Aspire VX-15 (VX5-591G) IPS backlight bleeding

TheSpiderous

Hi everyone!
I'm an owner of an Aspire laptop (model VX5-591G) and I'm experiencing some issues with excessive backlight bleeding. It looks very awful and it often disturbs me when I'm working, even in daylight. I bought the laptop almost 2 years ago and it has already been repaired once (I had a problem with a broken hinge). I also reported a small issue with backlight back then but they just said that everything was ok and renewed a screen. After the repair, the problem with bleeding didn't disappear. I tried to loosen screws but it wasn't the real cause of it. I discovered that a screen frame was too tightened to clamps and after reassembling it, the screen returned to have a visible backlight.

First picture presents the screen with the frame took off and the second one reassembled:



So my question is of course, is it normal or I have to again report it and wait another week without a device I usually work on? It somehow frustrates me because surprisingly MSIs and Aspires don't have these problems, at least not in my neighborhood and friends who own them.

Thanks!

Hi,
Could you please post the model name of your panel, normally you get some back light bleeding in IPS panels but it seems a little excessive in your laptop, I would suggest you to get a panel yourself and install.
You can find the model name using HWiNFO64 free program.

Hi, thanks for a reply.


So I have to pay for something that is still under warranty? It's ridiculous.
