Got this MPB 14” M1 Pro just last week. Not sure how to explain this, however i can see this marks or don’t know if this is a gap between the display glass & frame.
Anyone else noticed the same on yours?

I think Ive seen similar questions here in the past and general idea was that its some sort of leftover from factory of display coating which some people suggested comes off easy with cleaning.
But try to search these forums to be sure 100%.

Be VERY careful trying to clean it off. The anti-reflective coating is extremely easily marked or micro-scratched. Do not use ANY cleaners (soaps, detergents, solvents, alcohol, etc.)

You were right. It was some sort of stain. I managed to clean that off. Thanks for your time & sharing your feedback

Thank you! Yes I read that while researching. I somehow managed to clean that off. Had to use a lil amount of alcohol as it was not coming off with a microfiber cloth. Was really worried if my cleaning would leave a scratch & make it worse, but I was lucky this time
