Hi

Today my Ipad Pro came from Apple Store.

Unpacked, start, and screen backlight was flickering fast all time.
When moving from page to page, flickering stopped, and then start again.
When put brightness to 0, flickering stop.
Flickering happened only on static screen.

Then screen went black, no pic at all.
Reset dont help.
:(

Take it in. They have stock at the Genius Bar that are made and shipped specifically as replacement. They do typically hold some sellable inventory too just in case there is an OBF.

Hi

Here is short video of flickering display. http://1drv.ms/1MZ8BOJ
Here in Finland is no Apple Store :(
TNT will pick broken Ipad, and later Apple send new one.

You should return it for a refund and buy another one instead of getting a replacement. That way you can start the return date again when you receive it.
