Nausea dizziness

I am seriously concerned that my phone is making me sick. There is more to this but I’m so afraid to not be taken seriously I deleted it all.

I also wrote because i clicked to respond to another persons issue but hers was expired or something.

I am very serious.

Your taking your time here to share your story with us will not in any way get to the management at Apple, they aren't here. And encouraging others to post here won't help. You have to go here -> https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html


Since this is worse for you when scrolling you might want to try the Reduce Motion setting and see if that helps. If it doesn't your only recourse as far as phones is to buy one that does not have an OLED screen. This is not an Apple thing, if you buy an LG phone with an OLED screen you will have the same issue. In fact Samsung makes some of the iPhone OLED screens. And I strongly encourage you to quickly take your Mini to a visit with your doctor as this, and problems with 3D movies/glasses, can be a symptom of certain diseases.


The good new is that computer technology is moving towards miniLED for screens which may not trigger whatever is causing this. But make sure you try the screen before you buy it, hopefully by that time we will be out of the pandemic and you can do that.

Your not crazy. I phone 12 pro literally made me physically ill. When looking stto he screen my jaw would start to hurt and my shoulders felt like I pulled a muscles or something. It also felt like (this is going to sound really weird) fluid was tuning down my spine from the neck. It was the most uncomfortable feeling I’ve ever felt in my life. As if my body sounded an alarm and was put in def con 4. I returned it. The upgrades Apple put into the OLED screens suck. Samsung oled screens do not make me feel this way.

OMG! Finally someone else. I just received my iPhone 13 Pro Max 256G from Apple today. Pre-ordered the day they came out. I am a business owner and very tech-savvy and have been a web designer since the nineties. I turned it on and switched from Chinese to English and connected it to my WiFi, and setting up my password.


All of a sudden this powerful wave came over me. I am falling out of my chair with dizziness, nausea, ears ringing, and the feeling of waves running through my head and brain, like I was being electrocuted. My head felt like it would explode. I thought I was experiencing a brain aneurysm or stroke! My heart went into super tachycardia. I had a stroke in my late 20s and something similar here but this was worse.


Needless to say, I did not proceed with transferring my info from iPhone 7 plus to iPhone 13 Max Pro.


I turned it off and put it in another room, to try it tomorrow again. Included in the instructions, the lithium batteries are included in the phone, and there are tons of warnings not on my other phone but this one regarding the hi-frequencies, powerful new camera warnings, medical warnings, and disclosures you must sign.


I have two iPhones, a wireless printer, two laptops, an iPad pro, an iPad air, Kindle 10, a router, and have on a FitBit watch all in the same room in my office. This is the worst experience ever.


I just called Apple and there have been other complaints filed. I decided to return it which cost me close to $1600.00 counting the Apple tech support care. I am waiting for a confirmation and return label from Apple. Please if anyone is experiencing the same, please call to report it as a known issue.


This is a serious issue and starting 8/26/21 I started having issues with iPhone 7 plus because it is 4 G and experiencing problems since I am in a 5G area. I was so excited to get this, but now, I have no other choice than to have a landline installed and go get a burner phone to use when out of my home office.


I feel like I am going back 20 years in time!


I am curious to see what others will say about this iPhone 13 Pro Max. I am not going to risk going through this daily.

Take care of yourself and keep me updated. Your health is more important than a phone.
