Hey guys!

Was proper hyped for this monitor as soon as i saw it on sale for last weeks sale so immediately put a pre-order on. Mine arrived today, as well as a few other here on the forum.

Mine seems to have a very bright IPS glow spot on the bottom left corner. Is this an acceptable amount of glow? First night with it so i'll see how i get on but it was noticeable even during today's bright day when i set it up initially ( using chrome dark mode mainly and explorer dark mode )

How is everyone else units from this batch sent out late june?
 
Yeah i've turned the brightness down a bunch, will turn it down more maybe to 35ish which is what i had on my old Acer TN panel , otherwise white webpages make my eye melt :D:D so far so good though! loving this thing!
 
If I buy the monitor I might get one thats been returned for this issue, if I do how long can I try it out for before returning it if it's too bad. A couple of days is all I would need to test it so would they take it back?

I'm sure their policy says 14 days from day of delivery to RMA and 30 days for a refund i think. to be honest in games and most content with my brightness at 55% i couldn't notice the glow, lowered it to 45% and even less noticeable even in dark scenes and the display is still plenty bright.
