How to remove backlight bleed - The only proven method
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- I got the Asus PG279Q monitor - the famous backlight bleed gamble panel monstrosity. I knew what the risks are, but since it's such a great monitor, I decided to take a leap of faith.
The unit I got had the average amount of backlight bleed present in 3/4 corners, mostly in the top-right corner. Nothing too dramatic. Not even close to some horrible examples you can see online.
SOLUTION:
Step 1. Start the backlight bleed test on youtube and go full-screen.
Step 2. Find the backlight bleed source. How to find the source?
• Imagine BB like a flashlight. The light source and a less-bright area around it. The source is the screen point from where the light source comes out and disperse BB around, creating a big area of the screen with a brighter color tone. You should easily pinpoint these, as they are close to the edge.
Step 3. When you locate these, pinch the plastic frame RIGHT NEXT to the BB source. Pinch, as put the frame between your thumb and pointer finger and start applying the slightest pressure ever, and SLOWLY, throughout 5 seconds or more (so GRADUALLY) start increasing the pressure on the frame until you see BB is retracting. Once it's completely gone (so it looks like the normal screen section) you then HOLD that pressure for 3-5 seconds. Release.
Step 4. Repeat until it's gone. It's always a bit less noticeable upon each cycle.
It can take some time. So, whenever you can, turn on the backlight bleed test and make sweet love to it.
I find that holding part is the essential one, as it's like that the frame is "accepting" this new shape/position.
You will hear some slight cracking sounds. This means that the frame is simply not perfect, few millimetres bigger than the screen, so these are not perfect. Cracking means it's adjusting and fitting in those tiny joints or whatever.
The solution lies in correcting the frame - not the screen.
Let me know your results.
Hey van you make a Video when the Light is on to See the Technik With your Fingers please? That would be awsome!! ❤️❤️❤️
You reminded me - thanks. I wanted to do that for a while :D
Done! :)
@@riverhook That would be so awsome!! Thank you so much 😘
@@tenkai6664 You can find the link to it on this video's info card :)
@@riverhook i found it and watch IT Brother 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
It really worked!!! The trick is to slightly release the pressure, and to also find the right angle for the pressure points. Thank you so much!
I can confirm that this method absolutely works, thanks a ton mate! Btw you have to be extremely cautious not to touch and press on the display itself, for me a singe pixel went all green but then returned to normal again, but other than that, this is such an easy, foolproof method! Monitor: HP 27mx
Glad it worked. Mine is pitch-black now. Just repeat if it comes back. Maybe you can edit the comment and enter your model so people know? Thanks
BoZha My Monitor doesn’t have that plastic “clamp” going around its side, only the bottom, so that’s why it was a little more complicated for me ;)
I'd like to say that I've gotten to the point where I only have one VERY VERY VERRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY dull blacklight bleed spot. I bought a returned model of the Tuf Gaming VG249Q after someone thought their monitor was broken for backlight bleed. I ended up making it 99% flawless by doing the technique you shared with us. Now I have a 144hz 1ms monitor and only paid 150 dollars instead of nearly 300.
Great to hear that man! Thanks for sharing your results. Did you do exactly what I did?
@@riverhook Everything you mentioned
crazy.
@@rokai7317 You can get better results with a ruler
@@friendlyfriends5046 Was the backlight bleed prior to using the method anything major? how long did it take you to get rid of most of it?
I will try this, seems risk free unlike other methods. I have light bleed on one corner of my laptop, not too much , but noticiable when watching films with the horizontal black bars. Thanks !!
Yeah, it's not invasive, so the risks are lower. If you are like me - any kind and any amount of bb is definitely an issue!
pretty sure the horizontal black bars means it's a widescreen resolution
@@Flrere Right, thanks. Two points for you :D
It is true that bad assembly can cause this but it may not be bleed.
the IPS panel itself has pixel angle that projects color and light and reflects light brighter at different angles from center. The bezel itself may be pinching or loose or a combo of both. it may not be at all and it just may be the panel manufacture process. The panel on an IPS is not super tight, you may see it billow a bit even when using a microfiber cloth to clean it. It may move with the cloth so to speak. My XG270 does this. That itself changes the light refraction from ambiance. It may not be bleed at all.
If you see scenes in games where there's color and lighting and these areas are not washed out compared to center or overbright, then it's not bleed. You can test the same using other solid colors in full screen. My panel has a whitish look top and bottom left corner about 3" towards center and the right top and bottom has a golden glow 3" towards center in an all black screen or dark scenes in games. In a pure gray scale screen or full screen of any color, it's uniformed from all sides and corners.
