2020 (Intel) MacBook Pro Screen Flickering Screen flickers in bottom third of the screen. I have tried: OS update (worked and then came back). Running maintenance scripts via Cleanmymac (did not work) NVRAM reset (did not work) Running Apple diagnostics (no errors) I would assume hardware failure but for the fact the OS update made it go away but it came back. I also note that when the laptop starts there is no flickering or lines, they only come when at the log on screen. Had no issues until last night, updated to latest OS, went away then this afternoon came back for no reason, just appeared. Any help or direction gratefully received.

Intermittent black screen on Macbook Pro 15-inch, 2019 I have a Macbook Pro 15" 2019 running MacOS 13.4.1 (c) After a recent update, my Macbook has been flickering or having intermittent black screen every few minutes of active use. It has happened thrice while writing this post too. Has anyone else experienced this issue in the past? It's a laptop from work and my organization controls all the OS updates. Any help is appreciated. Best, Nick

I'd suspect a hardware issue, but there are a couple of things you can try:

Restart in Safe Mode and see if anything changes. Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support
Run Apple Diagnostics and see if it reports anything: Use Apple Diagnostics to test your Mac - Apple Support
