Hello all. I'm going to get this phone from Saudi Arabia, and I wonder from what revision there is no more yellow problem? It is 12w15 or? Thank you in advance.

Should we now just say that the yellow tint issue is totally random and close all the discussions?

Looking through the thread, it seems like the problem has not been sorted out and occure randomly, unless you can buy locally (not online purchase), just stay away from this phone.

Yes, I saw that problem is random for now. So if I got yellow tint, I can not take it to repair in my country because I bought it in another country. Is there any international warranty? Thanks for replay

Thats what i'm saying, if you have to send the phone for exchange, it's a problem.

sony operation is regional, so if you get one from hong kong, other countries will not honor the warranty, and same with other countries.

Chances are they will repair it if they have parts. My handset was at the service centre for 4 weeks awaiting component before Sony gave in and sent me a replacement.