In an all black full screen, you can pull the bezel away from the panel in one small area and it looks better, then in another pinch the bezel and it looks better. You'd have to do this across a few inches in the spots it looks uneven and would be impossible to get it right without taking the monitor apart, sealing the bezel, thus possibly making it worse upon assembly, or putting a wedge of paper between the bezel and panel to release the glow/bleed and then use something to pinch the panel closer to the bezel in another area. This alone can cause the seal to loosen in one spot over time with heat or tighten in the other. I've had only 2 IPS monitors be perfect in dark scenes, and that's a 75hz LG 27" IPS same model for both. Not a single flaw but it's not a gaming monitor at all, it's a workstation. Best either to return and play the lottery of buying, return, buying return or just ignore it. There is never one true method to eliminate this no matter what manufacturer you buy from.
I had some backlight bleed in the corners of my new Asus Rog Zephyrus G14 laptop and I didn't want to go through the hassle of returning and exchanging the laptop but the backlight bleed was annoying to look at considering I spent so much for this laptop so I tried your technique and it worked!!! Thanks for sharing this!!
Bro reply do u still have bleeding please reply u could save my time
Well that answers my question whether this could work on laptop ips screen so thanks! Asus tuf a15 user here, with minor bleeding along the lower edge but it's frustrating and I also didn't want to return since I really like this laptop; I can't wait to try this method out
@@JogiPiterAnd did it worked ?
So, bleed is caused by excessive pressure that can be reduced by more pressure?
It never used to be a problem. Manufacturers are making everything thinner with the knowledge that it creates planned obscellecence.
An extra 5cm depth on a monitor and an extra 2.5-5mm on a laptop screen isn't going to be a huge deal, you would hardly notice it except for when you first buy the item and think "wow its so thin" after that it's never an issue.
The most reliable TVs and monitors I've had have been really thick and heavy compared to what sells today. No back-light bleed and for an LCD 1080p TV no problems for failures over 12 years of constant use.
You're lucky if you get a functioning item out of the box these days and even then it rarely lasts much longer than the warranty.
exactly. planned obscellecence is bigger part of global warming than ppl know too
3:04 Tutorial starts. You're welcome.
i did notice it getting darker, thank you for the advice
man, didn't even believe this would work but i definitely see the difference after i did it multiple times, it actually worked, thanks for sharing this brother
Imagine if monitor manufacturers actually had a powerful clamp around the whote frame of their monitors that would 100 percent remove backlight bleed. That would be great......
Then screen cracked
Holy sheez. I dropped my laptop and my screen bled. And then I saw this. I closed the lid, pinched on all sides, and it's gone like magic!!! Thank you!!!
Great to hear it works in those situations as well! :D Thanks for the feedback
a million thanks to you man !!! thisone helped big time... my first ips touchscreen laptop (asus zenbook flip 15 ux563FD) and i was going to return it... your video and this "pressure and massage (not screen massage!) but the plastic border)) therapy helped my screen so much i could not even believe it... no need to return it anymore (so big change).... sory my bad english
Glad to hear that. Repeat this whenever you can and it will go away completely :)
Just got a ps5 and 65 inch LG tv with ips panel. Top left corner had a lot of bleed . Gaming was fine but movies with black bars were annoying to watch . To get it replaced during lockdown would be a nightmare .
Tried your way.
I’ll be damned this worked . My tv looks perfect now.
Ps. Also got the notorious pg279q but never had a a case of serious bleed there . I’ll try it there too.
Thanks again my dude
This method is a traditional one and works if done at regular intervals,but still applying pressure to any type of screen is not a good idea,better just to press the bezels near the screen,works the same way but better
Yes, the bazel/plastic frame is what you need to press. Not the screen!
Hi. I bought a new monitor without frame, and it has some BB. I tried for the first time to apply like a gentle massage across the edge, and I see a slightly improvement of BB. Thanks.
I can assure you guys that to avoid any BB or glow issues,just go and buy LG monitors.
Every brand other than LG is prone to this issue.
I have researched about this and this seems to be the case for some reason.
LG seems to distribute the glow evenly,so that it doesn't look like glow at all.
Glow can be present due to the technology of IPS displays but to make the glow uniform is a quality control thing.
Finding the glow or BB is a staple for all IPS panels.
The only way to avoid is to buy LG products.
Another thing that can be done is to take it to some expert engineer who is experienced in screen repairs and stuff.He can just even out the loose parts of the bezels that causes the glow to leak into the screen from the backlight.
Backlight bleed on a laptop screen makes for a little minigame that you can play when you're bored. The problem is that once you fix it, and then you close and open the laptop again, you're probably going to bend the panel just enough to introduce the bleeding again.
