This is how the screen on my T23 was the last couple of months before
it finally croaked. In the end, it was uniformly tinted red, more
after I just powered it up, but it stayed some degree of red all the
way at the end. I didn't realize exactly how much until I got it
replaced.
If yours is still under warranty, I would suggest you find a good time
in your schedule to have it fixed before the warranty expires.
