Backlight bleeding?

[hinderaker]

How much backlight bleeding is okey on a $500 monitor? Watch the youtube clip below and tell me if this is acceptable? My own opinion is NO. The backlight bleeding should be minimal and if nothing else, even!

Back light bleeding is an LCD issue; ALL of them have bleeding, but you are right, it should be even when displaying a solid color.

If you paid $500 USD for that you got took. That monitor is in the $390-400 range everywhere. And yeah, that minor amount of BLB is normal - especially for an LED backlit TN (and that's the basic mechanics of that monitor). 3D ready and 120hz is what inflates the price, not the quality of the panel.
