iOS 16 Screen Flickering

I’ve bought an iPhone 13 on the day of official release of IOS 16. After activation I immediately installed it. A couple of days later I started to notice some flickering on the display. This small(but kinda annoying) blinkering screen especially noticeable at brightness lower 40% and in black pixels(night mode). I’ve heard that this problem is most common for users of AMOLED display iPhones(12, 13, 13 mini). We need to force this issue in order to Apple noticed it and fixed in the next update(in IOS 16.0.2 there is still flickering). Does anyone have such problem?

I updated my phone to ios 16.1. However, the screen still flashes white when on the main screen. Anyone else having the same problem?

Mine is not flickering, it flashes once in a while for a nano-second. Thanks will take your suggestion and try to backup and start fresh.

It is happening to me on 15.7, so it's not just 16...so annoying

Hey, I am facing the same issue. I bought 13 on 24th September and I immediately updated to 16 before transferring my old iPhone's data and when I start using, I noticed the flickering. It flickers intermediately at mid brightness level and while typing. Specially noticeable in dark mode. I went to the apple service center, and they did nothing just reinstalled the iOS and gave back to me, saying that the MRI Diagonostic test is passed and shows nothing and the flickering they were not able to notice. It feels they don't even want to. If the device was out of warranty, I am sure they would have noticed as they get some commission. Not sure, if this is some hardware specific issue particular with the display panel or some iOS glitch. It doesn't seem to me an iOS glitch because, if it would have been then there should have been much greater number of users who would have faced this issue. Apple should take care of their customer's concerns seriously. Can't say how much this flickering thing bothers while using the phone. Still no solution.
