Hi!

So, my MacBook Air 2018 13 inch displays this pink glitch screen each time it turns on (please see photo).

A 2 days ago, it only showed this when I moved my screen a certain way but if I moved it forward a bit, it displayed normally & also connected to my external monitor.

Today, I made the mistake of bringing my laptop to work with me and now it’s stuck on the pink glitch screen no matter what I do. It won’t display anything on my external monitor either. I’m not sure if it got worse because I moved it around today but either way, I’m sad lol

I’m going to bring it into Genius Bar for a look, but I also want to avoid an expensive fix or getting a whole new laptop if possible because money is a little tight right now…but I would prefer getting it fixed rather than buying a new once if this can be fixed even!

I just wanted to see if anyone else had any experience with this or if there is anything else I should know? Thank you!

    Its a flex gate issue. Any repair technician can fix it by adding jumpers. It is very common on macbook from 2015 to 2018. Flex gate cable is too short on these model which caused this issue.
