Not likely. Your screen has likely started to fail and the stress of an update may have pushed it over the edge, but fail your screen would likely do regardless. You are welcome to ask Apple if they will replace the screen without charge, but if I were you, I wouldn't hold my breath for a free replacement.

Welcome and thank you for reaching out. 🤗


There appears to be a problem with the internal display panel. Only a certified Apple technician can determine the cause and offer a complete solution.


Therefore, I recommend service.
