Seeing dark shadows creeping along the bottom edge of your MacBook Pro screen? You're not alone! This common issue, often referred to as "screen shadowing," can be frustrating. So, what's causing it and what can you do?
Often, these shadows are due to pressure on the LCD panel. It could be from accidental impacts, consistent pressure during transport, or even the screen being held closed too tightly. The glue or adhesive holding the screen layers together can also degrade over time, leading to this shadowing effect.
While sometimes the shadowing is minor and unnoticeable during regular use, it can worsen. Unfortunately, there's no guaranteed DIY fix. Gently cleaning the screen might help remove surface smudges that accentuate the problem, but often, a screen replacement is the only permanent solution.
Before you panic, check your warranty or AppleCare coverage. If you're covered, Apple will likely replace the screen. If not, consider getting a quote from a reputable third-party repair shop specializing in MacBook Pro screen repairs. Don't live in the shadows – get your screen back to its best!
