    Hi guys,
    I want to buy a MBP 15", but I've heard something about LCD flickering on new unibody macbookpro display, Is it true? If yes what I must to do?

    I thought it might be a problem, but my 17" june 2009 uMBP is perfect no flickering at all, I think this is a old fixed issue.

    But some people are more sensitive than others.

    No flicker here. I think the flickering might be a manufaturing fault, and if so, Apple would gladly fix/replace it.
