I have a problem with iPad Pro 12.9 I generation, in which the screen starts to flicker. This happens mostly during the process of restoring settings, uploading a backup and during the installation of a large number of applications in a fairly short time. The iPad is heavily loaded and starts to get warm. The flickering is most clearly seen on a white and grey background, it looks like a fast pulsing of the screen, small shifts and instant brightening and dimming of its parts. Sometimes you can also see it in white fonts on a black background. Sometimes the screen freezes for a moment, stops responding to touch, and at the same time you can see a few 2-3 cm stains slightly tinted grey. After pressing the home button the screen becomes responsive again. Resetting the tablet does not help, the screen starts to flicker again on the language selection menu. During normal tablet use, it appears sporadically, usually when the processor is fully loaded, for example when browsing cities in 3D on Apple maps. Can it be fixed somehow?

I would contact Apple support and ask them if its a hardware issue or not. If it is a hardware issue, they'll likely send you a replacement device.
