In the past few days, many iPhone 12 users have reported several issues with the display. And in a document recently shared by MacRumors, Apple is aware of the issue that occurred with several iPhone 12 screens. The listed issues include flicker, gray or green light, or other undesirable light variations under certain conditions.
The document, which was shared with Apple's Authorized Service Providers, reveals that Apple has acknowledged the issue reported by many users and it is currently investigating the matter. Apple also recommends technicians that, for now, they need to avoid servicing affected iPhones and they should instead notify customers to update their iPhone to the latest iOS version. This guide shows that Apple seems confident that it is able to fix the problem through a software update.
That is totally possible as Apple was able to fix the same green tinted display issue that happened on the iPhone 11, 11 Pro, and 11 Pro Max models via the iOS 13.6.1 update. However, this is the first time they've been reported on the iPhone 12 models since their launch.
Based on user reports, the display issue appears to be occurring when the screen brightness is set to below 90%. Many of those users are having issues on iOS 14.1, iOS 14.2, and apparently even the first iOS 14.3 beta. The glowing or flickering isn’t always there as they may disappear after a short while for some customers.
iPhone 12 price: around Rs. 73,400
