Advice needed: Backlight Bleed - Should i return or repair ?

[oh.jason.88]

Hi All,

Question: What should i do given that the 3rd monitor I've received is faulty ?

Timeline:
23rd March - Purchased Samsung LC27H711 monitor from JB Online
1st April - Returned Samsung monitor for clouding issues (hazy white lines that stay the same no matter what i do)
6th April - Received replacement Samsung monitor
15th April - Returned 2nd monitor for even worse clouding issues
23rd April - Purchase BenQ PD2710QC
27th April - BenQ arrived with noticeable backlight bleed on the top left corner

i) Should i just accept that most modern monitors will have some sort of issue ?
ii) Replace the monitor again with JB Hi Fi and hope i get a replacement with no issues ?
iii) Send the monitor away for repair (Under Warranty) ?

Thanks

I don’t think it’s an issue for all monitors. Although it happens a lot with IPS. I’ve got three Dell IPS panels without any issues.

Perhaps search through the reviews on Amazon for backlight and bleed, separately. If you only target screens with a lot of reviews and find no mention. You are probably safe. That’s what I did.

Mine are a few years old and out of production. Which is why I don’t bother listing the model.
