Resolved Weird screen edge

[Jakubk]

Hi,
I just bought my first Macbook and as it`s great all over, I`ve noticed that on the top edge of the screen there are bright lines. Is it normal or should I be concerned? I`m thinking if it`s pay off the hustle to return it if there is a chance to get it again as (maybe) it`s not unusual.

Are you talking about this?

Exactly. It's few times across top border and looks like cut off or brushed border. Visibly on light.

It’s the seam between the screen and the unibody. It’s probably just a minor machining imperfection. I don’t have a Mac laptop to compare with, but if it’s really irritating you, you could swap for another machine. It’s nothing that will affect your machine though.

left over anti glare coating. Rub it with the corner of a business card.

Don't have. But if the Mac was from 2nd hand, it would signal me for a screen replacement/tinker, especially if that's a scratch on the curved edge (barely visible)

OMG, it worked with harder paper! Thanks. I`ve tried it multiple times with microfiber cloth and spray for displays with no success.
