M1 Macbook Air Gray Vertical Line And Flickering Screen

Hi, has anyone with M1 Macbook Air experienced having intermittent gray vertical line on the screen when opening it after hours of being in sleep mode? The screen flickers and it disappears.

Faint horizontal lines all over MacBook Air M1 screen I have purchased my MacBook Air M1 last year and there was no damage to the screen since I normally don't carry it with me. Today when I opened the lid I suddenly realised there are faint grey lines all over the screen. Lines are not visible in super black or white backgrounds. That being said, I see no lines when I am on apple logo screen. What should I do?

MacBook screen has vertical green lines, but only when there is something black on the screen. For the MacBook Air M1, I recently noticed vertical green lines running down my screen, but only when the screen is black. It doesn't appear for any other colour.

Vertical black line on MacBook Air M1 screen Hello, I bought my macbook Air M1 nearly 40 days back from today, yesterday while i was watching YouTube suddenly a black thin vertical line showed up on screen, i worried and restarted my macbook but still it's there on screen. I use my macbook very much less just 6 battery cycles done, i never used it very intensely there's not even a single scratch on Mac i handle it very carefully. What should I do please suggest me if anyone knows.

You will be hard pressed to find another reader with the same display issue as yours. I recommend that you have your M1 MacBook Air examined at the Apple Store or at an Authroized Service Center and take advantage of the Apple 1YR Warranty which should still be active on your MacBook Air.

I have the same error and I've only had the MacBook Air for a few days, what did they tell you at the service center?

Mine is for LCD/Display replacement. I suggest that you contact Apple Support first because they will try to assess if it is a software issue first.
