I am sitting close to the screen

So this replacement has ips glow but no better than my previous one?

Ok ur sitting close ..but have u tried sitting u further away ? does it help with the amount of IPS glow u see ?

This replacement has as much if not more than the original one u had, at least thats what it looks like from the pictures.

If u want to avoid IPS glow all together the only way is to not get an IPS panel Monitor. Get a VA for example.

BUt as i stated, there are only a handful of tested and reviewed ultrawide displays, and none of them have 'good' uniformity. BUT could be a better option none the less if u really want ultra wide.

For example, the SuperUltraWide Samsung CHG90, which is a 49" 3840 x 1080 VA 144hz display.

Its not great uniformity for a VA, there are much better 16:9 options, but if u want Ultrawide, this is the best one i've seen reviewed in regards to uniformity.

It will NOT suffer IPS glow, as its not IPS, but ,like all LCD's, can suffer BLB. It does however have a very (very) basic local dimming feature which can help hide BLB in certain situations.

BLB can also 'sometimes' be reduced / fixed by some small DIY tricks. but dont count on them.

Sitting far away does reduce the amount of ips glow I see

So this replacement unit has ips glow and no backlight bleeding as my previous one right?

The Samsung superultrawide you listed cost over $1k which is going to take me a long while to afford it because right now I am in bad finance. I have to pay out of pocket $700(no include textbooks only classes) for my college spring semester classes and want to get a vacuum cleaner in xmas.

Well seems like u got only 3 options then

Deal with it how it is
Sit further away and deal with what u got
Get it replaced again with another one and try the lottery once again.

As for continued comparisons of IPS glow and BLB, ur in a much better position to make that comparison than we are here on the forums, u have the display in front of you. You know what to look for now.

There not much more i can help with.
