iPhone 16 Pro Max Screen Occasionally Displays Glitch Lines

Last weekend I bought an iPhone 16 Pro Max 512gb, and I’ve noticed that sometimes when I tap the display while it’s in Always-On mode, a few glitch lines briefly appear before disappearing. This happens randomly and not every time. So I’m concerned that the screen might be failing. What should I do about this?

iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18

I contacted Apple Support, and they said I could replace the iPhone at the store. However, I think it’s a software bug. I did some research on Reddit and found that this issue mainly happens with the Always-On Display. Since I turned off that feature, it hasn’t happened again
