Hi I recently bought the slate gray 2016 macbook from bestbuy online and i noticed heavy light bleeding when i turned it on. I exchanged it in store and the new one also has significant light bleed. I'm wondering if this is something others have noticed? Is this normal for the macbook? It only is noticible when the screen is black. I also have a macbook pro and it doesn't have any light bleed.

I bought one just this past Saturday as an open-box and I have a slight light bleed in the upper righthand corner. I am going to keep it. What I do plan on doing when I have a free couple of days is just take it into Apple and see about a screen replacement. We will see.

I have no light bleed. I owned 2015 version, and now I'm on 2016 version. No light bleed on any of them.
