New MBP 15 inch Red screen

I have a 15 MBP 2016 with the radeon pro 455 2 GB. I frequently have the computer hooked up to a second monitor and when i wake it up around 1 in 10 times it gives me a "red screen of death". It seems to happen more often when I have services that i use for development running in the background.

Unlike the screenshots here the mac's screen is completely red. Before I upgraded to High Sierra I idd not get this problem. The laptop is unresponsive when its like this so i have to shut it down.

This is really terrible, not what I would expect from Mac in 2016 that cost more than 3k at all. Reminds me of windows laptops from back in the day!

Make an appointment at the Apple Genius Bar for service. If needed find an Apple Store - Find a Store - Apple.

Seeing the same red windows on new MBP 15" w Radeon 560, and also, as you have found, red windows don't appear in screenshots.

Red windows happen after sleep or screensaver, and they occur in the bottom-most window when multiple documents are open, across text based applications and Finders (not browser windows, e.g.) and across multiple desktops simultaneously.

Clicking in these windows returns them to normal.

I'm sure I will not be visiting a Genius Bar for this issue at this point.

No, I'm still seeing it occasionally, and I saw a window yesterday with a more garbled look, similar to what I've seen full screen with bad graphics cards.

Because this isn't an issue full screen, is limited to random windows at random times, and it isn't able to be captured in a screenshot, I doubt it's a hardware problem, but I'm curious to see if it stops or continues when I have time to upgrade to High Sierra. I'll let you know..