Exactly. It does disappear temporarily but comes back after i close and open the screen again. My laptop is brand new and still under warranty. Good amount of backlight is bleeding from bottom right corner. But if the problem's with the frame what's the point of replacing the screen...
@@FindMeInsanity my one too its just 15 days and dont know what to do plz help me
same. what to do ?
@@FindMeInsanity bro are u still using the same one with bleeding did it increase or remained the same or disappeared(not possible I think).I am waiting for your reply.
@@tonystark-xx4bt my lenovo is also bleeding but the company says its ips limitation so no warranty covered.
Man it solved my problem a lot. Thanks...
Great! Thanks for letting us know
Why this video has so many dislikes? Dude shared a method which worked for him and it has minimal risk. Just try, if it works for you as well, nice. if it doesn't, you at least tried. Why people dislikes a video like this is beyond my understanding. I wil try this myself today.
Haha, thanks for the support man! I'm surprised sometimes too, when I see some weird comments :D People are rude by default - don't spend your thoughts on them!
It is normal to happen, I'm happy I found this video. I'll try it later.
Thank you!
mate, I'm actually pretty excited about trying your method! Bought myself AOC c32g1, VA monitor, I've transited to this 32" giant from my 27" TN panel and I can't really even begin to tell how I enjoy the size and colours, they give me great level of immersions in games. But it has got quite horrible back-light bleeding in 6 (!) places - 3 at the top and 3 at the bottom! I mean, I don't actually see it until I play a very dark game (most horrors) with my room light turned off, but it looks horrendous on those pitch-black colours. I still can return it to the shop and change for another one, however i'm afraid to get something worse, even dead pixels maybe. I've noticed that yours is IPS so my apprehensions are whether it's gonna work on VA as well, but i'll give it a try
Hi man, glad to hear you got yourself a VA display :) I wanted to get one as well (one from Samsung CFG range) but it didn't have G-Sync, so I went for Asus PG279Q.
The colours should be much better on VA panel, and with a lot less backlight bleed as well! Not sure how severe are these? I know how irritating they can be - this is the main reason I started investigating what could be the cause. I knew it was mechanical, and therefore - fixable!
With my model it's pretty clear - even if I do change it, I can always end up in a loop of returned monitors. The quality control of these is pure crap. And yes - it's most likely you'll get the one somebody has returned.
But with VA, it shouldn't be that dramatic. I would try out my method (as it's 0 invasive, do not try anything else) for a few days - If you notice an improvement - go for it.
If not - Exchange it and you will most likely end up with a better one.
Mine is 100% completely backlight bleed free now. It can come back after a while, in terms of starting to reappear slightly (not even close as much as originally), as the frame has a tendency to go back to its original shape, but the solution is quite simple - just repeat the method again.
When I notice a lighter area (in pitch black games), I just pinch if once and it's gone again.
The frequency of these repeats will reduce... 10 days, 25 days, 2 month - until it's gone.
Let me know your results!
@@riverhook i've tried and unfortunately it hasn't improved the condition so far. Maybe it works somewhat different on VA panles or maybe I don't have simple bleeding but 'clouding' as well? I dunno. Also, my monitor is almost frameless (they are very thin, mayhap about 5 mm) so it feels as if I partly press on the frames and partly on the screen, but anyway, when I pinch it then only the nearest area to my finger becomes black, the rest still remains clouded. An addition, when I try to find a 'source' of light and pinch the frame at that place, it seems that the 'source' merely moves aside and remains nearby, it doesn't disappear. By the way, you don't need G-sync for Nvidia cards, it used to be like this at the very beginning, however Nvidia has long since added FreeSync support as well, you can even see in the setting of Nvidia in the newest update
@@boriskosulin4945 Hi Boris - Sad to hear that, but I can see how a frameless monitor can be a bit different. Reg freesync, I heard it's not working properly, a lot of stuttering, so didn't want to risk. My monitor is amazing, so that was a good choice, luckily!
@@riverhook Hello again! Just thought I'd leave a small update. I actually took a second monitor - the same model - to check, and those grey stain were on exactly same spots, moreover they even had the same shape, so I just returned it back and decided to stay with the 1st one. The size of it is very impressive and it was relatively cheap and there's no guarantee that other models wouldn't have the same issue, so I guess I'll just live with it. They are absolutely not visible until there are pitch-dark scenes in games. As for FreeSync, they used to have problems with Nvidia cards in the very beginning, but ever since Nvidia has started implementing it using software updates, it has actually improved greatly and works perfectly well with Nvidia cards. Of course it still may depend on a monitor - cheap monitors may have worse compatibility.
