Asus PG279Q IPS Glow or BLB?

[Joshuan]

Can someone more experienced please help me out? I purchased a new Asus Swift PG279Q that seems to display a lack of contrast in dark scenes, which gets much worse at wider angles where the whole screen appears washed out. I took a few photos in absolute darkness with brightness at 50.

Is this IPS Glow or Backlight Bleed? Thanks in advance.

Showing the effect from different angles. In real life it doesn't look that scary but that's how it appears on camera.

Anyone please?

Sort of hard to tell since the camera overexposes it but it looks like IPS glow. If the corners are yellowish then what you are seeing is glow and Asus and Acer variations of these high refresh IPS panels.

Looks like a little bit of both. Have you adjusted the brightness down and turned on blue light features to lvl 4?

Thanks for the replies. I did adjust brightness to lower values and that improved, but still have a lot of issues in dark scenery, especially if I move up or to the sides the whole scene gets grey. How does increasing the blue light features help with the IPS glow? It causes a strong shift in white balance though.
