Macbook pro 13", black screen

but after SMC reset and wait a few hours, it will show the display after restarting. but reoccurs often. like 5 times today, which is the first time this happened, and each time it took longer to show the display. also when restarting I can see the blur of the apple logo but after log in (even tough i can't see the login, i just type in the password), nothing is shown. but everything works,

i can give commands to siri to do things, apps also work, keyboard, touchpad everything works, and also the files aren't corrupted.

I'm doing a backup at the moment just in case. it will happen again and I don't know the reason. some have mentioned the SMC is corrupted.

On the M-series Mac (?)

there is No SMC or NVRAM on the M1/M2/M3/M4 SoC.

The best you can do if you have an issue— equivalent Shut down, close the lid 30 secs+ , reboot as normal.

A properly function display NEVER shows the big central solid apple as a blur.

your built-in display may needs service, or you may need to add an external display for sold reliability.
