    Yeah, I noticed my laptop has dust under the screen after I cleaned the screen for the first time a couple of days ago. The dust is getting in from the bumpers on the screen. The two sides and large bumper on the bottom. I don't have a problem with it, it's just annoying to know that you can't clean that off. I don't have a camera to show any pictures, but just warning you guys. The bumpers aren't flush on the screen and have little openings just enough to get in. Just bummed that i'm having this problem this early in the life span of the laptop. I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but just giving a heads up to the other owners of the laptop. I love absolutely everything about the laptop, just not this problem.

    I have the same laptop and it isn't doing that. You might want to contact ASUS because it sounds like you received a bad screen.

    They said it was normal for some laptops to do that I guess. They said they would clean it if it was still under warranty.

    Should not really be a big concern, every laptop I ever had did that, just a quick wipe with one of those special screen cloths does the trick

    It's literally inside the screen you cannot wipe it off yourself unless you open the screen and take it out.
