Hi,
I have just received my Asus TF today, and I absolutely love it!
However I have just noticed that in the middle of the screen @ the very bottom the light is slightly bleeding out (ie there is a lighter spot on the black bar).
Its just right above the docking point.
Is this a common issue / design, or is mine faulty?
Sorry, its probably a completely stupid question, but I just want to figure out if I should be asking for a new one....
It's a common issue, you're not alone.
Some of us have returned TF's with light bleed, while others accept it.
If you just have one section at the bottom, keep it. Mine had four different areas of bleed.
I have light bleeding but only noticeable when showing pure full screen black picture in a dark room. So its not really a big deal for me ( I guess nothing is perfect). However, I wonder if others have worse.
I have some light bleed at the bottom of my screen in 3 different areas. Its not too bad and i can only see it on a black screen. Its better ecer since i put the sceen on auto brightness
this problem will exist with LG ips screen. :O
Got my replacement from BestBuy today, Original had one bad light bleed and 3 smaller ones. Also had a dead pixel in the middle of the screen.
New one has small light bleed in lower corner, hardly noticeable and no dead pixels.
Now I just need to pick a ROM to put on ;-)

No. No it will not. LG IPS panels do not even have backlights; not inherently, anyway.
I hate when people blame light bleed on IPS. It's not the IPS technology, it's the poor quality edge-lighting

Then it's LG's messed up edge-lit lighting.

Yes, that's probably true. Asus might be responsible for the backlight, or they may have bought it from yet another third party, but it's probably LG's.
Mine has very small ribboning of light at the bottom of the screen, would have never noticed in normal use. I checked my Ipad that I have had for a year and its exactly the same and in the same place, never noticed till I looked for it. Possibly all tablets have LB to some extent if its not noticible in every day use its only a problem if it bothers you looking at a black screen in a dark room

Not all tablets have lightbleed.
Most do, though, because of the form factor basically requiring edge-lit backlights, which are very tempermental
I just received mine yesterday & don't seem to have any light bleed. That is unless I don't know what I am looking for.
My only real issue seems to be with the power button. I have to push it 2 or 3 time for my transformer to wake up.
I have the same issue, 2 spots at the top of the screen. I don't think I ever see it though unless the display is entirely black or at least very dark. If it were much worse I'd consider getting a replacement, however from what I've read on the subject it doesn't seem to get (significantly) worse over time under normal conditions, however excess strain may worsen the effect. Thankfully the TF101 seems pretty solid so I don't think its going to be much of an issue.
Mine has it in about three or four places too, I don't really care about it though.
Sadly I just noticed two spots in the middle of my screen that are white. I do not think it is light bleed but I have already issued a RMA with NCIX on this.
I noticed that it is an issue on Amazon as well....according to this review.
http://www.amazon.com/review/R21G1E2O7DUE83/ref=cm_srch_res_rtr_alt_1
Dammit.
Ah well. Will RMA it and if that fails will get a refund and get a Acer Iconia instead.

Hi,
When I dispay a black background color on my X1 for example the pannel screen while it is switching to a different pannel or standard pannel I see a bit of light leakage on the top 2 corners of the screen from each side. A bit white, if you understand what i mean.
Does anyone notice that?
Thanks for the info
Yep I notice it too. Probably a case of bad backlight LED placement.
This screen doesn't seem to have as good a contrast ratio (black levels) as the one on the Touch Pro.
it's rather massive. Its even visible on camera mode when you have wide-mode off.
I hate living with imperfection.
How bad is it on your device?
I have to say its not visible when other colors than black are displayed
I'm probably seeing the same thing as you are - two bright areas on the top/left edge of the display.
The light is "leaking" because the display contrast isn't high enough and the screen assembly is a bit thin.
It's something I can live with, but I do wish SE had sourced for a better display. HTC has raised the bar since Diamond and Raphael, and this one is pretty good for a Windows Mobile device, but there are tons of even better screens out there - think Japanese super-keitais.
humm.. I was trying to look for the light leakage but I can't really seem to see it.... perhaps you could post some photos of what it actually looks like?
yup, it's there
don't see any leakage on mine...
I tried one in the shop and the screen was tilting left a little bit. Also the flip was a bit loose even in closed. Any comfirmation?
I'm pretty sure all devices have the same leakage problem. Just put on a pure black screen and look for the white cones decending from the top corners.
It's because of the led's behind the screen I guess
honestly, there's very little (leakage, short of better term) if not none. If you have seen TouchPro, it leaks like crazy...
Leakage is pretty terrible, no doubt about it. Wonder if this fault is only on some handsets?

