Screen flickering (MacBook Pro 2019 13" 256GB, 2 thunderbolt) black/white boxes

I went to the local Apple Store where I bought my device and they switched my mac book pro for a brand new one that seems to be working properly, no black/white boxes so far. Also the battery of this new mac book seems to be a lot better. I think I had a defective device.

From what they said to me, if you have the box and you are not satisfied with your product then you can ask for a new one (or other model if pay the difference) before 40 days of your purchase. Try to go to an apple store next to you with the box/cable/charger and, of course, your receipt to try to replace for a new one...

Hope this helps,

I'm a game developer as well, so I'm using Unity, VSCode and Google Chrome mostly of my time. This issue is pretty easy to reproduce using Unity. If you drag to resize any Unity view then you can see the black/white boxes in the game, scene and hierarchy view.

I think you should go back to your local official support center and explain that the problem was not fixed.

Hm, interesting. Thanks for the link, I also found this other thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/macbookpro/comments/cuy16x/2019_13_macbook_pro_screen_flickering_main_thread/?utm_source=amp&utm_medium=&utm_content=post_body

It seems to be a software issue, but I didn't experienced this with my new machine, yet.

Hi I'm having the exactly same problem. I also have a MacBook Pro 2019 13" 256GB with 2 thunderbolt. Did you find a solution?

Good to hear that you fixed the problem. Yeah, it seems to be a GPU problem.

I have a brand new one (less than a week), so I'll see what can be done.

Thank you very much for the answer.
