The new M4 iPad Pro is out, it’s impressive, but several users have reported that a screen glitch has been identified with the high-end tablet.
The cool cats at iMore noted that while testing the 13-inch model, a niche issue that some users may never notice appeared in the device.
The glitch should only be noticeable when the user viewing HDR content. “In a relatively specific set of circumstances,” iMore reports, “HDR highlights are blown out on certain blue shades including navy and indigo to a point that they almost appear white on screen.” The site says the effect can seem like a shimmering web over the screen, or like an inky blob. iMore has speculated that the image processing engine is getting confused in some way.
At present, iMore stated that it couldn’t replicate the issue on numerous other displays, placing the fault with the M4 iPad Pro’s screen. Apple, in turn, has acknowledged that the company is aware of the issue and is working on a software fix. The iPad Pro already had a day-one software update to fix issues with the new document scanner.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
