M1 Macbook Air Gray Vertical Line And Flickering Screen

Hi, has anyone with M1 Macbook Air experienced having intermittent gray vertical line on the screen when opening it after hours of being in sleep mode? The screen flickers and it disappears.

You will be hard pressed to find another reader with the same display issue as yours. I recommend that you have your M1 MacBook Air examined at the Apple Store or at an Authroized Service Center and take advantage of the Apple 1YR Warranty which should still be active on your MacBook Air.

I have the same error and I've only had the MacBook Air for a few days, what did they tell you at the service center?

Mine is for LCD/Display replacement. I suggest that you contact Apple Support first because they will try to assess if it is a software issue first.