@@boriskosulin4945 Hi man, thanks for the update.
Feels bad! Sometimes the model is unfixable, which is a shame. If BB is always on the same spot, I bet this happened when it was assembled, the robots squeeze the frame too much, so it always end up like that.
I'd try to loosen the screws directly around it, to try to reduce the pressure and tightness. If these are tightly screwed, you can't really pinch it off. Do only a 1/6 of a turn, nothing dramatic that might endanger your warranty /monitor. Try pinching it a bit around the frame, just to see if there's any kind of change. If yes - do the screws. If not - nothing will help you.
Re Nvidia, yeah, it might work now, but I didn't want to take a risk, as I had GTX 1080 at the time I bought my monitor, it would be a shame to lose the sync :)
This does help a bit. I'll keep doing it from time to time and hopefully gradually fixes it.
Did u fixed it?
@@bubba5403 It helps a little, but there's only so much that it can fix.
From what I can tell, this helped quite a bit! Thank you :)
You're welcome:)
Hopefully this'll work on the steam deck. The backlight bleed on the steam deck is absolutely egregious
its worked? im in your same situation with my deck..
This really helped with my dell s2721dgf, had a bit of backlight bleed on the top left corner doing this for literally less then a minute really darkened the area, will report back with an edit when it becomes noticeable again :)
Always great to hear that :)
is it noticeable?
@@prizzeek yeah it doesn't work for long, thankfully its only really noticeable in a very dark room
can backlight bleed suddenly appear ? because i never noticed mine until yesterday . a small light from the right.
Hey man, thank you so much for this video, this means that i'm not the only one who has this issue.
I got an Samsung Odyssey G5 and i worked all the last summer for get it (for this i don't want to sell it back)
it's a miracle i found your video, i will try tomorrow and let you know.
PS: i'll try it but i'm kinda scared because the BB it's just like 5mm but in all the right side of the monitor... so i guess i'll have to pinch different spot... i'll let you know
HEY MANN, I just realized that maybe this issue went when the night (3 min after i turned off the screen) i heared the monitor like.. cracking. Wow, why people don't assemble monitor correctly, you spend money and work in that thing
Update: Hey Man, today i've done what you suggested but there is a problem, my monitor have 2 corners, one of plastic, and the other one i don't know if it's plastic too, but after this second corner there is the screen, so today i pinched in the first corner but nothing seems to happens, any suggestions?
So is it working?
I tray with my laptop and the problem was worst. I won´t recommended do this on a laptop´s screen.
Don't do drugs kids or you'll end up like this guy
Generous?
The screen is glued with tape, then compress it makes the tape to fix more, but this is temporary,
Ey man thanks a lot for the video.
I just purchased the 27" Asus Proart and I have the same problem but at the lower part, not the corner. How many times you have to do it? I dont see that solves the problem... I don't know how hard you have to press, for how long and how many times... I can see the liquids movement but the screen does not turn black.
Any ideas? I don't know if I should take the risk of send it back to amazon or what...
Thanks again
Thanks mate. This actually made things better on my lg nanocell tv
Hey, man. How did you do it? I mean, there's no frame around the display. Did you just press on the display border, the black buffer between the pixels and the frame? Thanks.
@@BrunoPeschiera Mine hast black plastic borders which can be pinched. At least at the top and the sides. The bottom is pretty hard
@@marco_prolo Oh, I see. That's cool. Thanks, man. Appreciate it.
Is not working for me in a curve samsung monitor, how much pressure do i have to apply?
hey, man i have screen bleeding in my laptop too .... can i do this with my laptop screen too?
please reply i need to know this
Thank you mate. LG 27GL650F-B 27
Bro is light bleed get increasing day by day?
Bcoz my tv has bleeding on edges...
Not really
I put the screen face down on the table and hit it from the back in all corners and in the middle, everything went and became normal, the reason is when I press the screen when cleaning
You sound like Uhtred from The last kingdom 😂
Haha, I had to google it :D Maybe a little mate :D
I was full sceptical, but this actually helped me. Holy shit, thanks!
Great to hear that :) I know, I didn't see this method anywhere else, so I had to make a video...In the end, it makes more sense than to insert some crap there
That worked for me aswell, thanks!
what about the bottom parts? do I need to squezz the bottom edge of the frame or the top part which is close to the panel?
So I just spent $479 on this monitor and now I will have problems smh.. when it comes on Friday.. u know how to fix it? I bought Asus tug vg27b-a
Bro how to identify that it’s blacklight bleed or ips glow?
