M3 Max MacBook Pro Sudden Blurry Screen

M3 Max MacBook Pro Sudden Blurry Screen

My M3 Max MBP got the dreaded blurry screen suddenly today. This sucks. I've been baby-ing this Mac since I got it. Bought it last December 2023 and had its display replaced under warranty by December 2024 because of some bad dead pixel issues. Fast forward to today, the display suddenly turned blurry and unusable. This sucks.

I've been using various MacBooks since 2008 and I can say that every new iteration has been getting fragile. This M3 Max is by far the most expensive. It's fast but damn, the screen is already shot (twice at that). Even my old 2008 MBP lasted almost a decade and with cracked screen and hinge at its latter years. I don't know if quality has just become crappy or it's planned obsolescence. Not gonna get another MacBook in any form for sure.

Will the M3 Max MacBook Pros work if the display is removed? At least it might look okay as a "headless" desktop slab pc.
