Yellow Screen of Death iPhone 13 Pro Max

lets get the ball rolling on this, if we can create a case then we all should. 430 people experiencing this is NOT a coincidence! apple knows what they're doing and choosing to ignore it and they are forcing us either to repair it for $500 or get a new phone. so please continue to badger and pest the apple support team until they can actually do something cuz until now all they're useless.

My warranty period has already run out and also No time for their BS . got it repaired by the jumper technique

screen is all good as of now. will update in future if everything is working fine.

anyway never going to buy an Apple product ever again. 👎

have to switch everything my ipad AirPods , The ecosystem is very good but what if it fails at your most critical situation.

I had the same problem with my iPhone 13 Pro Max and it was just out of warranty. The iPhone all of the suddenly turned yellowish green with horizontal lines across screen. I was just browsing on the phone normally when the problem occurred. I had never dropped the phone or any damage to it. The sensing and all the phone software were still okay. But no screen display.

This is a hardware manufacturing malfunction! There are many discussions of this defect on Apple Developer and other forums too. 

I feel truly disappointed at Apple Taipei 101 store and received very bad customer experience. The Taipei 101 store refused to do any inspection to find the cause of the issue. They knew there were many customers had the same issue, but just used out-of-warranty as an excuse to turn down customers. Quoted me NTD 10,700 to replace a new screen and tried to sell me Apple Care. This is outrageous!

I had the yellow screen come up on my phone, its under two years old and happened after I did the latest update. Apple is refusing to fix it as its apparently been "tampered with" even though the only repair that's been done was a screen replacement that was completed through an Apple authorised store. I spoke to multiple people on the help line to figure out exactly what part of the phone has been tampered with and no one could answer that question and eventually someone said "maybe it's a screw" as if that's going to cause my screen to turn completely yellow..... ridiculous.

I had got a IPhone 15 Pro of them and not even a month later it done this to me, it’s a defect on most IPhones but not all of them. well that’s what they told me and I had to get my screen replaced. Free of charge as was in limited warranty anyways, it made me pay for AppleCare + now incase it happens again. seems to be a reoccurring thing

Mine started today iPhone 13 Pro Max, I noticed that when i watch videos, the screen will flicker then all of a sudden the screen goes yellow green. Touch is still working though as I can feel the vibration/haptic feedback with the gestures. The issue goes even more rampant when the device becomes hot. I have never dropped this phone ever. It’s about more than 2 years old (bought about a month after release). I can barely type this message as it’s more frequent now :(

I don’t know if this will be repaired without shelling out bucks as we don’t have genius bar or the official apple store here in the Philippines.

Sadly, I was laying down charging my phone. I was on the phone with my mom and then my iPhone started to violently glitch and then turned yellow. Thankfully, I traveled with my watch, but the phone would not allow me to restart it. It actually called the police and I had to communicate to them that my iPhone was glitching and called emergency services. I am out of town and now my iPhone does not work. My iPhone is my hotspot, communication with family and Apple Pay.

I changed my screen of iPhone 13pro last year May 2023. It was just completed warranty and it happened just after iOS update. Complaint to apple but after 1 month of follow up they informed that I have to pay for screen replacement and I did it. Yesterday suddenly again screen gone to yellow. It means the new replaced screen from apple is only lasted for a year and of course again warranty period completed now and again I have to pay. Pay the money is on one side but major worry is the TRUST on apple product. Trust on apple is now really on question. Once this yellow screen of death appear suddenly nothing can do and we are totally blind and if away from home, very difficult for any type of communication. Nowadays all data and financial transactions are by using the mobile and we stuck totally on such case. I have iPhones of old models and none of them had such screen problems as on date. So it means apple is compromising with quality on new models and it is very bad.

I just experienced few moments of yellow screen today, after restarting it went away, funny thing is i am yet to install (only downloaded) to 16.5.1

i am afraid if apple is going to even consider this a Manufacturer’s defect as exactly after 15-16 months of use many 13 pro max is showing this issue.

I have the same problem on my iPhone 13 Pro Max after recently updated to iOS 16.5.1(c) and Apple did not want to respond for the damages, I am very disappointing, I lose my faith in Apple Products. We should Join a Class-Action.......................

Same thing happened yo me this morning got up to take a shower and when I came back my phone glitched with a yellow screen. It flickered for a couple seconds and it came back to normal so I kept using the home and about 10 mins after it started again and ever since it’s been yellow. I hope it’s a software issue and they can resolve. I can’t see anything on my phone due to it.

after updating I am facing the same issue. I have never dropped my phone and anything that can damage the screen. this is clearly manufacturing fault.

apple must replace the screen for free. didn't even use the phone for two years.

my display is showing exact same pattern as yours.

I have faced a similar issue. However, They are saying software can never affect the hardware and this is a display issue, so unfortunately, I have to bear the repair cost since my phone is not under warranty.

Also, they mentioned that sometimes these hardware issues (which happened due to damage) show up after the updates, which I disagreed with because I know I handled my iPhone very carefully.

I fully agree, I looked for a solution to the problem and there is none, I had to change the screen and it cost me more than half the cost of the phone, the only thing they recommended was to deactivate automatic updates. I am a disappointed Apple fanboy.

I started having this issue when the iOS 17 update was released. Then the customer service people don't have an answer but to ask you to have your phone checked by a technician even if it obviously isn't a problem on the fault or maybe a problem they've created strategically to start manifesting after the warranty expires. When they were preparing to release the iPhone 15 series along with the iOS 17 update, this problem started. Maybe I'm the only one thinking that this is a way to force people to upgrade. I've been using Apple for decades now but I guess it's no longer as reliable as it used to be. I don't think this issue is happening to other phone brands. Bad birthday present, Apple.