In this vid the blue glow in the left upper and bottom corner of the screen...is that ips glow or blacklight bleed?
If you used sound, you should have been able to hear how :D IPS glow is less bright and if you move your head around, it changes from 0 to being visible and being visible a lot. The bleed is always there.
I have a samsung tv 55" 4K and I'm getting like a Blueish bleed along both sides of the tv. Nowhere else. How can I fix it?
Thank you men got know about my tab that insted of scrren bleeding it was my frame which popped out
Bro there is not even major bleed its quite good bro
Hi , I just purchased a Samsung TU8570 TV and while running the backlight bleed test video on youtube the TV seems off. But when i use remote to see the description text about the video, i see a little bit of greyish backlight bleed. Is it normal ?
This is the IPS glow probably, so yes. Try changing your viewing angle and see if it changes. If yes - IPS glow. If not - BB.
Thanks , glow changes while moving.
@@t0am1tvats You're good then :)
it actually works, thanks man.
Awesome!! This works man!!!! Thank you so much.
I bout this new massive 75UQ81006LB TV and LG officially reply that TV is fine despite I shared proof of images. They said it’s called cloud effect.
I tried your method and it actually works not completely as u mention but still it’s better than nothing ❤
I don't know if that is safe, but it helped!! 😄 Not totally, but a lot better!
Thanks for the feedback. Now just repeat the process until it's all gone!
@@riverhook Not helping anymore 😄
It only goes away for as long as I hold it. Maybe some monitors are just built different and don't mold into the new place as easily. :{
@@CuddleCakez Just repeat the process and hold for longer:)
Had one. Terrible. You always have to consciously reorient it whenever you move back to the mouse. Something like this needs to be attached to the mouse IMO.
Hey thanks man this kind of works. It comes back every other day but it is easy to fix within 3 minutes. I was planning on returning it but since this work i will gladly keep it. I didn't here a sound so is that bad. I can also see the bleeding but it's really way less noticeable and can this damage my screen?
Hey man, I'm glad to hear that.
Returning the unit is a good option (if your store provides it) but you can never know what you gonna get. In my opinion, you'll get a unit that was returned by someone else etc. So it's a gamble.
Regarding the sound, my frame cracks sometimes, sometimes not. The frame is the problem and it's a bit badly manufactured, so it's cracking because it's not fitting together perfectly. This method is 20x less damaging than all other methods - but I am just a customer who tried and discovered it - be careful.
@@riverhook thanks this is the 3rd time returning it and this one has least bleeding
@@jojomartfanhaha8033Oh, it will come back occasionally, so you only need to squeeze it back again. Each time the amount of BB decreases. After a while, the periods without it will increase and at one point it will no longer be needed to readjust it.
I think the plastic has the tendency to go to the "original" state, so you need to pinch it as much it needs so it "reshapes" into what we want.
@@riverhook thanks for the help!
Hi! I have a Lenovo Q27H Edgeless monitor with couple of BBs in the top and bottom. I'm still getting confused on how "pinch" works. Did you press the little black border on the screen? Or did you press the frame against the screen? Where should I put pressure? Can you elaborate? Thank you!
You have a separate pinch video linked
I got a new monitor yesterday and bottom left there is some bleed. I pressed slightly near the frame of the backlight bleed and the bleed reduced, but I did not know if it was the right thing to do or if I need to do repeatedly. I'll try more.
Hi! I found your video about the backlight bleed. I\m trying to do the same. How many times did you have to press on the frame to get it away?
Many times - you should hear some crackling sound when the frame adjust its position. After it's like 95% gone, it can come back sometimes, then you just press it again... Now I have 99% of my bb removed, and every 10 days or so around 5% gets back right at the source, then I pinch it for 1 sec and it's gone again. I hear a click every time. The frame doesn't fit in nicely, and that's the whole problem...
@@riverhook i can definitely see an improvement in my case as well...i don\t however hear any crackling sound though...am i doing it wrong?
@@crazywasy That's a great sign! That means it's fixable. Regarding the sound, try pinching it and then roll it between your fingers 1mm, like you're rolling a hair between your fingers. Just go slowly and do it each day for a couple of times, pressuring the frame right next to the brightest screen parts aka the light sources. I've managed to completely remove it, so it is possible. Let me know how it goes
I pressed like 50 times but it's gone now.
Yeah, it can take a while - but glad it worked! Mine is gone completely now
And what about if the BB is in the middle of a tv screen? Should I apply the pressure on that spot?
