    iPhone 14/Plus Any 14 or 14 Plus users with OLED screen "wrinkles"?

    I just bought a 14 Plus to see if the weight savings made a difference for in-hand comfort compared to the 14PM (it definitely does for me.) However, I noticed that there is a small wrinkle in the OLED panel, under the glass, that doesn't look right. At first I thought it was something on the...

    Display sometimes works. Backlight works but no image. Pushing on keyboard frame makes it work. Video included.

    The display on this M1 Macbook Air boots to a backlit screen with no image. When I push around the top of the laptop near the hinges the image appears. I've opened the laptop and checked the display cable and the main data cable and there are no issues. Here is a video of the problem...

    iPhone 13 mini True tone turns screen yellowish?

    Hello, just got an iphone 13 mini and compared it an old SE. At first glance I noticed the SE was much brighter and also white was white, while the 13 mini had a yellow tint. After some googling I found out about turning True Tone off in the brightness settings, which improves whites a lot on...

    Anyone else have their screen randomly flicker on the new 16" MBP?

    I've had my 16" MBP M2 Max 96GB RAM / 8TB drive for about a month. Yes, I maxed the ever-lovin' crap out of it because it's my first new Mac since 2005. :p The screen will occasionally and seemingly randomly flicker. It doesn't seem to do this consistently enough to tell what is causing it. I...

    Is it safe to sometimes put my MacBook Air M2 down on the screen/lid?

    Hey guys, so I just got a new MacBook Air M2 and a pretty solid sleeve for it to carry around. The thing is I'm a student, so I move my laptop quite a lot during the day, and since it's in the sleeve, sometimes I don't necessarily put it down on surfaces normally (I hope it makes sense lol)...

    Cracked bezel (chin bar) and vertical line through screen MacBook Pro 13in 2017

    About a month ago I accidentally cracked the bezel on my MB Pro. I decided to put black electricians tape over the crack so that it wouldn't grow and to keep dust and irritants from possibly entering. At first it was mostly a cosmetic issue but after about a week or two thin vertical lines...

    iPhone SE (2020) Will having/using my iPhone near beads or jewelry made with beads and metal craft wire (like rings, necklaces, etc) crack or scratch my iPhone screen?

    Will having/using my iPhone near beads or jewelry made with beads and metal craft wire (like rings, necklaces, etc) crack or scratch my iPhone screen just from being near them? Especially if a bead fell on the screen. I have a glass screen protector.

    iPhone 14 Pro Max Horizontal Lines Across Screen When Phone Wakes Up

    Hi there, I got brand new iPhone and I noticed that when the phone wakes up, horizontal lines flash on the screen. It doesn't happen everytime, just randomly. But (I feel) it occurs more often when your screen turns off itself (by time limit (after inacitivity)). I don't remember I saw those...

    Display management still a disaster in Ventura

    I can't believe that the company that has some of the best hardware and software engineers in the world, still can't figure out display management in macOS. Plainly, it's a nightmare. It was a nightmare in Monterey, and after doing a complete wipe and fresh install of Ventura in my Mac Studio...

    Are M1 14" and 16" same on colors representation?

    I was comparing several 14” vs 16” in stores yesterday. It looked to me that MBP 14” shows more somewhat blueish picture compared to 16" and others. I double-checked to compare color profiles, true tone and night shift settings to make sure they are identical, comparing two laptops one near...

    Remove glossy screen layer from A1211 (MBP 2006) - possible?

    I recently came across my old A1211 MacBook Pro and brought it back to life with a SSD I had lying around. This one has the glossy screen option but it appears as though the glossy layer has started to separate from the screen itself or something like that. There appears to be a large amount of...

    Wiping data from a 2011 iMac with broken display.

    Hello all, My iMac (2011 i think) seems to have all but died. A few seconds after switching on, the screen goes white and striped, and it keeps rebooting itself. Too old to risk money on a repair, I feel. I would like to dispose of it, or give it away if someone can make use of it, but need to...

    Other Ceramic shield glass scratching [MERGED]

    After one year my iPhone 13 Pro is more scratched than my iPhone X of four years. And I use my phone *less* than I used to. I hate that Apple has sacrificed the scratch resistance of the phone for shatter resistance. I haven't dropped my phone on a hard surface in 10 years. Scratches, however...

    Hi. Hope this is the correct forum. My iPhone X fell today. The display is (almost) dead (some green display upper right side still visisble). I can enter the password blindly, which I used to access the iPhone X via MacBook and make a backup. Haptics work as well. Basically it seems to be...
