Does anyone have a perfect screen?

I think you should just keep it. It's obvious that your not having too good of luck here. Either keep it or get a refund and wait to purchase it another day.

 

i've probably had 10 lcd screens; monitors, tvs, iphone, ipad, etc. i have never had a screen that showed NO level of bleeding to some degree or another. some were better than others, but everyone has to realize that it is a limitation of the technology. probably not what you want to hear, but it's the truth. like i said, some screens are better than others, so if you are unsatisfied go to the apple store and try again. good luck.

 

Same issue different response

My backlight bleeding on my 64gb wifi+3g was the same as you are experiencing. I called up on Sunday with the issue, was elevated to a product engineer named "Charles" and he issued a replacement request. I got the box at noon today and sent it back before the cutoff today. I should get one back on Thursday and I will let you know what the condition is.

I have found the trick with the phone support is to be super nice when you talk to them, chat with them a little bit and they will warm up to you. If you don't like what you are getting be frank with them and they have always met my needs. This is the only time that I have not gotten an advance replacement at no charge, but I didn't ask this time either.

 

It sounds like you already are.

I'll never understand why people look for things that are wrong.

It's an iPad. It's not your soulmate. It's not even yours for life. In a year or so you know you're going to dump it for the newest model.

Enjoy your purchase. You deserve it. Stop trying to find things wrong with it.

 

Mine has minor backlight bleed, but no yellow tint or dead pixels. I've never seen an LCD with absolutely zero backlight bleed. In the case of the iPad, it's not very noticeable even on a black screen, but imperceptible to me during normal usage.

 

Wow dude that s reenact looks terrible. Mine looks nothing like that. Return that POS defect immediately.

 

Surprisingly I just checked my screen for bleeding and dead pixels.

I seem to have a perfect screen! The light bleed is extremely minimal...can't even tell really...unless you look at it for a while without blinking.

I have no dead pixels either.

I was afraid to check, but after was very satisfied.

 

Hello, new member here. I also had several problems regarding the screen as well. I had a perfect 32gb wifi but returned it for a 64gb wifi. Upon opening the 64 I found a scratch that ran top to bottom on the lcd. I exchanged that one for a new 64 that had dust and some light bleed around the left bottom of the ipad. (not as bad as yours but completely distracting)My newest one has very slight bleed and 2 stuck pixels only visible at full brightness and black background. I am very particular with my belongings but I am just going to keep it. After reading what some other members experienced I consider myself lucky.

 

One of the dumbest things I've read.

Don't fault people for expecting something to be perfect. When you're paying $500-800 for something, it should look right. Backlight bleeding in random places doesn't look right. Now, whether that's the nature of the technology is another story. But don't be so ignorant to fault those who have no way of knowing that.

 

Stuck pixels will get you an automatic replacement. Why keep it?

 

Believe me I'd like to try it again but it is not visible with any other colors beside black at full brightness.( i always have it on the lowest brightness)I fear that I will get a worse one.

 

Did you buy from the Apple store or Best Buy?

Once they give you a replacement, you turn it on while you're still at the store to make sure it's right. The issue of backlight bleeding is debatable. However, dead/stuck pixels require no argument at all. You keep trying until you get one that's right--all without leaving the store. You can't really lose.

 

I bought it at an Apple store and i did turn it on at the store but to be honest it looked perfect there. When i got home I looked thoroughly and noticed the two stuck pixels. More or less I was just looking for the light bleed issue.

 

In all of my adult life of 25 years of buying electronics from Apple, Dell, Sony, Panasonic and just about every one else I have never had an issue with dead pixels, yellowing, bleeding, stuttering or otherwise.

I have read stories in this forum of people returning their iPhones multiple times in search of perfection. And now it begins with the iPad.

I am sorry, but you ARE those people.

 

If we're pointing out who people are... you're most definitely a troll.

 

I can't get a good picture, but there are two little spots where light bleeds through on the right side of my iPad but the spots are less than half as big as the smallest spot on yours.

 

Picky people sheesh.

 

I am pointing out the idiocy, lunacy and ridiculousness of looking for problems that are not there. The OP expressed a fear that he is one of those people after the Applw tech guy confirmed that he already is, and you defended him. So yes, in that regard I am calling you out.

Turning up your brightness to a level at which no one would do under even extreme conditions to see if there is bleeding??? Opening a box in the store and staring at "the precious?"

While the rest of are enjoying our iPads you will be obsessing over something that isn't there, much like an anorexic obsessing over fat that isn't there.

And the whole trend of calling people that aren't part of your little worry-wart brigade "trolls" is tired and transparent.
