[INFO] Light bleed (theory)

I was looking at some videos online of the TF yesterday and I noticed that most of the people that have the dock close it from the top of the tablet. Being that the dock only holds to the bottom of the tab, is it possible that the chassis is getting stressed causing light bleed? I know there are people out there that dont have the light bleed issue. I am wondering if those people use the keyboard dock or not.
Just a theory

I have light bleed from the right-middle side of the display. It was like this out of the box. No dock (yet.)

I have 7 (seven) light bleeds 2 on the left hand side, one in left top corner, 3 on the bottom and one in the middle on the right hand side, no doc but i've noticed that when you twist the tablet slightly the bleeds getting brighter and stay this way for some time so there may be something in yours theory

My theory is that Asus had to cut lots of corners to get the TF to as cheap as it is and the bleeding and cheapo plastic casing is a consequence of this. :/

Actually, I think it's related to the IPS screens, because the iPad/iPad 2 have had similar light bleeding.

When I dock the tablet, the light bleed becomes more apparent. Yes, the pressure does something, but it can't be fixed either way.

Just FYI. A lot of LED LCD Samsung TV users have noticed bleeding from the sides of those TVs and have fixed or helped the situation by relaxing the chassis screws in those areas.
You can search for more info about it at the AVS forums.

I have noticed this as well... all of the bleeding on mine seems to be more obvious when it has been docked and in use for a period of time. I was going to ask the question to everyone else (if they were also having that experience). I guess I don't need to now.

I've had light bleed from day one and don't have a dock.

Finally decided to test this light bleed thing. Max brightness in complete darkness showed no lightbleed. So, it's not chronic to every unit.

Transformers like yours seem to be the exception rather than the norm though.

just did the same. full brightness in a dark room. no light bleed. guess i just got lucky [knock on wood]

I finally got a TF and the Dock. I used it for about three weeks without the dock and th light bleed slowly started showing up I haven't noticed more or less light bleed when in the dock but I have notice that it is most noticable at the bottom right corner and I happen to be right handed.
I don't know if there is any weight to my original dock theory but the light bleed has deff gotten worse in the last couple weeks

How much light bleed is too much?

I have a few spots on the top of my screen and they appear to be getting worse with use? Is it OK to RMA for any light bleed?
What is tech support'a view on this?

I'd say RMA it. Any light bleed = too much light bleed.

Agreed. The one I have doesn't seem to have any noticeable light bleed.

I have a slight lightbleed in the bottom left corner. It's not enough for me to RMA it, yet.

Can someone post a picture of what light bleed looks like?

This is a good example of really bad light bleed

Anything greater than zero is too much. Mine has no bleed at all, even when turned up to full brightness in a dark room.

My returned unit is similar to the picture posted above. I have my 4th unit awaiting pick-up today from Future Shop...hopefully the 4th time is a charm...
The best way I've found to check for bleed is go into your options, display/brightness, turn off automatic adjustment, and set it to 0% brightness. It'll be obvious if you have any issues then. At 100% it's unnoticeable as it is flooding the screen.

Most all devices will have some light bleed from the edge of the screen IF you turn the device at a steep angle and are in a dark place. Anything more then this or any noticeable bleeding looking directly at the device is way way too much..
Just my opinion .

Too much light bleed?

I read some posts regarding the light bleed in pure black screen under a dark environment with brightness set to 100%. However, My Nexus 7 (2013) doesn't show a serious problem in this condition but very noticeable at the top edge with other colors especially the grey and blue.
I took two shots here and do you guys think it is serious?
My Nexus 7 (2013) has been repaired for 4 times (The first time I have one dead pixel in the center of the screen) and I afraid if the Asus service center replaced a new LCD panel for me, it will have dead/stuck pixels again.

Katecca,
There will always be light bleed sooner or later. I had my N7 G1 and it light bleed too. It gets worse with time but are you going to keep staring at the corner of the screen while you play Real Racing 3? With light background colours you won't notice it. My N7 GII had excessive light bleed the first time I turned it on but after I put a colourful wallpaper you can't see it anymore. If everything is fine then there is no point in bringing it in to Asus for repair.

The lighter background color, the more noticeable light bleed. I tried RR3 and it is noticeable when I focused on the left edge.

Actually light bleed doesn't get worse over time. Unless somehow your screen gets so hot that it melts the seal of the screen. Which then means light bleed is the last of your issues.

Display Quality? Who's having issues with light bleed?

Honestly I'm a bit disappointed by the quality of the screen. I have some major light bleed at the lower left hand corner of the screen. Hard to unseen once I've noticed it.
Anyone else experiencing the same?

Lightbleed probably guaranteed from the top half near the camera...
Worth checking that out too...

I must be one of the luckier ones. Zero bleed for me.
Mine was a very early unit too (purchased in Taiwan on release day)

no light bleed here too.

Zero light bleed here. I have one of the pre-order US units.

Light bleed from the second screen but only​ when brightness is jacked up, which is often for watching video. No better nor worse than my old V10's 2nd screen but disappointing nonetheless.

Hi all I also have no light bleed anywhere on the screen and have to say I have mine on full brightness nearly all of the time and tend to use dark wallpapers so if it was there would of shown by now. I have to also say the screen is absolutely brilliant being bright and clear and one of the reasons I chose the Ultra was for its super LCD over being a amoled screen.

I just went through 2 white U Ultras in Canada...and sadly...both had the same light bleed issues. I really like the device...but in the end...I had to send them back and get a refund. HTC seems good about it though. Maybe I will pick it up again in another couple of months after a price cut.

Black HTC Ultra : No light bleed

HTC or Amazon recognize the light bleed as a defect that justifies the replacement or return with refund?
I have an HTC U Ultra with a light bleed at the lower left corner

I got a light leak too.
I will have to live with that forever. I really wish i could sell it.

noticing some light bleed

So I've had my phone for about a week and am noticing some light bleed on the edges. Really noticeable on the boot up and then not bad unless I look for it or it's a dark screen.
I guess I'm just wondering if it'll get worse over time and something I should exchange for.
