Hi,
I have just received my Asus TF today, and I absolutely love it!
However I have just noticed that in the middle of the screen @ the very bottom the light is slightly bleeding out (ie there is a lighter spot on the black bar).
Its just right above the docking point.
Is this a common issue / design, or is mine faulty?
Sorry, its probably a completely stupid question, but I just want to figure out if I should be asking for a new one....
It's a common issue, you're not alone.
Some of us have returned TF's with light bleed, while others accept it.
If you just have one section at the bottom, keep it. Mine had four different areas of bleed.
I have light bleeding but only noticeable when showing pure full screen black picture in a dark room. So its not really a big deal for me ( I guess nothing is perfect). However, I wonder if others have worse.
I have some light bleed at the bottom of my screen in 3 different areas. Its not too bad and i can only see it on a black screen. Its better ecer since i put the sceen on auto brightness
this problem will exist with LG ips screen. :O
Got my replacement from BestBuy today, Original had one bad light bleed and 3 smaller ones. Also had a dead pixel in the middle of the screen.
New one has small light bleed in lower corner, hardly noticeable and no dead pixels.
Now I just need to pick a ROM to put on ;-)

No. No it will not. LG IPS panels do not even have backlights; not inherently, anyway.
I hate when people blame light bleed on IPS. It's not the IPS technology, it's the poor quality edge-lighting

Then it's LG's messed up edge-lit lighting.

Yes, that's probably true. Asus might be responsible for the backlight, or they may have bought it from yet another third party, but it's probably LG's.
Mine has very small ribboning of light at the bottom of the screen, would have never noticed in normal use. I checked my Ipad that I have had for a year and its exactly the same and in the same place, never noticed till I looked for it. Possibly all tablets have LB to some extent if its not noticible in every day use its only a problem if it bothers you looking at a black screen in a dark room

Not all tablets have lightbleed.
Most do, though, because of the form factor basically requiring edge-lit backlights, which are very tempermental
I just received mine yesterday & don't seem to have any light bleed. That is unless I don't know what I am looking for.
My only real issue seems to be with the power button. I have to push it 2 or 3 time for my transformer to wake up.
I have the same issue, 2 spots at the top of the screen. I don't think I ever see it though unless the display is entirely black or at least very dark. If it were much worse I'd consider getting a replacement, however from what I've read on the subject it doesn't seem to get (significantly) worse over time under normal conditions, however excess strain may worsen the effect. Thankfully the TF101 seems pretty solid so I don't think its going to be much of an issue.
Mine has it in about three or four places too, I don't really care about it though.
Sadly I just noticed two spots in the middle of my screen that are white. I do not think it is light bleed but I have already issued a RMA with NCIX on this.
I noticed that it is an issue on Amazon as well....according to this review.

Dammit.
Ah well. Will RMA it and if that fails will get a refund and get a Acer Iconia instead.
has anyone checked the screen and found dead pixel? im trying to buy galaxy tab 7.7 but worried about the quality of screen.
hi,
mine had 1 red pixel and claimed with out problem.
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda premium.
I have a "burn in screen" problem at the status bar position and I think it is common problem for amoled screens
I have had no screen issues whatsoever.
I had a stuck red pixel on my first one. Promptly replaced it with a new flawless one.
It would seem there can be imperfect screens being released.
No screen issues here...
i haven't found dead pixel
other than me scratching my screen on it 1st fall, I have not problem with it.
i actually love the picture quality
Got my Nexus 7 when it launched, and I thought I'd been one of the lucky few with no defects whatsoever.
But about a week ago, on a really hot day, my screen started showing these yellow spots, most noticeable on a white background. After a bit of Googling, I've found it's really similar to the issues people had been facing with the One X's screen.
There are two spots, one in the top left, one in the top right corner when held landscape. Heat/gripping the tablet around that area makes the spots more yellow and more noticeable, and the only thing I've found that makes it go away is either letting it sit there, or to not touch those areas, or pressing down hard on the screen on these spots (but this only makes it go away for a few minutes).
Anyway, it's similar to the One X issue, so I'm assuming it's something to do with the glue between the digitizer and display melting. If it doesn't go away it looks like I'm going to have to get it repaired. :/

So is anyone else having this issue? I haven't seen many reports of it
I haven't seen this problem but it doesn't sound like it will just go away. I would try and get an RMA.

Hello all! So, lately my G2 has had the left edge of the screen exhibit this weird phenomenon where some pixels in the middle left are lighter than surrounding pixels. It's not noticeable at all in dark environments, but extremely noticeable in white areas. Also, it's been"growing," the original was only on the left side and small, by now (been a few months) it's gotten about twice as big and there's another smaller one on the right side. I was assuming the solution would be a screen replacement, as I've dropped this a few times honestly with no case (No cracks though.) And that's the only reason I can think of for this issue. I want to fix it myself, I'm confident in my abilities to since I'm good with hardware, I'd just like to double check that the screen actually is the problem before sinking cash into replacing it. Can anyone who had a similar issue confirm?
My screen has been like this since day one. In the pictures you can see brighter back light bleeding from the top center/right, the right middle/bottom, and the bottom center/left. Also, a bit of light shines through the white bezel in the bottom center which now that I notice, won't stop bugging me.
Was hoping it would go away but I got this on Amazon so an exchange would be easy as long as it comes back in stock soon (white 32GB).
Is mine the only one plagued with this? Keep in mind that this is with brightness turned all the way up on a black screen.
Yea I have screen bleed at two spots but it doesn't bother me unless for some reason it starts to expand then it will become an issue.
Most LCD panels, which are backlit, will have some light bleed around the edges. You can return the phone for a different one, but you'll probably have the same issue. It is the nature of backlit LCD panels. AMOLEDs don't have this problem since each pixel has its own light source.
Thanks for the input guys!
I don't seem to have this issue on mine. I can't notice anything like this when I turn on Moto Display. Is there an easy way for me to test this out?
the nature of LCD. one of the reasons I enjoy amoled as well.

I have this screen bleeding too.
I've got my device yesterday and started "Dead Pixel Test", on the black screen i saw the screen-bleeding.
All my previous devices didn't have a screen bleeding, or it wasn't noticeable like that.
