24" IMac Brightness issue?

[Joe T]

Hi all

I have been reading on a couple of Mac forums about an issue with the brightness of the current 24" IMacs. It seems that the right hand side is quite a bit dimmer than the left hand side of the screen.

I couldnt find any threads on this problem on here, but has anyone experienced this on here?

Thanks

I can see this been an issue with reflections from the glossy screen to be honest.

i had read about this before i got my iMac and on some of the 24" displays i saw in the apple shop it was clearly present, I got the 20" which didnt seem to be as affected by it although i have one issue with them both the screen colours are awful the iMac color profile is just too bright, when compared to my pc displays so i need to calibrate it

Brightness on my new 24" 2.8 Extreme seems fine, very even illumination

I do agree though, out of the box it does seem TOO bright, dab it down to 90% until you calibrate it if its bugging you.

I calibrated a mates iMac with a Huey Pro, made it awesomely better! I recommend it!
