    Hey guys/girls, this is my first post and I've been googling what is wrong with my LCD screen. I've purchased it around 4 months ago, but I never noticed the "white spots" until I looked at my laptop in an angle, either top, bottom, left or right. If I am looking at it straight, no "white spots" appear. Does anyone else have the same problem? I've uploaded two pictures, one of them is straight into the screen, and another that is right of the screen.

    Also it more revealing if it is on a white background compare to a black.

    Does anyone know what's wrong? I really appreciate your feedback. Thank you.

    -Andy

    to me, it just looks like an issue of poor viewing angles.

    But when I first purchased the laptop, I checked for dead pixels and everything, and there was nothign there. I don't know when it exactly started developing, but I'm sure its not an angle issue. Its quite noticable...

    UPDATE: I called lenovo and they said they would ship a box for the laptop via DHL and to ship back to fix the LCD/screen. Thank god the warranty is still in effect.
