The reasons for the appearance of light

Possible sources of the problem:

New monitors, when connected for the first time, may produce uneven brightness, which disappears after a few days of use.

Features of LED products, they are designed in such a way that the LEDs that provide lighting and brightness are located on the edge of the monitor. In this regard, brighter areas may appear at the edges.

Limited viewing angles can cause the imaginary effect of incorrect illumination. This often happens when using models with a large diagonal, when the user changes position relative to the monitor.

Possible defect or breakdown of the screen if large-scale violations of uniform illumination are detected.

According to experts, all models of LCD screens are more or less susceptible to such shortcomings.

ON A NOTE. If the backlight appears on the screen after a long period of use, there is a problem requiring repair.

Is it possible to get rid?

Methods that the user can apply independently are reduced to changing the settings:

• If you increase the brightness and contrast levels of the monitor, the light will become invisible or disappear.
• On models of some manufacturers (for example, Sony), you can select the Cinema adjustment setting, which creates an image with a warm color. To do this, press the Options key on the remote control and activate "Select a scene", and then apply the desired item.
• If the monitor has the function of dynamic control of the LED backlight (LED Dinamic Control), make sure that it is on, it can be used to adjust the necessary lighting levels.
