iPhone 16 Pro Max Screen Occasionally Displays Glitch Lines

the same thing was happening to me. I took the phone to the apple store and they replaced it. My new phone is still glitching. Less but idk what to do.

I had the latest update 18.3.1 but its doesn't resolve my issue.i am still having issue just on always on display

I've been without this problem for a while, I haven't done anything different except keeping everything updated. IP16 PM, 512GB, Black, iOS 18.3.1

I have had my iPhone 16 pro max 1tb replaced and the glitch is still happening.

Thanks for your advice. I am waiting for the 18.4 update. Hopefully, it will resolve the glitching issue.

I have the same problem with iphone 16 pro Max 256g , I didn’t send it to the service yet , but I tried everything still same , it is DEFECT OLED LIGHTS ghostings light pixel .

I know how to fix the issue; you just need to disable the 5G connection and keep 4G permanently enabled… Unfortunately, it's a network modem interference problem.

Desable 5G data connection (4G only). you'll fix the issue.

5g. But I had issues with data while having phone calls. Sometimes was unavaiable.

I managed to make a video. In this case, the lines are only at the bottom, but they often appear across the entire screen. I’m sending it to Apple (I had already reported the issue, but without a video) hoping it will be helpful.

Same thing here, got my iPhone 16 pro max a week ago and it’s very laggy and glitchy. Supposed to take it to apple tomorrow, ans I’m hesitating now that I’m reading y’all comments. Should maybe wait for the 18.1 update, maybe it’ll fix everything

Yep I've had this issue from day 1, happens at random times. Apple Support did a check but iPhone 'seemed fine' and no software issues, suggested I book a genius appointment but looks like it's a bug! Please sort it out Apple!

I have experienced this issue before 2 or 3 times very occasionally 2 weeks ago and never noticed it again until last night when I was in an indoors concert which it did it around 5 times in the span of an hour roughly… it was always when waking up the screen from “always on display” or when pressing the camera control button.

my phone was fairly hot because I had it on my hand while taking raw photos and recording in 4K. That’s what leads me to think it happened that often during that time?

Since then I’ve kept locking and unlocking my phone and the lines are not coming back…

but for the looks of it if it’s only happening when using “always on display” and in the scenario for all of us so I really hope it is a software issue that gets fixed soon and not hardware related

I just received mine in the mail brand new yesterday. Once it did the update after transferring everything from my old phone I can’t even put in my passcode. Also, the phone won’t do a hard reset with button combinations. I’m stuck on the hello screen and it won’t even let me restart it. The screen flashes past the pass code entry right back to the hello screen. I talked to Apple Support and they said I have to take it to Best Buy as an authorized place to work on Apple devices. I’m hoping this will fix my issue considering I can’t even use the phone. It sure has been one expensive paper weight up to this point.

Leider habe ich dieses Problem auch nach dem IOS Update 18.1 noch immer. Ich bin hier etwas überrascht, dass es kein aussagekräftiges Statement von Apple gibt. Es gibt ja hierzu einige Eintragungen mit dem gleichen Problem. Da ich zum ersten mal ein solches Problem mit dem I phone 16 pro max habe ist für mich die Frage, ob hier noch gehandelt wird.
