My new Dell U2717D has backlight bleed I think, I'm not sure... Help me

[RRGT19]

Hi,

I have received my new monitor today, Dell U2717D for $515, imp included.

 

I had added a dark background to see if the monitor has backlight bleed, but it looks good, then screen in front of my is completely dark, but with the camera of my iPhone it looks white in a lot of different positions.

 

I'm not sure if it is defective or not. Should I return it?.

 

I changed the brightness from 75% to 100% and then I sawna completely black screen, minus the right side. But with my camera it looks white by a lot.

 

what do you think guys?. Is that normal?...

 

Look photos attached...

 

(The Dell Gaming G Sync monitor was at $580 but I hate TN panels, I love the colors of an IPS panel, is better for my taste.)

If you can't see any backlight bleed then there is no backlight bleed. What the camera sees is irrelevant.

Backlight bleed is something you cant really do anything about. Its one of the cons that comes with IPS and is very normal. Personally I have learned to ignore since I love the monitor and dont really care what the screen looks like when its pitch black during the short time it takes some programs to open. Compared to mine your looks much better. You could always invest in OLED (turns pixels off instead of displaying black) but right now, not worth the money.

Looks more than good enough. No point in returning it.
