How can so many of these screens have that?my replacement had it too.
That's strange. What is that? Baffles me how it can leave the factory like that, unless it's something that has happened in transit, a knock or something that has cause internal damage of some sort maybe?
The fear I have of returning my Samsung because of that little blemish on the right hand side (it's like there's too much pressure on that exact part of the bezel like when u press ur finger against the screen) is that I'll get one back with other, worse problems. And honestly in day to day use I don't even notice it. This one is definitely a keeper.
I was hanging on for the Dell. Indeed, I'd been waiting patiently since the LG 34UM95 came out. There were rumblings all through 2014 of Dell bringing out a 34" 3440x1440 monitor (and the model name was even leaked well in advance iirc). I've had my 2405FPW for 10 years and it's still going strong (it's now in full-time portrait mode beside the Samsung) but I just didn't like the look of the issues with the Dell.
The monitor itself looks great, I can't emphasise how much I love the idea of an integrated KVM switch, and it's much better looking than the Samsung (the stand in particular). I do like Dell's styling on their monitors, it's no-nonsense and not flashy.
In the end I decided that the Samsung was the safer bet (at least of this generation and I wanted something now) and I've not been disappointed so far.
How much backlight bleed is acceptable? I have a very thin streak in the bottom right hand corner of my screen. How can I show a screenshot of this?
I find the styling of Dell monitors very boring and I think they look cheap.
Dell = generic office styling from a decade ago.
The Samsung looks miles better to me.

What exact backgrounds are you seeing this on? If you have a link of a test image online we could compare, then post it here.
That photo was taken with a brightness of 35. But in all honesty I don't care too much about it. I just wanted to gauge what other people think. During the day when I use higher brightness its definitely visible in darker areas of games, but since its in the corner I have to really go looking for it.
Even if I were to return it there's no guarantee the next one would be free of this completely, it might even be worse.
i notice a glow at the bottom of the screen if im sat too close looking down on it, i found raising the monitor height and tilting back slightly sorts it out
Your right it does depend on the angle you view it from.
