Small holes/dents on macbook screen

I bought a macbook air m2 a month ago, but a few days ago I noticed that there are a few small dents on the screen. I am of course very careful with the macbook and therefore do not understand what the cause of this is?

Does anyone know if apple does something about this or do I just have to live with it?

MacBook Air, macOS 14.5

Tiny dent on the screen of my 16" Macbook pro M1 Max 2021 I recently noticed a tiny dent on the screen of my 16" Macbook Pro M1 Max 2021. When I say tiny I mean its the size of a pinhead, initially i thought it was a fleck of dust but upon closer inspection i can see its a tiny dent. I've taken great care since owning this laptop by cleaning the screen and keyboard before I close it. Ive seen on reddit alot of people talking about this but has anyone else had this problem? If so did you take it in and get it repaired? I've owned Macbooks for years and never had this happen before, maybe the quality of the screen is different on this one.

Small dents/holes in MBP 14 inch screen I am noticing tiny holes/bumps in my MacBook screen. I take good care of it like using microfiber cloth to clean it every 2 or 3 days. Even after that, I have multiple small holes in the display. Will I get a screen replacement under warranty?

Small dents appearing on screen despite extreme caution.. Hi all, I found loads of threads about this since finding a couple of tiny dents on my MBP screen yesterday.. I am extremely careful with my 2022 mbp and always keep it spotless and treat it like a baby, my previous 2011 MBA still looks brand new as I always look after my gear.. but I can't understand why this is happening? I know there are hundreds of similar cases out there of people getting dents or dimples despite them being very careful with their macbooks.. I am pretty disappointed because i spent two years saving for this macbook with extra ram and hdd.. its the most expensive laptop I have ever bought and it now has these little dents, one of them has a dead pixel behind it now right in the middle of the screen.. Has there been anything official on recognising this from apple in relation to replacement screen or anything under warranty? Thanks all

I can't see anything in that picture.

As yours is a hardware issue, I recommend you make arrangements to have Apple look at your MBA:

I think you can see it a little better in this picture. If I gently scrape it with my nail you can feel it too. But thanks for the comment!

Unfortunately, there's really nothing anyone can do here in this user-to-user forum.
