The 11/2 update fixed the tint and flickering issue for me.. glad I gave it another chance buying the SP4 and installing the update. The funny thing is when I did the update once the display driver still showed the old version and of course the tint issue remained. But doing the update again fixed it.
surface pro 4 screen has a pink tint or color changes when scrolling
Hello all,
Does anyone have a solution to why when I scroll my screen goes from white to pink, I can't stop noticing it. I was watching you tube and when I scrolled down to read comments I could clearly see the pink fading in and out.

Microsoft just released a firmware update that has fixed the problem for me. See:
No more screen flickering or tint changing. The update should be titled System Firmware Update -11/2/2015.
MODERATOR EDIT (11/3/2015): I marked this as the answer - thanks for the confirmation Jacob! For those of you receiving "display adapter...stopped responding" errors on Surface Pro 4 please share here, a thread specific to that error...

The good news is the fix would be a software one, in that case.

FYI - I notice this issue as well when I drag windows across the screen.

Also, Microsoft said Hyper-V, if installed/enabled, is causing problems with screen flickering.
Hoping this is solved by the time my SP4 ships :)
