IPS backlight bleed too much?

Why second rate? I thought it had pretty good/average reviews. I actually ordered the IIyama 2377 but they sent this one which I thought was a relative upgrade. I have noticed a lot of screen tear in some games but sorted it with adaptive vsync. The response time seemed ok on paper at 5ms. I must admit its not going to win any awards for looks/finish and the menu buttons and inputs are very awkward to access. Otherwise i thought the panel itself was supposed to be pretty good (obviously notwithstanding the bleed issue). I couldn't really find any decisive reviews and went with it on the specifications.
 
I was wondering about the settings. The brightness is on 100% default. The system I bought it with is being RMAed due to a boot fault so I thought I'd get some opinions on the backlight bleed and maybe send it all back. The photos do emphasise it a bit much.