My TP don't have this at all. Virtually no leakage. Pretty much solid black even in pitch black environment. Contrast and viewing angles are excellent. One of the best if not the best screen I've seen to date. Seems like they're using 8 bit panel instead of 6 bit TN panel. The latter have terrible contrast and viewing angle as standard.
lucky if u only seen it on top corners, mine are on all corners!
i don't see any leakage... went into a pitch black room and pressed the panel button and i see no white light coming out of the corners...

then you must have a rare TP, all the TP owners in Singapore reported to have the same leakage. that's if we are talking about the same thing with regards to light leakage...
Hi,
2 days ago a friend of me and me bougt this moblie,
yesterday i gave it back to the store, cause i've seen the white
leakage on my display too, on the devise of my friend its ok.
today I'll get a new one. Hope its ok there....
Thought it was damage or so....

Maybe I'm missing the point here. Do you mind posting a screen shot of the issue so we can be on the same boat? Now you've got me curious.
I'll try and post a photo when I get home later, mine is mainly in the bottom left half of the screen and it's really noticeable and distracting when viewing something dark.
Hmmm, I've definitely noticed leakage on my xperia, in the bottom left hand corner when in landscape.
I had a Touch Pro for a few weeks before I got the xperia, and the screen on that was flawless. I might give vodafone a ring and see if I can get it replaced...
Don't forget to switch the display brightness to full to be able to observe the leakage. When I watch the Bond trailer I can definitely see the leakage on the top corners when there is a black background in the beginning. It's rather distrubing but I do believe that all devices have that in some sort of extent. I think you just have to get used to it and live with it.
I was looking at some videos online of the TF yesterday and I noticed that most of the people that have the dock close it from the top of the tablet. Being that the dock only holds to the bottom of the tab, is it possible that the chassis is getting stressed causing light bleed? I know there are people out there that dont have the light bleed issue. I am wondering if those people use the keyboard dock or not.
Just a theory
I have light bleed from the right-middle side of the display. It was like this out of the box. No dock (yet.)
I have 7 (seven) light bleeds 2 on the left hand side, one in left top corner, 3 on the bottom and one in the middle on the right hand side, no doc but i've noticed that when you twist the tablet slightly the bleeds getting brighter and stay this way for some time so there may be something in yours theory
My theory is that Asus had to cut lots of corners to get the TF to as cheap as it is and the bleeding and cheapo plastic casing is a consequence of this. :/
Actually, I think it's related to the IPS screens, because the iPad/iPad 2 have had similar light bleeding.
When I dock the tablet, the light bleed becomes more apparent. Yes, the pressure does something, but it can't be fixed either way.
Just FYI. A lot of LED LCD Samsung TV users have noticed bleeding from the sides of those TVs and have fixed or helped the situation by relaxing the chassis screws in those areas.
You can search for more info about it at the AVS forums.

I have noticed this as well... all of the bleeding on mine seems to be more obvious when it has been docked and in use for a period of time. I was going to ask the question to everyone else (if they were also having that experience). I guess I don't need to now.
I've had light bleed from day one and don't have a dock.
Finally decided to test this light bleed thing. Max brightness in complete darkness showed no lightbleed. So, it's not chronic to every unit.

