This is my pg279 bought 4 days ago, still not decided if I keep it or return it. That is at 80% brightness when I lower it at 26%-40% the blb is not so much noticeable, it looks like it is gone, except 3 spots. First left bottom side and 2 and 3 top right. But it is getting better on the bottom one, I think the energy paper that was there, produced it after removing it, since it is glued on the panel and not on the frame as is the top.
Ips glow is visible from near and it changes position as you move your head and positioning. After few feet away you see only blb.
P.S. the blb on my picture is not the real blb as it overproduced from the phone camera. I was checking the photo and I was wondering where those blb spots are, since I can't see anything on top left corner and bottom right has a minimal white hue on the black.
So big reminder photo isn't same with live blb.
New pic with 40% brightness and the blb you see on it i cant see it on real life as it is. On daily the IPS glow is the "issue" if you have one with it.
and here a 23% brightness
This is very common in an IPS panel.
All IPS panels especially when larger in scale will "Always" have IPS glow, this is not a defect, this is normal (you can never get away from IPS glow).
Although in your case, almost all corners have too much backlight, which you should return for a replacement.
Ways you can tell if it is IPS glow -
• Corners will have a slight yellow/blue lit color when in a dark room while viewing a black or dark image.
• When viewing an image with color in the area of the "glow" you should not be able to see the "glow"
Ways you can tell if it backlight bleed -
• Corners will have a white or slight yellow color when in a dark room while viewing a black or dark image.
• When viewing an image with color in the area of the "glow" you should still see the "glow/bleed" in that corner.
If you do not like IPS glow (which is normal for an IPS panel) I strongly suggest you return the product and get a TN or VA panel monitor.
Asus's IPS panel with amazing backlight bleed thanks to the fantastic AU Optronics cheap panel they used (they should have use an LG or Samsung panel)
A perfect IPS panel as it should look like

Got my replacement today it is much better then the last one.
Here a pic at 80% brightness
The spots on the top are not so visible as it is showing on the picture. I saw them as I was trying to take the picture.
First one was a October this one is November one.
This is a keeper for me as it is.
