Retina MacBook Pro Users Complain Anti-Reflective Display Coating is Wearing Off [Photos]
Comments

Just cancelled my order for a Macbook Pro Retina. Apple would not give me any guarantee that this problem has been resolved with the 2015 model. They just said not to touch the screenb with greasy fingers and that if it did happen, then the fault would be mine. That is not good enough.

Hmmm, I have Mid 2012 MacBook Pro Retina (15") for 3 years without single problem. 50% of time MBPr is in closed clamshell mode and 50% in normal open mode. So far I've cleaned the screen up to 10 times with glass cleaner and always with a soft, lint-free cloth.

I had the same problema, but with less drastic effects. It's starting to be a inconvenient when I start to see a movie in dark places... My main problema is that I bought the macbook in US and now I'm in Brazil. In the US a new display is 699 US dollars!!! In my country is 1500 US dollars... That's sucks!

Made inCHINA!!!

try to use your own semen when cleaning the retina display. it works!!

You effin moron! Now my MBP retina is a mess!

I’ve got a Retina MBP Mid 2014. Using it for 7 months and haven’t got any issue like the one reported. I hope not to face anything like.

I faced also this problem and give to Apple Service. They replaced the screen free of charge

Yeah, Mine is starting too.... Even if I cleaned it, It would show the same but lightly...

I clean my screen every week (sometimes every other week) with 3rd party cheap products or windex. When stuff like this happens, I find a dry cloth and buff that out. Just looks like people don't know how to clean it correctly, or aren't adding a lot of pressure. (Retina, Mid 2012)

You do realize that windex eats up that layer right?

Yes. The point is that while that happens to me, it's just a layer on the screen. I've yet to see this look extremely bad in person

Apple premium built at its best lol. You guys are fools Apple is crap now you guys complaining that people didnt use the correct cleaning solutions you guys are in a dream. You can use any kind of screen cleaner if your crapbook is crap it's crap stop coming up with excuses. You expensive notebook Its crap

Lol you must love being a big brave Internet troll bashing things you could never afford

Yes I got this too, cleaned it always with the apple cloth and water per apple's instructions. Retina screen looks like crap after this happens and considering we paid a big premium for that screen this is not a good deal.

Stop cleaning your macs with bleach.... lol

Apple is brand , Hardware china = shitty

my screen is fine but you can see where the keys touch the display....

I'm sure the replacement depends on what these fools are cleaning they're screens with. If your not following the instructions in the manual that's your fault. They are probably using window cleaner which is not what your suppose to do.

And unlike most company I'm sure Apple will replace it for FREE.
