TL;DR
- The December Drop for Pixel phones introduced a significant display bug for some users.
- According to users’ reports, the display on their Pixel 10 randomly freezes after the phone has been resting for a while.
- This isn’t the first display bug that the Pixel 10 users have been facing.
The December Pixel Drop, which arrived exactly a week ago, was primarily aimed at eradicating a punch list of issues troubling users of the Pixel 6 and above. But in fixing those bugs, Google may have triggered a handful of new ones. After we learned about a relatively less bothersome snag with single-handed mode or an unsightly glitch with the always-on display, we’re learning of a major issue that could potentially impact a broader set of Pixel 10 users.
Reddit user tstrmr recently posted about the display on their Pixel 10 Pro XL becoming unresponsive randomly. The issue specifically occurs when the phone is locked and sat down for a certain duration, following which the display stops registering touch at all.
