Hi! I just noticed yesterday that when I boot my macbook pro 2016 15", the screen blinks and some colors of the background change a bit. It happens in that loading after the password input. At the same time of the blink the touchbar also turns on (it is off until it blinks). After the boot, it is working perfectly with no blinks. I tried to change resolution but it didn't affect it.
I just wanted to know if this blink is normal because I only noticed it yesterday.
Thanks

Nope - not normal. I think the 2016s have had some issues with the hibernate file - I was previously having issues with mine being slow to allow me to enter my password and randomly restarting while I had the lid closed. I reinstalled macOS and so far no issues.
 
hmm, ok. I have file vault and I read people saying they had similar issues because of it. I can try to reinstall macOS and maybe turn off file vault to see what happens but at this moment I have no time to do it. Thanks
