A few years back, I got a 24" LG Ultrawide monitor. Eventually downsized my desk setup and sold the monitor. Now that I have room for a desk and with WFH, I'm looking to clean up my setup and get an Ultrawide monitor again, preferably 34". In the last few years, it's hard to believe USB-C with...
Attached is an image comparing the screen size of the Late 2011 17-inch MacBook Pro A1297 to the 2021 16-inch MBP.
My 17” mostly works fine with an aftermarket SSD and OpenCore macOS Catalina but I can’t use FCPX on it because I had to disable the discreet Nvidia GPU.
To anyone who has waited...
I miss the iMacs of 2009-2011. Despite their high GPU failure rates they were easy to get in to and upgrade. Specifically upgrading hard drives with SSDs. It is not an impossible task with 2012-2020 iMacs, but its sort of a one-and-done thing. You can really only remove and replace the adhesive...
My Macbook Pro 2015 Retina Display (touchbar version) screen went black. I try to increase the brightness using the touchbar brightness control to no avail.
I also tried the slider in the Displays setting (I am able to access the computer by connecting it to an external monitor using a cable). I...
Firstly. I’m really fussy about screens. So I accept I’m being ott. But surely I can’t be the only one.
I’ve bought and returned like 8 iPhones of various models as there’s always some defect on the lcd screen.
Usually the colour consistency across the screen is poor - maybe one edge is more...
We've heard that new 2021 macs with MiniLED have terrible pixel response time and ghosting - video
I have Macbook Air M1 and Macbook pro 2020 i5. And Pro in comparison to Air also has terrible ghosting! I can definitely see it! Air seems to be the best in class somehow, super snappy!
For those...
I'm interested in getting the new Studio 27' Display. My work environment is pretty luminous and I hate reflections on the screen. I haven't seen this display in store yet, so I don't know if I should buy the version with the nano-texture glass or without it (especially considering there's a...
I own a MacBook Pro from 2017 which originally cost $3,000 direct from Apple. In October, the TSA was doing a random search of by bags during travel and stepped on my MacBook. Despite a clear footprint, they claimed they received it that way. In either case, the left-most 3" and bottom-most 2"...
There is something wrong happening close to the top-left screen bezel. The defect is getting worse as time goes by. See the picture attached.
Did anyone experience something similar? The MacBook is three months old. I have already asked for a replacement before (because of a defective keycap)...
Hi All,
I’ve had my iPhone 11 since I bought it new when it first came out in 2019. Only in the last 10 months, the screen has developed 4 large, deep ugly scratches – see photo. I can easily feel them with my finger nails. This has never happened before with any previous iPhone (other than the...
I just thought I would post here that I had success removing the anti-glare coating off of a mid 2014 mbp with horrendous staingate
The way I did it was with Flash All Purpose Cleaner floor cleaner.
This stuff works wonders and is very unlikely to scratch or damage the screen as it is purely...
A client of mine brought me a Macintosh Plus with complaints of screen distortion. Device boots fine but the screen flickers all over the place like crazy. I've popped it open and played with the pots to adjust the screen position and voltage but so far no significant improvement unless I lower...
Hello,
I finally received my first ever MacBook a day ago after three months of waiting. Unfortunately today I noticed a couple of these speckles on my screen, they look like airbubbles from a screen protector, but obviously I don't have anything on the screen.
Has anyone ever experienced. Would...
I was charging my Apple Pencil 2 with my Ipad Pro (11 inches 2018) and the magnetic charger just bent by itself cracking the screen. Since my Apple Care+ expired two weeks ago and the support center said there was nothing they could do. They didn't give me an explanation about what could have...
I've had my Macbook Air since 2020 after my last computer broke. It was great in the beginning, worked super fast and had no real issues with it. Now a year and a bit down the line it's starting to act up. Tad slower, overheating, etc. I've always made sure to use it on flat surfaces, so...
Hi, all!
I've got this mac around 2 years. Still in warranty cause I've got AppleCare+. Not long time ago I saw this little spots and though that they are on the screen, but when I tried to clean it.. they are inside screen. I called Apple and they gave me contacts of support from my city. But...
Hello, I have an iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (3rd generation) and over the past month and a half, I’ve started to notice an issue with the display on my iPad where about half the screen is dim and only the button part of the display is fully lite up and the sides of the iPad being the darkest.
Since...
Have run into this a couple of times and have yet to find an easy method.
Scene: Looking out my bedroom window and saw a Red Tailed Hawk sitting in the roof of the pool cabana. Whipped up my trusty 13PM, opened Camera, proceeded to take a few quick snaps. Found that AF focusses on the window...
Hi! I recently got this device. As always, I protect my devices very well. Before this computer, I have been using an Early 2015 MBP 13", and I had a screen protector/guard on its display. It served me very well for more than 5 years, and I had never a ghosting/staingate issue thanks to the...
