Welcome to the forum!

There are no adjustments, so you could have a defective tab. It should not have much difference between any other tablet from what I have seen.

Actually, I bought my 300 yesterday and the first thing I noticed after using it for 10 minutes was exactly what you stated. I also own a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and comparing the Tab with the 300, the Galaxy Tab's have richer colors compared to the 300. The 300 almost have this color that you would get when you put a poster in the window for 12 months and the color fades because of the sun on it for all the time. It's almost like that.

THis is the reason why I bought and returned 2 TF300.
Color contrast sucks big time. There is no way to fix this.

Worked fine on my TF101 to make colors brighter. Both are free, have fun
Yes, it's compatible with the 300

I tried both of these (before returning the 300), they do not work on tf 300, they actually make it worse.

Sorry to hear, hope you find a more suitable device. They worked great for my tf101 and my mate's tf300t with some extensive tweaking, we did mod some systemUI though.

I too think the TF300's screen is a bit colourless so I asked Asus - and got this stock reply:

Thanks for contacting ASUS Technical Support.

The screen has been tuned for optimal performance both through a battery life and viewability. Screen brightness is the only tuinable part of the screen.

There are some apps available on the Play Store that will allow some further tuning but we could not endorse any in particular.

I did find that cranking up the brightness does help a little, but doing that hits the battery life.
