A1708/EMC 3164 — Released June 2017, this entry-level MacBook Pro retains its traditional function keys (as opposed to the OLED Touch Bar).

MacBook Pro A1708 screen problem

My MacBook Pro A1708 after start up shows stripes on picture at the upper section of screen. Progressively you can see more of this from upwards to downwards while the picture becomes clear from upwards to downwards. It takes 8-10 minutes and at the end there is a clear screen without any distortion until next start up. Please help! Any idea?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
