Display Red tint issue on my Rog 2

I recently received the Rog 2 Indian unit, and while tinkering with the brightness I found something weird, that is if I set the brightness from 0-50% the dark grey Colors (like the ones used in google apps for dark mode, and the dark grey color used in the notification bar of the Rog if the system theme is set to dark)
The dark grey Colors at lower brightness (i.e from 0-50%) seems to be reddish.
Below I have attached two pics, take of the Rog 2.

The app used was inshorts (in its dark mode) the one with dark grey color is the real color of the app seen above 50% brightness and the other reddish tint is seen from 0% brightness.
P.s it's not the wallpaper or any specific app it happens with any wallpaper, any app which uses the dark grey color(like google photos, Goole play store dark etc.)  and it can be seen at lower brightness. The thing was very hard to click on camera but I still clicked it.

It's something similar to the S8 red tint and the pixel blue tint.
Yes, in the Rog telegram group I did find another person who has the same issue and hence it seems like a fault from Asus.
Also I tried reaching Asus but as usual they aren't replying.

Yes it is visible at 20 to 30 % but at 40 it gets reduced to some extent, this made me to never watch any movie at 0 to 30%,only thing I found better is setting the brightness to 30 to 40 % in a dark room and set the refresh rate to 60hz then the Grey's are a bit better and this is the only possible way to watch videos with less tint in dark room

Then it is your decision if you want to exchange your device and keep your fingers crossed for a good unit.
If it does not really affect you that much then just leave it.
is your exchange period over already ?
