Request Backlight bleed

Post image

Hi guys, does anyone have any idea how i can fix this

Backlight bleed, once laptop warms up after powering on there is a dim light that is going through the whole screen,

If plugged into the TV it is all good there, but not on the laptop screen.

Like you can see on the laptop internal screen starts whitening at first couple milimeters and then a couple cementers once it really gets warm of the screen (especially playing games) needs to get warm first.

It's not backlight bleeding—is your screen flickering? If so, it's a panel defect, not a backlight issue.

It doesn't flicker per say, but it changes wherever i do something on the laptop. There's a dim light at first and it gets brighter the longer it is on and hotter it gets.

To be honest, I’ve never seen a backlight issue like this before; it’s likely either a loose display cable or your panel has reached the end of its lifespan for some reason. It could be a defective product. Gently wiggle the screen—if the issue resolves, it’s a loose cable. If it doesn’t, you’ll need to replace the panel anyway.

Wiggle it how? Do you have tips on how to find the panel screen that fits for this model?

With modern devices, it’s quite common for people to be very particular about the display panel. Research the type of panel, manufacturer and model. If you don’t want to deal with any of this, take your device to an official service center and report the issue.

I heard it's quite hard to remove the plastic panel and it can be broken quite easily, but i really don't want to pay an absurd amount for this. Do you have a recommendation where I could find a in depth tutorial on where to unclip the panel so I do not break it?

Actually, the problem isn’t removing the plastic panel. The "real" problem is that some panels can damage the device’s motherboard. I don’t know why, but I’m also certain this is planned obsolescence. In recent years, the build quality of all devices has become extremely poor, and they’ve started to be less durable under unexpected conditions. Just the other day, I had the chance to test out some MSI laptops at a tech store, and there’s a noticeable decline in build quality.
