    Is this amount of backlight-bleeding acceptable?

    The screen was changed on my Macbook 13 retina mid 2014 because the antireflex was wearing off. This is the new screen I got, and it seems to have much more bright spots than previous one. Is it still within «normal» or should I go back? Picture is taken in a dark room with black background and...

    2018 MBP 15" - Backlight Issue?

    Is this a backlight issue or is it something else? Is this normal? The screen appears to display purple lights at specific viewing angles. Kind of annoying when I'm watching content and there are tints of purple.

    Macbook Pro 2017 - W key brighter than others

    Hey, I'm not paranoid or anything, It's just super irritating especially in the night when W shines as some party club while others are calmly dimmed. I want to ask if I'm the only one with this problem and if it's worth taking it to Apple Store.
