, you're right, I've clearly never used that particular Zagg screen protector before and seen that exact thing on my iPhones 5, 6 Plus, 6s Plus, or 6s.
Are you guys comparing to your old 6s plus or just looking at your new 7 plus? It wouldn't be noticeable without comparing side by side.
Wow, that's pretty bad.9:13 very clear to see (IMOP). I don't like it.

I'm a little surprised it hasn't been mentioned in this thread, that you can fully change the temp/hue, in Accessibility with iOS10. It's even more impressive with the wide color gamut in the 7's.
Accessibility > Display Accommodations > Color Filters. You can fully customize the temperature.
I played with a 7 a few days ago that had a "warm" display, and I was able to get it as "cool" as the Note 5 I had for reference. Identical. And the Note 5 has what would be considered a cool display.
So, before anyone returns their 7... definitely try out the new color control. I think a lot of people are unaware of this. You don't have to stick with the warmer default
Edit: I see badmojo69 mentioned accessibility white balance above... but I just wanted to make sure people know you have much more control than you may think, over hue/temp.
I still have the 6S Plus as a spare, and I compared the two side by side and the 7 Plus is definitely a bit different in terms of the white level of the screen. I noticed it almost immediately upon setting up the phone, but it doesn't detract from the device honestly for me, as I usually keep my brightness slightly dimmed anyways so it makes a bit less noticeable (for me anyways).
I'd really like to see some color settings eventually added to the iPhone, especially because they want this to be such a major media device (for watching things and playing games), but there are quite a few things they need to address before that.
