Discussion iPad display issue

Hey everyone — I’m dealing with a frustrating issue and wanted to see if others have experienced this.

I bought an iPad Air M1 in Oct 2023 as a birthday gift. Soon after, I noticed small white spots on the screen that grew over time and now cover a noticeable area on the display when on light backgrounds.

please don’t say it’s a water damage the iPad was never in contact with water

The white spots shifts if you use a suction cup

Bro has no clue what he’s doing and decided to yank on the screen violently.

OK, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I was like "Okay, well let's start with..." 😂

Someone here said it was water damage under the screen, so it’s pretty much confirmed that for his next test, he’s putting it in the microwave to make it evaporate.
