Pixel 10 Pro Users Already Facing Screen Problems

The Pixel 10 series is only just reaching buyers, but the Pixel 10 Pro is already in the spotlight for the wrong reason. Within days of launch, users began reporting display glitches. The problem shows up as thin red, green, or blue lines running across the screen. In some cases, the stripes flash randomly and make the phone hard to use.

The first posts appeared on Reddit, where owners shared photos of their new phones. The issue quickly spread to tech sites like Android Authority. What stands out is how inconsistent the glitch seems to be. Some people say the lines vanish after locking and unlocking the phone. For others, the problem keeps coming back again and again.

Right now, no one is sure what’s causing it. It could be a hardware defect — maybe a faulty panel, graphics chip, or another part. But it might also be a software bug that Google could fix with an update. The company hasn’t commented yet, so owners don’t know if they should wait or ask for a replacement.

For buyers already affected, the safest move is to contact Google Support or the retailer where the phone was purchased. Replacements seem to be available at the moment, but if more cases appear, wait times could grow.

The timing is awkward for Google. The Pixel 10 line started shipping on August 28, and it’s one of the company’s most important launches in years. The phones run on a new TSMC-built processor, which has already shown big improvements in battery life. Google also updated the software with its new Material 3 Expressive design, offering brighter colors and a more dynamic interface.

But shiny new features don’t matter much if the display — the thing people look at all day — isn’t reliable. Pixel phones have had hardware complaints in the past, and many fans are nervous this could be another setback.

Whether the problem ends up as a quick software patch or something that needs replacements on a larger scale, Google will need to act fast. The Pixel 10 Pro has a lot going for it, but trust is fragile. Early buyers are watching closely to see if Google can deliver a fix before frustration spreads further.
