Is this too much backlight bleed?

Post by Swedishguy33 » 23 Dec 2023, 09:38

Hi

I have an Acer gaming monitor. I use 90 % brightness and did the backlight bleed test. Is this too much backlight bleed?

It only matters what's actually visible in real life when you set brightness to 100-120cdm2, not 400cdm2.

This is pretty excessive in my opinion. Note that the orange-ish spots are not backlight bleed, but IPS glow, and it's normal for this panel technology. However, the fainter and more blue-ish spots are indeed backlight bleed. It's a panel lottery, really. I used to play the panel lottery game, but eventually I switched to OLED and I'll never go back to the severely flawed LCD technology.
