    If you are in dark room, reduce the brightness, try to remove all the cables(including the power cable) press and hold the power button for 30 secs. connect the power code and then the other display cable. Isp glow is different from internal bleeding. is it happening while Turing on and off? the below threats will be really useful.

    Hello and thanks for your comment.. ok I have tried all of the above and the problem still persists. But yes the glow in the four corners is still there when the monitor turns on and off. In fact it was when I turned my monitor off for the first time I noticed it. Even when the brightness turned all the way down the level of glow doesn’t seem to change and it is somewhat distracting when gaming especially when going into dark scenes.... i’ve only owned the monitor for four days.

    It's possible the backlight shielding isn't seated fully all the way around, causing excess bleed, but I would be surprised to see all four corners doing about the same.

    it IPS glow even the most most expensive monitor have this , even VA or other panel sometimes .. ITS NORMAL… i think its also effect the higher the Hurst of the monitor the more it will be sensitive.. for example 240, 180, 144, 100, 75hz.. and base our experience it also the panel cover making this glow the adhesive and the cover itself to HOLD THE LCD . .. you know what buy 60hz monitor so you will not experience this lol.. OR BUY cheap monitor…

    Dont worry its not defective use it and play your games …
    your lucky you have monitor others dont have.

    EVEN in laptop Most of the time GAMING LAPTOP has IPS screen it has, So dont waste your time complaining if you are first time user IPS glow its NORMAL….Just eat SLeep and PLay…

    most IPS use multicolor for better editing some stuff like video and photo.. so Why bother use it on dark background and Dark room.. non sense so Dont buy IPS screen …
