MacBook Pro 14" external monitor flickering

A couple of days ago I got my new M1Pro MacBook Pro 14" and also got a new Dell P2721Q external monitor. I have a very serious and very specific screen flickering issue. I tried every ''fix'' I found on forums but nothing helped. I tried different cables, changed the settings around but still the same. Out of ideas now. :(


Issue is NOT present on the Intel powered MacBook Pro 13''.


Do you have any other ideas how to fix this issue?

I tried all of these but without any positive results. I also contacted Apple but we did not find any solution for now. There is many people with the same problem with M1 Macs. I hope they will fix it as soon as possible.

I have the same issue with the MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021), when I connect to the monitor Dell P2719H, the screen starts to flicker when I move my mouse to the external monitor. Have contacted the Apple support and tried the 4 solutions suggested by them and none of them solve the issue. They ask me to contact Dell!!!! but Dell has no clue either. Really hope someone can help to fix this issue.

  1. restart computer
  2. reinstalled MacOS
  3. Reset the SMC
  4. Reset NBRAM or PRAM
