    Hi,

    I own a Acer 5552G-7464 and everything is perfect. The only issue I encounter with it is that when the screen is viewed from an angle, it's possible to see darker areas (spots) from the LED backlight. From what I understand, LED backlighting should be even(correct me if I am wrong on this :)). However, when viewed from the front, the backlight is flawless and the dark areas can't be seen. This issue is especially visible on white. Is this normal or a flaw with the manufacturing?

    Thanks,
    -Ice

    Unfortunately brightness is not even across the screen regardless of the backlight being provided by LED or otherwise.
