Should I contact Flipkart/BenQ?

Got a new BenQ GW2480. I feel the display is bluer than the one I already use (GW2480L). Even before I compare, it was obvious. I tried different preset modes, reset colour and all, it's still bluer than the old one. Set the same settings in both the monitor, and still I find difference. Should I contact Flipkart/BenQ? Attaching some images, this is the best images I got. Click the attachments for full resolution.

Left is old one GW2480L vs right is new one GW2480.
Settings are same for both the monitors.

Same models can have slightly different colour calibration. For exact colours in both, you need to colour calibrate both of them using a device like SpiderX Pro.
So I am good, no need to worry about the difference, right?
No, I can't afford calibration tool :) My friend is running a studio, I don't think even he has one.

Other than slightly different colours, check if all else is fine. If it is, then no issues. Check for excessive backlight bleed, dead pixels, etc.

You can manually try to make the colours close to each other, but they won't be same.

Yeah I tried to match the colours, but I couldn't.
Will try reinstalling GPU drivers, window calibration tool etc and see anything brings the colour tone closer if not same.

Reinstalled (clean using DDU) graphic driver, reset both the monitors again, tried differenet settings/modes etc and kinda settled, though the colours/brightness/contrast are not same. Already I feel like I am kinda getting used to the difference, I guess I wouldn't notice it unless I am looking for it.

I use 2 different monitors, difference in colours nagged me initially as well but I got used to it. It has been almost a year now.