just did the same. full brightness in a dark room. no light bleed. guess i just got lucky [knock on wood]
I finally got a TF and the Dock. I used it for about three weeks without the dock and th light bleed slowly started showing up I haven't noticed more or less light bleed when in the dock but I have notice that it is most noticable at the bottom right corner and I happen to be right handed.
I don't know if there is any weight to my original dock theory but the light bleed has deff gotten worse in the last couple weeks
This is the second transformer I have purchased, received directly from amazon not even a reseller... This one the box has nasty finger smudges all over it and looks as if the box had been opened... but
Anyways... The issue being with this one is that (4) of the backlights are visable at all screen brightnesses. I did not have this issue on the other one I had (screen was flickering like short in the unit somewhere, so decided to return and order new one seeing as it would be faster then RMA)
Not sure if this is normal or if this is another reason to return this device as it seems like quality control seems to be an issue with this product.
Just seems annoying that is what I focus on all the time and not sure if this is normal or if I got yet another defective unit...
Please let me know if yours looks like this otherwise I believe I am returning this one and ordering another. This is unacceptable to me.
I just recieved another transformer from amazon today too. I sent the other one back and purchased this one. Both of the transformers have the same light bleeding like what you have. The one i just recieved today has a lil more light bleeding than the one i sent back. I'm keeping this one. Not going to send it back anymore.
That looks pretty bad. I have some backlight bleeding, but I have to go out of my way to see it (max out the brightness in a dark room).
Here is a picture of mine. And this is basically the worst possible combinations of maximum brightness, completely dark room, and solid black wallpaper.
The light bleed is only a little noticeable on the lower left side and maybe a bit in the upper right. But what is annoying me is if you look closely there is a small light color blotch in the middle lower area of the screen. Argh!
This is the second Transformer I had and the second one with some really odd screen defect.
already requested to ship back to amazon... this sucks!!! but when trying to watch a movie the bleed is horrible.
I wish my original one from walmart didn't have a short in the screen (as you moved it the screen would turn on and off) because that one was otherwise perfect 100% no screen bleeding even on 100% brightness!

I'd return that. That looks horrid. You pay for something and expect to be flawless. Now I mean if this was on display and someone tried to sell you it, you wouldn't have bought it if it came with that flaw now would you.
Yeah, I'm going to return mine. I bought it from a local Fry's Electronics and I got about 10 more days left to do the return. And they don't have anything in stock to exchange with.
I'm still struggling with if I want to exchange or get a refund and buy something else instead. Need a few more days to think it over (and maybe a look at a few more Galaxy Tab 10.1 reviews).

Nothing will be 100% problem free... just look at the ipad 2 screen issues... the transformer and its dock are a 1, 2 punch... and they said for any future transformer line the keyboard dock will fit, thats a +

I understand. But it seems like my odds of getting a defect free tablet may be higher with some manufactures than others.
My iPad was perfectly fine, first try. I've had two Xooms, both were perfect pieces of hardware (just too heavy and too expensive). My luck hasn't been as good with ASUS though.
Problem is both of the tablets I want seem to have manufacturing problems. I like the Galaxy Tab 10.1 too (though the lack of micro SD is why I bought the Transformer). But even Samsung seems to be having manufacturing problems with theirs too. Seems like far too many Google IO owners have their glass popping out of their bezel. Ugh. And it's looking like the production Wifi model has this issue too.
Well i deliberately wasnt lookig for issues and i can say the bleed is worse on the tf than my ipad 2. Also, of all sites, this forum craaaaaawls on it. Laggy as hell
XDA seems to really hate Android browsers. Haha. Opera Mini works MUCH better here though.
I thought I'd post a sample of the light bleed vs iPad 2. Both at 100% which frankly I'd never use this dark. However, the other shot is 50%.
I kept them small rather than two megs each. IMHO neither is acceptable at the price point. The tf changes with pressure the iPad 2 doesn't. The transformer is worse.
I have bad luck with screens. Also there are about ten stuck pixels seen on a black screen, I'm sure more if I run the color range.
Would you keep it? Don't think I will be. :/ and the iPad is getting exchanged.
O.K. mine issues:
Light bleeds on bottom right and right side of screen (on bottom left there is not such bleed as on picture this is kind of photo rendering issue)
http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/7805/32268220.jpg
Two defective spots of pixels on dark screen only
http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/3120/22912128.jpg
Zoomed defective pixels..
http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/7434/72512206.jpg
But I notice this in only %1 in my daily use, because I am not using it in dark room on dark screen at full brightness
What bothers me more is speaker disbalance (right is normal left is only 30% as loud as right). But if I have to wait for RMA I won`t take it to RMA because I just love it too much and don`t want to wait for stupid RMA.. Maybe I will give it to RMA after 23 months (in Lithuania there is 2 Year warranty)
BTW I contacted seller and waiting for answer and if they will not exchange it i will live with these issues
P.S. speaker test:
yah i noticed thatpressure on the back increasesthe bleeding but my photo was with no pressure. And dam this site lags on this transformer.
Still returning...sadly
just received my 3rd one in today. few dead pixels throughout the screen and then one big area that is washed out about the size of my thumb.
amazon refused to exchange this one and now says i have to go through asus. BULLSH**
i have to return mine due to the backlight as well, its got a bleed that seems like its getting worse every day.
also from amazon! i really dont want to send it back either

