    Are these 27GL850 Defects Worth Getting a Replacement?

    That's a good way to put it. Chocked up the shadow to sitting too close and it just being within the design tolerances of the monitor. Curiously enough, I found a similar thing on my LG tv as well. I'm lucky with there not being anything on the actual usable portion of the screen, so now I think...

    Are these 27GL850 Defects Worth Getting a Replacement?

    I'm thinking that is probably the most likely scenario, although I wonder how they have been able to pull off panels like this on laptops without running into similar design constraints, though I think distance and screen size has something to do with that. I've actually come to the conclusion...

    Are these 27GL850 Defects Worth Getting a Replacement?

    I think it likely was hidden under the bezels... There is definitely some compromises that have to be made when designing panels to be as slim as they are trying to make them now. It looks like the shadow on many 27GL850's is just a by product of the overhang of the bezel over the backlight, but...

    Are these 27GL850 Defects Worth Getting a Replacement?

    Yeah, the shadow thing looks to be pretty common with this panel and some other panels. I think it is a valid point that I risk returning a pretty good panel for one that is broken, so I that might just leave me to live with it. I still have a few more weeks to return it, so I might just wait a...

    Are these 27GL850 Defects Worth Getting a Replacement?

    Someone else who I was speaking to mentioned something very similar. I would assume larger bezels made it much easier to hid things like this. My main concern was whether this was something that was specific to my unit, but considering this seems to be relatively common, I might not even bother...

    You're not the first person to say this too haha. Definitely risking replacing this panel with something potentially worse. Was more curious to see if these were actual defects or within some of the design margins of the panel. Nevertheless, thanks for the response!

    Are these 27GL850 Defects Worth Getting a Replacement?

    I posted a few days ago in regards to somethings I noticed about my new 27GL850. Super happy with the monitor, but this being my first IPS and expensive panel, I naturally am very paranoid that I have a defective or bad panel. Thankfully this panels doesn't have any dead pixels and the blb on it...
