Hi Guys.. I have had a MacBook Pro 2018. Ive have a screen issues after 2 years of a normal use. this meaning every time I'm watching video on YouTube or zoom meeting my screen goes flicking and blurring out and also heated up my machine. is this a problem with graphics card or screen? can I replace it? is it expensive? pls advise Thanks

Hi,
I think your MacBook Pro is suffering from "Flatgate" issue, your flat cable which connects between screen panel and logic board is something wrong.
You would need to contact Apple Support or take your MacBook Pro to your local retail AppleStore, Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined your MacBook Pro there.
If you have AppleCare, it would be free of charge to fix it up, though if you don't, it would be quite expensive, I suppose.

Thanks for your input. it's a bit odd because it's only happened when I've start using a video call of watching video for a while. the machine is heating up. bit I have been using it without watching video and its fine. would it be the flatgate still?
