Dell XPS 13 Screen Flicker Issue Anyone Else Facing This?

I’ve been noticing an annoying screen flicker issue on my Dell XPS 13 lately. It usually happens when I’m browsing or switching between apps sometimes the display dims or flashes for a second and then goes back to normal. I’ve tried updating the graphics drivers and tweaking the brightness settings, but it still keeps happening.

Has anyone else experienced screen flickering on their Dell XPS 13? Could it be a driver conflict, hardware fault, or something related to the Intel graphics settings? I’d really appreciate any advice or fixes that have worked for you.
 
Indeed, the Dell XPS 13 screen flicker is a frequently reported and prevalent problem with a number of models (such as the 9380, 9350, and 9315). Frequently, software conflicts (such as panel self-refresh settings), BIOS firmware, or out-of-date or corrupt graphics drivers are the cause. It is less likely to be a hardware issue.
 
Yeah, I’ve seen that happen on the XPS 13. For me, it was caused by the Intel graphics driver. Updating it (either through Dell’s SupportAssist or Intel’s site) fixed the flicker. Some people also turn off “Panel Self Refresh” in Intel Graphics settings, which helps a lot.

If it still happens, try adjusting the refresh rate in display settings or updating BIOS — those two usually solve it.
