Choppy flickering video - iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

The flickering started as soon as I got my new phone. I updated to IOS15. I’ve done all the steps including turning off auto brightness and nothing has worked. I literally cannot watch videos in messenger and other apps on a brand new flagship IPhone 13 Pro Max. $2000+ wasted.


I should have stayed with my XS.


what is being done about this Apple? This has been going on for months according to the other complaints on this forum.


IOS 15 did not fix the problem.

Same here. Flickering is occurring while I use keyboard, with video playback, and in Apple Music when playing a song after a search. Example: a search for “Drake” generates a result of songs by that artist. When you select a song to play it, all album art in results flicker. Very annoying, especially after spending over $1200 on a new iPhone 13 Pro Max. This needs to be fixed immediately! Running IOS 15.0.1.

Yeah my IPhone 13 Pro Max has the whole dimming dark a few times a day. My auto brightness is off and I also have True Tone off. And the other irritating issue I’ve had is when you scroll up or down content on the phone the screen almost hemeradges :(. It goes all choppy and flickering rapidly. Went to Apple store and they said it’s the “way” I’m using my phone. Wtf! I dumped a perfectly working IPhone 12 Pro Max and upgraded to this.
