Apple newly launched iPhone 18 Pro is drawing online attention for the wrong reasons. Some users are reporting display lines and Face ID related problems within days of getting the device. Images showing green lines on the screen have circulated widely on social media, although some of those pictures appear to be edited or misleading. However, at least one reported case of a display line appears to be genuine, which is adding to concerns among early buyers. Separately, multiple users have reported problems with Face ID. In some cases Face ID reportedly stops working while users are trying to unlock certain apps, with the device becoming unresponsive before freezing and restarting. Others have seen a Face ID not available message while setting up the feature on their devices. The reported issues do not appear to affect every iPhone 18 Pro user, and there is currently no indication that they are widespread across all devices. Some of the Face ID problems could potentially be linked to software, which means a future iOS update may resolve them. Apple has not indicated that the reported issues affect the overall reliability of the device, so users facing problems may need to wait for further software updates or official guidance.
