Original Title: Eye strain on M4 Air
macOS includes many customizable settings that are likely to mitigate the effects.
Start with Get started with accessibility features on Mac - Apple Support, and experiment with the various Accessibility features for vision on Mac - Apple Support. For example can alter the display color temperatures to be "warmer" or "colder" or dim the display if it's too bright.
Obviously everyone's impressions are going to be highly subjective.
If you still can't find a way to comfortably use that Mac by all means let Apple know about it, and yes you can certainly return it for a full cash refund if it should come to that.
Adjust Display Settings:
Reduce brightness to a comfortable level.
Enable Night Shift mode to reduce blue light emission in the evening.
Experiment with the display tone settings (pre-Monterey) or adjust reference mode (Monterey and later) for better color balance.
If you are within 14 days from purchase, you could return it for a refund and consider a MacBook Pro that offers a much better display.
Good luck! 👋🏼😉
It looks like Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is unlikely to be the source of your eye strain. NotebookCheck tested a 15" M4 MacBook Air and was unable to detect any PWM flickering at all.
How can I prevent eye strain when using my MacBook Air M4?
