These differences are probably due to variation in hardware components. For example Nokia had several suppliers for N9 AMOLED panels. I have one N9 with a screen that has warmer whitebalance (slighly reddish/yellowish) compared to another that has it's white balance spot on and is brighter overall. Both phones have the same firmware, but screens are clearly different.

Latter parts of IMEI numbers on the phones are:
2354235, N9 16GB, cyan (reddish tint)
5093798, N9 16GB, cyan (good white balance)