Try it out, it cannot hurt. It might be some other issue though
I bought a laptop msi gl65 it has some light bleed I went to the store looking for replacement they said its normal and won't replace .. is it normal ? And is it gonna be worse over time ? Can I try your method on it ?
i bought the same msi gl65 today. And yes it has screen bleeding too. I asked some friends who had the same model as mine he said he had the same problem as mine. even if u replace it the back light bleed won't go unfortunately. Laptops are made that way I guess
@@Coachizz-rf1kw I think guys it is normal, I also have an ROG laptop and has the same problem, I already went to the service center for them to check up but they said it was just normal
Confirmed!! big thanks bro
Oh thanks bro, but will this hurt or damage the monitor and can I just try to loosed the screws holding the panel?
Hey man, you're welcome. Hope that my method will help.
Regarding the method, I doubt that this can hurt your panel in any way since all you are doing is pinching the plastic part, so you cannot over-pinch it etc. Of course, don't do anything stupid like squeezing it with all your strength. You'll see - nothing dramatic is necessary.
You just need to squeeze it until the bright part becomes as dark as it should be. When that point is reached, hold the squeeze for a few seconds and then release. Then repeat this process until it's completely gone. Repeat when/if it appears again after a while until it's gone.
Unscrewing, flexing, massaging or inserting anything around the panel will most likely damage it.
Don't do that - ignore those stupid comments.
I refuse to believe that we need to do something like that in order to get what we've paid for.
oh i see thanks alot bro actually very helpful.
NVM gentle rubbing does reduce it but it's not possible to completely remove it.. the light,.. since you technically need that LOL. it's not easy for them to fix that. since no monitor are perfect.... LED backlit monitors... probably the adhesive of the monitors aren't enough to contain the light
Sweet baby Jesus in his manger. I managed to remove 95% of the bleed with this method. Ill test again tomorrow to see if it comes back (hopefully it won't)
Good to hear this :) It will probably come back - but just repeat the process and the amount and frequency of BB coming back will rapidly decrease over time.
At this moment I'm totally free of it and it's not coming back at all - not even briefly.
Let me know your results,
Did it come back
ant 95% gone. Awesome.
@@calotono Awesome. Keep on doing it until it's completely gone. It will get back from time to time a few more times...
@@riverhook why they cant perm fix this in a factory though? Whats the deal
Somewhat works on the steam deck thanks for the video!
But it still has bleeding! 🙄
bro you made my day wow!! it worked your awesome thank you!! :)
Great to hear that :) there's nothing better than fixing it on a new monitor :)
My Philips TV is having a light bleed on tje corners more than it did months ago...
My bb is not as bad but it is annoying, but I am worried I might make it worst if do this especially since it's my mom's laptop
Thank you for the video, just got mine yesterday, and sadly there are noticable bleeds on the right side of the screen. Will try your method tonight. Just wondering, Is this video taken with the screen at maximum or minimum brightness? I find the bleeds to be less noticable at minimum brightness on my monitor.
Thanks!
Good for you mate! The monitor is fantastic. Please let me know how did it go.
I've used the calibration settings found here - www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/icc_profiles.htm. The value is maximum - 100.
The bleed comes from the backlight (the brightness source in a way), so it is expected to be reduced by lowering the brightness level - but I don't see a point darkening it to the max. Fuck that. BTW 100 brightness is not as bright as one might think.
One more note - As you "learned" from my vid, the BB does come back after a while, and you then need to just randomly pinch it again for 3 seconds and it stays good for a while. Well - at this moment, it doesn't come back for me at all.
This is how it looks now: prntscr.com/om6gqw
So after a while - it's only getting better. I'm BB free for more than 2 months now.
Does the screen bleeding increase with time?
In laptop screen
is this applicable to tablet or smartphone devices too?
Hey there! :>
I recently bought a PHILIPS 55PUS8503 that was the last on the shelf at the store...

Hey man, I'm not sure really. I don't have any experience with aluminium frames :( Try this?
Is it backlight bleed if it is only in one small specific spot and if so, how would you get rid of it on a Nintendo switch
Backlight bleed usually start from the edge towards the mid. Maybe if you have a picture? Not sure how could you do that on it, try the same method.

Do you want to know, what really helps, if you get a bad one from the panel lottery???
1. Search one shop, where you can buy this monitor, where the monitor is on stock "green" and can pay via "purchase on invoice"!
2. Then order 2-3 of this model and keep the one that have the best picture or with other words, the "one" that have the fewest halos!
3. That works for me. I got the XG32VQR and the first one had horrible halos. The second one was little bit better but not good enough so one corner where he bleeds!
