ASUS PG279Q, poor backlight uniformity

[DieHertz]

Hi!

I've already gone through five samples of ASUS' newest PG279Q and all of them suffered from backlight bleed and assembly flaws. Some weren't rotating exactly 90 degrees, some had bezel not adhering to the panel, one had even shown signs of mechanical damage from falling.
The last one I've got is shown in photos:

Shall I return it too? Would you if you were me? Is there a significant chance I'll find a uniform panel or I'm seeking the unreachable?

Thanks! Maybe there's someone out there who got more lucky

That's actually not poor. I've seen much, much worse. If you can't stand uniformity issues, then consider buying a VA panel instead.


All the best!

Thanks for your opinion! I don't really know if it's such a big problem, I guess my point of view was biased by reading all these reviews from folk with similar pattern. I mostly use this PC for gaming, preferring the MacBook for work, may turn out I won't even notice the bleed while playing as I was purposely looking for it in a rare-case scenario (pitch black screen).

It's not going to be that visible during games, yes. But as long as your ´lights are off, or dim, then you'll probably notice it regardless what you use it for at the moment.

After giving it a closer look I've noticed a fair share of dead pixels and dust under coating. Returning to seller
