    On my PCs, I can change the colour tone (by adjusting the relative values of R, G, and B on either the monitor, or using the graphics card software). How do I do this on Android 11? My new phone looks a bit yellowy compared to my (cheaper!) old phone. I want more blue and less of the others.
     
    Samsung Galaxy A10. There is no "screen mode" on mine when I follow your instructions.
    Hmmmm well I'm not sure then. I also have an advanced settings and it has RGB settings that I can control as well.

    If it's not under display, than that's that. You cant control your screen color. You'll just have to either get used to that or get a different phone.

    That link says "From Settings, tap Display, and then tap Screen mode. Tap Vivid or Natural."

    I fail at "screen mode", that doesn't exist.

    This is a Samsung Galaxy A10 which came with Android 9 on it, and I upgraded it to 11.
    hmmmm well like i said if it is not there, then it does not have that option. not sure if there is an app for that can change screen color or not.

    On my s21 you have to select "Vivid" to get the extra controls that @ocnbrze describes. Which to my mind is self-defeating since "vivid" is horribly over-saturated and unnatural (at least to my eyes), and the white balance controls don't fix that. But give it a try, because maybe you will find it better, and it's simple to turn off if not.