4. So all good things are 3!!! Yeah finally get a "good" one. Only the lower left corner with just a little bit bleeding, but only see it, if you have a full blak screen, where you can see the whole black picture!
Of course I am. I came back from the past to solve high-end monitor problems!
@@riverhook hrhr xD!!! That's exactly, what i thought about you!
@@sirbolzenwerfer5069 :D I refuse to accept that we have to have a fucking strategy when we decide to give 850+ euros for a monitor. I want to order, plug in and enjoy. I got really nervous when I saw my bb and had to do something with it - luckily I've found a safe way.
Hey BoZha, I've done that to my monitor before seeing your video and it work like a charm. It's very nice that we came to the same method based on our intuition.
Anyway, I did several other methods the same day (credit card, massage) and noticed the improvement just on the other day, I wasn't sure what got the job done.
Now that i saw your video, I'm pretty sure that it was the pinching.
I am very grateful for your vídeo and I am certainly that a lot of people will be too.
Glad to hear that - and thank you!
Is this method applicable on a IPS panel bcs i have a new 65" panel that has same problem ??
@@Listentothefactsyeah, I did that on a IPS panel.
I have a spot of backlight bleed on the side of my Asus monitor. I ordered a replacement, but it was much worse so I just decided to deal with it on this one. Especially as it has no dead pixels to speak of. One of these I'm going to make another attempt at massaging the screen to try to get it to lessen.
Yeah, returning it is a gamble. You just end up with a unit which was returned by someone else. Just make sure to ignore all invasive methods out there. I wouldn't try massaging it, as well. My attempt ended up with increasing the area. Try my method first.
fax man i returned a monitor because it had one stuck dead pixel with not that many backlight bleed so i returned it. When i got my new replacement it came with no dead pixels but the black light bleed is even worse. Im tired of dealing with these monitors, it’s a never ending cycle
Hi. Thanks very much for your video. I just bought an Asus Zenbook 14 UM433DA and the machine is beautiful and the panel is really good for the money that cost. Yet, there is a little BB in the right corner of the screen. It's almost nothing, but do you think your method will work in my laptop? Did you hear anyone doing it in a laptop screen? Thanks and gretting
Hi - You're welcome. Yes, I know the feeling. The same applies to my monitor PG279Q, it's an amazing panel, yet a bit troubling with bb. I expected that before even buying one.
I am not 100% sure if anybody had success with laptops, I only tried this on my own unit, so I am not sure about any other monitor out there.
What I'm really curious to know (because I got similar questions), and please don't get me wrong, I totally do not mind any questions, but as it's probably faster to do it than to ask me this - Why do you even ask first? :D Aren't you curious to test it out? :D I remember when I saw my BB - I immediately started to dwell on how to get rid of it. You only need like 10 sec to try it out. It should get better when you press the frame. If it's 100% the same when you pinch it - It might be impossible.
It's just that this is 100% non-invasive, it's like cleaning your monitor. What is the worst thing that can happen? BB staying the same?
Whatever you do - Do not try anything invasive. People share really dumb methods (because they probably don't care if they screw their monitors that much) that can worsen things up for you.
Thanks BoZha. I just bought the pc two days ago and I make a big effort to buy the more powerful and better pc I can afford, yet still pretty good I think. But, yet I was desapointed when I saw that little BB in the Zenbook. I have the warranty but I need to send it by postmail to other country to get a new one or to replace the screen. It's to much a mess have to do that. I would like to avoid send the laptop.
Also, I would like to know if someone else try that laptop with ryzen 7 and see if maybe they have any problems with it.
I have got backlight bleed on my tablet ..... It was under warrenty so I sent it for a screen replacement even after that the problem persisted so I sent it for a repair again , no change in the screen bleeding what should I do??
You can try my method - if this doesn't help, I'm afraid you might be stuck with a bad unit.
@@riverhook I tried using your method gets okay for the while I m pinching it but then regains it previous state
@@eddie_megaglitch4211 Just hold it for a while in that "perfect" position and repeat the whole process. Eventually, it will just stick to that position.
Hello there, I know it's a fairly old video but maybe someone will help me😂 with those - does this tip works with laptop ips screen maybe? Plastic frame of Asus tuf 2023 laptop to be exact
Nobody knows man! You can try. It won't hurt your screen!
Hi there. Maybe I pressed too hard so another bleed occurred beside the current bleed point. Is there any way to recover?
lol same just happened
I have a laptop and the screen bleeding is normal but when I open and close the hinge I can see the temporary screen bleed where I apply pressure to open and close the laptop. Is that normal?
This is exactly what the issue is. Pressure makes the light go through. If you are fine in general, when it's open, don't think about it.
