New to laptop...

[Joey96]

Hey people!

 

So I just bought my razer blade 15, and It's been a while since I've had a laptop so I really dont know, what to look for if I have a product with backlight bleed? 

When I enter a fullscreen black picture, and just look at it, there is some colourshift, at the edges, but when I move my head closer with a different angle, it changes to the black that the rest of the screen is.

The picture looks WAY worse than it does in real life, but on the picture that looks like massive backlight bleeding?

Basically look at a completely black screen straight on and look for any imperfections. The colour should be uniform.

So on the pictures here, the 1st one is all fucked and 2nd looks all perfect, but that would be because of the light from my monitor behind? 

So my laptop screen is all messed from these pictures?

1. Your camera amplifies the the back light if it is not properly configured to match what YOU see in reality (i.e: Don't use Auto mode, use Manual mode). Some minor backlight bleeding is sadly considered "normal" in the consumer portable device space due to space constraints (cost a lot to not have the problem, which manufacture prefers to not pay as very few people complains, and most people look at specs vs price and nothing else)
2. Your 2 pictures are terrible... turn off all lights sources
3. On a black screen, you should see little to no backlight appearing through. If you move your head and the backlight seems to be shifting and disappearing as you look closer, than that is called IPS Glow... A technology limitation of the IPS panel, there is no fix. There is a very costly process that diminishes this effect, but due to cost, it's not done, even on most professional grade monitors these days.
4. Non uniform backlight is the reality of all consumer monitors, no matter their type. Your old monitor had this, your new one will. You need to purchase a professional grade monitor to solve this.

Alright thanks man, so I shouldn't trust what the camera shows me is basically what you're saying.

And yes the light is shifting, which means my laptop is just having the standard IPS glow which is normal?

It depends on the illumination of your environment, and distance of the camera to the screen. What matters if not what the camera shows you, it is what YOU see with your own eyes. If the picture you are showing matches what you see in real life, than you have a perfect IPS panel, consider yourself very lucky.
