2017 macbook pro stage light effect
So a few weeks ago, I noticed some dark spots at the bottom of my 2017 MBP. I wasn't sure if it was me, or if it had always been there of if it was a problem. After a little googling and talking to Apple. My computer is suffering from the Stage Lighting Effect. Of course my machine is out of warranty and after chatting with Apple, I am told , in order to get this fixed. I will have to deposit $800 up front. Some of which would be deposited if the problem is cheaper to fix. This was a bit annoying. Yes, my Mac is out of warranty, but this is a known design flaw. The cable connecting the monitor to the mother board is too short and wears out over time. But after 3 years? Personally, I feel that APPLE should cover this. Especially since we pay a premium for these computers. I have been an Apple user for over 15 years now. I am very disappointed with the handling of this issue.