@@riverhook yeah, this might not work on laptops unfortunately as we always open and close the lid and will always put pressure on the frame, causing it to distort the panel again
Ничего не понял. Куда давить рамку, вниз? Вверх? Сжимать ее пальцами?
People complain about IPS Glow but it literally happens with every IPS Screen. It is not really considered a defect. But Back-light Bleed is definitely a defect and is annoying as hell.
Yes, it is important not to worry about the glow
Why does it happen tho?
@@Blinx777 ips glow is kind of like the side effect for using ips panels for the screen, and there's no way to really avoid it fully. Backlight bleeding is just what the name says, it is the screens backlight, which is what lights up the image, bleelind from the edges of the screen as a result of poor manufacturing/cheap materials. It kinda works the same as shining a flashlight down your screen, except it's just the backlight of your screen. There's multiple reasons for it to happen, but usually the main problem is the cheap manufacturing materials used, and the lack of qualiy control. It's annoying as hell
@@saanakristiina2667 damn ya because I have a ailenware and I would think that wouldn't be an issue but I was wrong.
@@Blinx777 yeah you could literally buy a 1000 euro monitor and it would still most likely have backlight bleed and awful ips glow
I tried your method on brand new hp 24f monitor and completely screwed up! was about to return it but thought maybe this will fix and with just a little press it instantly cracked that area.. Maybe because this monitor comes with no bazel at all or maybe some led behind that pressing area caused it.. and since this damage isn't covered in warranty and local HP guy told repair isn't possible, i screwed up bad...
Hi man - how do you mean "cracked"? Like the screen cracked? :O Gimme a photo please!
If yes - WOOOOW that sounds like a disaster unit! That shouldn't happen at all. How are you supposed to clean it?
If something else happened - Why would you say to them what you did? You could've pretended you got it like that.
Anyway - if there is no bezel at all, so it's just the screen there, that means that there is no frame I was talking about. I wouldn't touch the screen part if I were you - only the plastic part.
This method is least invasive, do not try any other retarded methods out there, you might screw it up completely.
@@riverhook This was my first of its kind monitor actually, i was suspicious about durability already and specially touching top area but for "cool looks" brought it anyway, lol. and out of curiosity, i got retarded for a sec and pressed it.. only gentle press and *cracks*. I was surprised myself how fragile this thing was and any little bump in future could've done it.. Anyhow, it was a good experience about purchasing right monitor. :D

Wait... this is the crack? prntscr.com/r6xdyc
This should not happen.
Also, it says "Ultra-durable" :DD
Dayuuum. Thanks for sharing your experience!
We are definitely scammed a lot and there shouldn't be any issues like this for our money
@@riverhook Should not but it happened.. :( Its day 3 and im still in shock how did this happened.. My 5yr old monitor and laptop has suffered far more abuse and still alright.
thanks a lot
Is that backlight bleed is normal
Does this work with IPS glow?
I have an lenevo 27 inch screen and its way too bleed on the top edges
Not sure. Try my method, if there's too much of it, it might be faulty.
good, will do it soon to my laptop screen
does this work on laptops as well?
Try it out, will not hurt
Can this work on predator xb271hu?
can someone share if after doing this the bleeding returned or will it go forever?I want a new monitor but now I'm super scared of buying something that will have this issue 😢
I have removed it completely and has 0 now. I've got some other comments too. However, no one can predict how much or how will the backlight bleed "behave" on your particular unit. If you have a nice return policy in your shop, you should definitely return a very bad unit, get a decent one and then apply the technique,
@@riverhook thanks for the amazing vide, it helped to differentiate between backlight bleeding, and normal backlight which is part of the technology, I will try this if the case comes, I was almost buying a TUF Asus monitor 27 inches 1440P but then I realized I need something that makes the 4080 more useful in terms of visuals, thanks and many thanks
You're welcome. IPS cannot be beaten in terms of quality, so good choice!
it work 70% nice
I mean damn is it really that difficult for these manufacturers to just apply a little more glue in the factory to really seal everything together? Or heck just run a seal around the inside of the panel to prevent backlight bleed. There's so many simple solutions that could be done. These manufacturers are getting lazy.
Somebody out there assembles 50 of these each day, and they simply do not have the time/mind power to really focus.
Ur back light bleeding isnt that bad i just got a big white spot its like paper white
Well, it was worse than this...but not too dramatic like that!
Just find a soft cloth and massage the panel as gently as possible and you'll be just fine
Sadly i cannot do that, the border is smaller than mi finger lamo
take a cloth, pressure the screen gently and press the frame from the behind, see it will help
