A video showing what’s happening with my [ever so slightly] out of AppleCare 2017 MacBook Pro. We have some great video of the widely reported Touch Bar flickering, but we also have:
Active behaviour – burnt missing touch bar segment (this happened recently after a few weeks of flickering)
Semi-idle behaviour – flickering over top of regular content, but the missing segment comes back
Idle behaviour – lots of very bright flicker covering about 1/3 of the bar
Video further looks at the MacBook under a thermal camera and then in 1/8 slow motion
Issue is present regardless of any fixes: SMC reset, PRAM/NVRAM reset, OS wipe and fresh install, etc…
