Why is my laptop screen like this?

Phamanimalj

Hi, so I recently had this problem where the top my screen is black, but the rest of the display is perfectly normal. I possibly dropped it, which I think what caused it. I lightly hit the back of the laptop, and it turned back normal, but it quickly goes back to the blackness on top. Now it's stuck like this. Here's a picture : As you can see there is a blackness on the top right. I'm not sure if this has to do with the display drivers or not, or is it just something I can't fix. (sorry for bad quality, taken on an iPad) . Just so you know my laptop is running perfectly fine, the display is just very annoying.

Good evening Phamanimalj !

This issue is known as Backlight Bleeding or Bleeding.
Also commonly called "Cloud Visualization", Clouding, Backlight Bleed or "Mura".
Unfortunately, this is a question currently posed by many screen producers.
Any brand or developer is subject to this.
There is no exchange policy of any company regarding this issue.
Several companies present this issue on their screens like Sony, Dell, Asus, Acer among others.

Here's Acer's bleeding information here: https://answers.acer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/48248/~/solving-solving-solving-solution-da-luz-de- light leakage background # _ga = 2.116715535.889737960.1565913543-1593109761.1565913543

However, I have some tips that may be helpful before moving on to the screen swap:

Tip 1: Use the program called DPT (free) (http://www.dataproductservices.com/dpt) to analyze the effect.
The ideal screen for clouding software is solid black or Circle.
Be aware that the darker the environment, the greater the visual incidence of these leaks.
During the process make sure that increasing and decreasing the screen brightness can check the exact points of occurrences.

Tip 2: Use your equipment in a bright place where light comes from the back.
This will enhance the contrast and deeper black tones.
In very dark and / or semi-dark places, the probability of seeing such clouds is more likely due to the non-incidence of any other ambient light source.

Most importantly, these leaks are not so loud that they can completely interfere with your visual experience.

PS: Be aware that if you decide to trade, the next one may come better or worse! It's a risk!

PS²: In this link you can see that even other brands already have their guides to address the issue: https://www.dell.com/support/article/en/brbsdt1/sln304886/solution-de-problemas- leak-light-leak-on-a-lcd-monitor-or-notebook-lcd-screen? lang = en

It would be interesting for you to enter the exact model of your notebook. In addition to the tips of colleague maclane, this can also help you:

Q: My laptop has backlight bleed, is it normal?

A: All backlight IPS panels have backlight bleed. That includes 3000$ Alienware laptops and even the new Razer Pro laptops. It's normal.

You can attempt a repair by loosening the screws holding your screen panel in place..
