Good Day,

I've owned the Predator 17 G9-793 for about 6 months now, and just recently noticed this uneven color develop on the bottom left of the monitor. It did not exist before. Is this fixable?

    It doesn't look like it is fixable, so you need to give a call to Acer.
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.

    I think it is an issue with the pixels themselves. Backlight bleed is different and can only be seen in a dark background.

    Thanks, guess I'll head down to a service center when I fly back :(

    What does this seem like though? Backlight issues?
