I noticed my iphone 16 I purchased 3 days back, the display started flashing purple on the edges of the screen when it dims before turns off. But the flashing goes away when you touch the screen on press a button as u usually do to stop it from turning off. It only happens during that dim state. Maybe it has something to do with the 1 nit brightness on the new screens. Anyone else experience this

iPhone 16
I too observed something similar - The purple-ish tint across the screen (not opaque), more like a purple layer above the current screen with continuous blink/flicker. No lines seen. Remains for about 5-6 seconds before vanishing.
iPhone 16.
Same here
I’m currently experiencing this issue. I noticed a few weeks back, updated to latest version 18.1.1 and just noticed it again. Anyone have any potential suggestions for fixes?
Im also having the same issue with my new iPhone 16 plus and the issue seems to be due to the stock wallpaper animation which is glitching on ios 18…Apple you need to fix this ASAP in the next update!!!
Something similar, but no flickering, the screen dims with a purple tone or layer before goes off but it’s static.
I’m thinking this may be related to the iPhone 16 Plus that has the “always active screen” (I think that’s the name) and maybe this is a bug for the iPhone 16 that doesn’t have that capability.
Same problem, but the heating happened in the early days, it get very hot at the point to stop charging to resume later when temperature reached normal levels. It hasn’t happened again but now I’m showing the purple screen issue.
Heating is normal for the first few days as the phone is setting up in the background which may take some time. Yes the pink screen is indeed a bug and happens using the stock new wallpaper for the 16. Change to a different one in the meantime to resolve the issue. Worked for me.
Yes, I have experienced a similar issue with my recently purchased iPhone 16. Approximately three weeks ago, the screen flickered and displayed purple blinking at the edges. This behavior was not observed in iOS 18.1.1. However, since upgrading to iOS 18.2, the issue has become more frequent and occurs randomly for only four seconds before disappearing on its own. Additionally, the auto-brightness and true tone features have been activated.
Me too experience same issue with my iPhone 16 256 GB version
it flicking about 2-3 second before screen goes lock
I also encountered this problem on iphone 16

Apple just release iOS18.1.1 today. It comes with bug fixes - hopefully this is one of them that’s fixed! 🤞
I am also facing the same issue with my iphone 16 plus bought 10 days back. Is this device defected ? Just came from samsung s series. Never had such issue with screen.
