Yellow Screen of Death - iPhone 13 Pro Max
Earlier today, while using my iPhone 13 Pro Max for work as usual, I suddenly noticed yellow horizontal line glitches flashing on the upper and lower edges of my screen while chatting with my colleagues. Within minutes, the entire screen was covered with these yellow lines, making it completely unusable—I couldn’t see anything or even restart or shut down my phone.
I’m extremely frustrated. After reading through discussions in this community, I’m shocked that this issue is still happening in 2025. I don’t have AppleCare coverage at this point, but I strongly believe that affected users deserve compensation or, at the very least, a waiver for the repair costs. Apple needs to take responsibility for this recurring issue.
I am now on the way to the inspection station.
