Grey/blueish tint on S20+ screen

Hi guys, switched from s8+ to s20+. I noticed in some Instagram photos the s8+ has a lot more vibrant and saturated (more typical Samsung) images. I tested it out side by side, and the s8+ has a much whiter white color. Also tested side by side with a friend's iPhone. S20+ has a greyish blue tint to it. Same color temperature settings as s8+. Is this normal? Or do I have a defective screen?

The only thing I can think of is make sure blue light filter is off and display is vibrant. I have a plus as well and haven't observed this issue.

I've had the same experience compared to my S9. I think it's the way the screen is calibrated, but would love some more feedback on this.

For now I turned the white balance to the coolest possible, plus in the advanced settings I turned red and green to zero, leaving blue on max. This way the whites seem actually white.

If you want more whiteness head over to Screen mode and change the white balance to the colder side.
