Are Retina MacBook Pro's screens fixed now?

[thomj]

How do we know what kind of screen we have on our computers?

Defective design and/or high probability of out-of-spec manufacturing leading to 7 replacement LG screens in a row which repeatably demonstrates IR straight-out-of-the-box.

More likely explanation is that you do not know what you are looking for with Image Retention.

Explain to me what you mean by "Image retention."

Explain to me what you mean by "Image retention."

1. Open mail.
2. Start a timer for 5 minutes.
3. Wait until timer expires.
4. Minimize mail.
5. Observe that you can read your email previews in the default galaxy wallpaper.

Do this for 7-round trips to your local Apple store (over $100 in gas!) before you get the senior store manager to grab you a laptop with a Samsung display.

Wanting to place a order for a MacBook Pro 15 inch retina but wondering if it's a safe buy with all the screen issues people are talking about.

I would wait until November-December if you can...I believe apple should have everything sorted out by then...since they are making the tweaks for the 15 RMBP..Just my guess...

Oh come on guys!
I own a rMBP with LG screen and it's got a little bit retention after I took the test. But what's the point, always use screensaver after 5 mins and display sleep after 10 mins. Then you will forget the term retention.

Don't be so happy! Go buy yourself a magnifying lens and search for a dead pixel, so that you will always stare at it for the remainder of your MacBook's life - despite the pixel being smaller than any of the gazillion dust particles on your screen.
