Hi guys,

Not sure if this is common or if anyone experienced , but my MBP 13 just deloveped a strange vertical thin band on the screen. I've noticed this while watching some vids on YT . Tried to restart it but it's still coming up. It's not permanent but very annoying. I've noticed this in the dark so not sure how this would appear on dailight but still.

What do you think , is it a warranty case or should I still check other stuff around ?

Attached you can have some pictures that I've taken with my phone. I belive it's quite visible.

Before you send it to Apple for warranty repair, make sure you take very good (time & date stamped) pictures of the Mac showing the condition of the top, bottom, sides, and screen. Make sure Apple assess' the physical condition in writing (which is part of their protocol).

It's in perfect condition, I've always used a sleeve for it so not a single scratch, yet any physical damage. The only thing is I've bought it abroad in Europe from another company and also I'm quite far from an apple store where I can drop it. Exactly the hassle that I was not looking for :(

Check your options in your country. The danish version of:

I am sure you will also find it by searching for Apple repair in your own language.
