Studio Display with warm / hot corners of screen

Question

Studio Display with warm / hot corners of screen

Has anyone else experienced the corners of their Studio Display screen getting warm / hot?

Its only 2 weeks old and is connected to a Mac Studio M4 Max which is 4 weeks old.

The top right corner of mine is the worst followed by the bottom right, bottom left. The top left is the coolest of them all. So they get only slighter cooler from the top right to the top left going anti-clockwise

It gets worse with a screen saver running. I have disconnected my 2 permanently connected external hard drives ( time machine and document files ) and started it up in safe mode... Just the same?

The fans have not kicked in at all ever. Can hardly hear them.. Just a quiet whisper can be heard if I put my ear close to the top vent.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Bernard

My Mac studio display also has this pattern. Been this way since new about 2 years ago but no issues. Mine is slightly warm (not hot) in the order you have stated.

Thanks for your reply..

I will probably contact Apple support as they have said that it may be an idea to let a technician take a look at it to check it out. If I do i will let you know the outcome..
