PG279Q BLB / IPS Glow / Clouding acceptable?

[FatalityZZ]

Hi, I have just purchased new PG279Q monitor from Amazon and was wondering if the amount of BLB / Glow I have is acceptable or should I ask for replacement. Also is it better to ask Amazon for replacement during my 30 day window or just RMA it through Asus?

It is not as bad as on the photos, but still a bit visible.

Hi FatalityZZ,

That actually looks acceptable, IPS displays do have limitations. When you are working or gaming it really shouldn't be noticeable. If the box has appears to have been tampered with, then you should return it to your place of purchase.

It looks acceptable in my opinion. Try setting brightness 30-50 and turn on blue light features to level 4.
