LG OLED55E7 TV owners - Is your screen leaning back slightly?

Only just really noticed, but my screen is leaning back slightly. ie: The top of the screen is probably about 1-2cm back compared to the bottom of the screen.

Now this is only minor, so minor I've only recently just noticed it. But, now I've noticed it I can't un-notice it - It's next to a cupboard for example, so I now can't stop noticing the TVs edge is untrue compared to the cupboard

I had a quick play this morning, and simply by putting a drinks coaster under the rear of the stand, that basically sorts out the problem, and makes the screen nigh on vertical. And no doubt something along these lines.

I'm just wondering if this minor leaning back is by design, or just an issue on mine.

Is it not by design? If you look at the Sony QLED that has some serious lean on it.

The B7 leans back slightly, pretty sure the C7 does as well when I've seen them in store. I'm not certain but I think all of them are designed like that.

Possible/probably... Just ensuring there's not an issue with my stand/TV really.

Yes, the lean back on the Sony one is horrid IMHO, and put me off buying it.

Handy to know... I assume then like mine, it's a tiny lean back of just 1-2cm at the top (compared to the bottom)?

Personally I'd prefer it to be perfectly vertical if only to reduce dust on the screen, and so it looks in line with other vertical lines next to it etc. So I'll probably end up putting something as thick as a drinks coaster at the rear of my stand to pitch the TV forwards just enough to make the screen vertical
