Macbook Pro Touchbar Blinking/Flickering/Flashing when Idle
Device: 13-inch MacBook Pro 2018. Part number MR9Q2. Hi, this is my current MBP touchbar condition. The touchbar will start blinking when the machine is idle or watching a video (which kinda annoying). At first it only have small blink area (maybe only 2cm), and it been months and its getting longer. Based on forums, it was hardware faulty so Apple have replaced the top case, battery and touchbar. I'm already out of my warranty service and replacing option will take $$$ so maybe I'll let it be and see what happen next. I hope Apple would have MacBook Pro variant that replace touchbar with physical keyboard that more reliable instead (last happened at 2017) but without decreasing the feature or hardware performance. At 2017 model it have only 2 USB-C slot and smaller CPU clock speed.