If you go to the bottom of the page on this site there is a arrow down box that says XDA 2010, switch it to XDA Classic and the website runs really smooth then.

Be honest. Does your Transformer have light bleed or not.
Yes - Minor
Worst Section: Dim in bottom left corner (spreads to about 1.5 inches from edge)
We have two 16gb Transformers in the house. Both have a small amount of lightbleed on the bottom edge.
I consider it a minor issue. Doesn't bother me much at all.
Yes but it is minor. top right
Light bleed is expected with IPS panels, thats just the way they work. My iPad 2 had light bleed 2, it used an IPS panel. My G2X has light bleed, uses a IPS panel.

+1 you should of really added an option.. SORT OF. I voted no because it was very minor and not really noticeable unless 0.2 inch light bleed from the bottom bothers you.
It has nothing to do with ASUS or the Transformer. It's just the way the screen technology was made.
very very minor light bleed at the bottom. not at all distracting, dont really notice it unless youre looking for it.
Yes. In a dark room, with a dark screen, there is the slightest amount of light leak. More than I've ever seen on this type of screen, but less than it would take to make me notice if I wasn't looking for it.
But then maybe I've been spoiled by my n1 screen!
bottom right corner, doesnt affect the use though.

Great, keep your results coming. I thought about multiple selections such as "small amount, it doesn't bother me" or "huge amount" but I just wanted to keep it simple. You do or do not have light bleed. I see this leak is common on IPS screens but some are just worse than others. Mine bleeds out from the lower left 1" at its source and continues up the entire left side. It is 2 weeks old and was this bad right out of the box! Thanks to everyone participating!
I can't find any. I have B60 serial.
Yes mine B40 does. As others have said, it's not bad enough to effect use, just a bit annoying. But we've been through so many threads regarding light bleed I think we all accept it at this point.
My B50 does too, bad one on the center left side, 2 smaller ones in the bottom center, a few really small ones on the right side, no noticeable bleeds on the top half.
90% of them are only visible at full brightness on a dark background, in a dark room. It doesn't bother me.
I have light bleed on all sides to a greater or lesser degree. It bothers me only a little though.

Me too Deadman3000, I'm not that annoyed by it. A little light leak seems to be inherent with the IPS screen technology. My new one is worse than my first one that had that lost it's screen completely. It had maybe 5 mm of leak at best and the second one has 25 mm of leak in places. The first was a B5 tablet and my new one is a B6. But I think by watching the posts throughout the day it is pretty consistant that 2 out of 3 have enough light bleed to bother owners enough to post a yes. That is the answer I was looking for. I notice that bringing up this issue seems to bother people and I would agree that there are posts everyday about it but when I searched, I couldn't find an actual number to put with this issue. So I apologize to those that were offended that hey had to endure yet another light bleed thread but I think we now have a little more knowledge today than we did yesterday... That is the purpose of our forum, to learn.
I have had my Transformer since launch. I have to say, until I started looking for it I never noticed any light bleed, even then it is minimal at best and definitely does not bother me. I have been reading about B40, B50, B60 serials and was wondering if anyone with a B30 serial is having any of the build quality issues ect. that everyone else seems to having. I have a B30 serial and I am quite happy with my device.
Yep, only a little bit on the bottom left corner. I never realised it was a bad thing until a week or so after I got mine I saw all the threads here about it I think it looks kinda cool when I'm reading a book.

