I've noticed on the Apple Studio Display that when bright colors are displayed near the top and side edges of the display, a "shadow" appears along each edge next to the bezels. See the photo below and note the dark gray line running along the top of the otherwise bright silver menu bar, as well as the dimmed edge of the window title bar on the left side.
The shadows get more pronounced as your viewing angle gets further off-center. If you look at it dead-on, it is not as pronounced. I don't know what this phenomenon is exactly—uneven backlight or what—but it is somewhat distracting when trying to do design work.
My previous display, the iMac 27", did not exhibit this behavior—it had even lighting all the way to the edges, regardless of viewing angle.
Other owners of the Studio Display, could you please tell me if your display is also like this or not? I'm trying to figure out if this is normal/expected or not before the return window closes. Thanks.
