Just to be clear - this isn't a software issue, it's a hardware one.
Early rMBPs were known to suffer from "ghosting" - where old images persist on the display faintly in the background.
Pop to your local Apple Store and demonstrate the issue. They'll replace the top half of the clamshell - it's pretty standard and well known now.
- gr3yh47 11y agosuprised that image burn and its variants apparently are not so well known - as soon as i saw the image it was obvious it was a hardware issue
- copperx 11y ago> They'll replace the top half of the clamshell I've tried that twice, and they've refused to replace the screen even though my rMBP's serial number falls under a recall for the GPU. They claim that the image retention is normal for a Retina screen. Yes, my screen is an "LP" version (made by LG). Shrug.
- starquake 11y agoDon't stop there. Try it again! Maybe at another shop or something. Mine got replaced a few months ago and it was more than 2 years old. Maybe I got lucky because of EU regulations but I think you might get lucky at another Apple shop.
