iPhone 13 Pro Max. Only five months old.

Yesterday the screen started intermittently flashing or going bright plain white or pinkish when using apps. This isn't what I would describe as flickering, which I see many others complain about. More one bright flash every so often, and now more frequently, the screen just goes totally blank, but really bright white, or with a pinkish tint. Have to restart to get normal screen again.

Tried turning off all apps and doing a soft reset to no avail. Any other suggestions please? Nearest Apple store is an hours flight away.

If rebooting doesn't fix it, I doubt rebooting twice will help.. Plus I doubt it's a ram issue considering the 13 Pro Max has 6gb of ram..

I would try to restore your phone using iTunes/Finder to see if it helps if not you'll need to take it to an Apple store to be diagnosed and possibly replaced..