Same here. But I don't pay much attention
Most of the time, my brightness is low, so not seeing it much
My previous B50 tab had minor light bleed at the bottom, particularly the lower right. It was noticeble only at Max bridgeness in the dark.
My current B60 tab had no light bleed at all
Pretty substantial on my B50, from all sides but the top. It's not unusable by any stretch, but it ain't pretty. Almost seems like it's become worse over the last month. Is that possible, or is it my imagination?
Yes, but you cant hold it at an angle and see the backlight, its just some coming through the back of the panel and its only visible if you have a bright backlit screen that is basically all black and you are in a very dark space. Its no different than any other LCD item I have used, even iProducts.

So there is a slight pink hue in the right side of the screen. I was wondering if most 6Ps were like this, or is it a defect. I did research and found that many ppl have this issue, so maybe its just how the phone is?

If it annoys you then it probably is worth an RMA. This is a symptom of the manufacturing process with AMOLED screens, so they will all have it, some not as much, some much worse. So going for an RMA is a bit of a gamble because you don't know whether your replacement will be better or worse.

I wonder if the new Gold 6PS with the newer build dates have better chances at a uniform screen
I've seen two devices, both January build dates. One was pink across the right side, about 1/2" of noticeable area down the length of the screen. The one I currently have is less pink, but on the entire left half of the screen. It's only noticeable because the right side is more of the greenish blue typical of AMOLED whites. It's only really noticeable in dim ambient lighting, with lower brightness, on white screens (such as browsing), but only when I'm looking at the display for extended periods and trying to notice it. I just picked my phone up right now and opened Messenger, but didn't see any of the pink tint at all unless I kept staring and tried to make out a difference.
It's subjective and up to you. I wish we could all get perfect screens. But it's only visible on white content... anything else you shouldn't notice it. I just hate hearing people RMA'ing 10 times because it certainly isn't good for Google or Huawei. It's the nature of the beast with AMOLED tech currently. Unless you have something crazy bad with your display, I feel like most people are making it a larger issue than it needs to be. If you want a perfect uniform white, go get an LCD and enjoy backlight bleed, poor contrast, etc. Until AMOLED gets perfected, there is going to be a potential, but slight, trade off.

I agree with your point, but unfortunately in the case of the 6P I had to RMA for other reasons too. My volume rocker warped inwards, as so has many other people reporting on XDA and reddit threads. I am not sure how it happened, as I baby my phones and keep them well taken care of. I just took my case off one day and noticed it. There must be something wrong with the structural integrity of the device. Other than these 2 issues, the phone is perfect for me, but I am hesitant on ordering another one now.
On my second 6P the lower part of the screen has a yellowish tint while the upper seems more pinkish/warmer. My first 6P which was this year's build had a uniform but pinkish display loose rattling buttons and imbalanced speakers and bonus low volume output from 3.5 jack. The replacement had all those issues resolved except from the screen which is not uniform and it's noticeable. Problem is no Google and easy RMA process in my country. It's pain in arse to get a replacement and you have to wait up to 1 week without a device to get it and they will not repeat it for second time except if the issue is really serious. By my experience this phone has really cheap QC issues. Judging from reddit and XDA most come with some sort of problems. Be it it uneven displays, buttons, reboots, speakers etc. I won't buy a Huawei device ever again. Those issues does not let me enjoy this phone as I should. I still love it but I can't recommend it to any of my friends due to the QC issues. It's a Russian roulette with very high probability to lose.

The replacement had all those issues resolved except from the screen which is not uniform and it's noticeable. Problem is no Google and easy RMA process in my country. It's pain in arse to get a replacement and you have to wait up to 1 week without a device to get it and they will not repeat it for second time except if the issue is really serious. By my experience this phone has really cheap QC issues. Judging from reddit and XDA most come with some sort of problems. Be it it uneven displays, buttons, reboots, speakers etc. I won't buy a Huawei device ever again. Those issues does not let me enjoy this phone as I should. I still love it but I can't recommend it to any of my friends due to the QC issues. It's a Russian roulette with very high probability to lose.

I agree on the QC issues, I won't be buying Huawei again either.
