    Hello folks..

    So I bought the Chronos and overall im pretty happy with it, tho theres some getting used. But one of them I cant seem to get used to is the:

    My laptop is showing some dark/dim edges along the right side of the screen, its like the white wont come out a 100% like on the left side of the screen. IE the scrollbar on this page is a little grayed out due to that. And when i run my mouse out on the right side it turns all grayish, from white.

    I would like to say I already returned one laptop of these due to that problem.. And this second one has the same problem.. Is there anything that can be done? or am I just unlucky getting "bad" screens? Any of your experienced the same?

    Kind regards
    Hylle

    Nevermind this thread, I just returned my Samsung laptop and got my money in back after trying 2 of these laptops. The laptop is very nice, the only thing breaking it is the screen, Im sorry. Trust the reviews on this one, the screen isnt the best.

    Mine has this too, though it doesn't really bother me. Is this a common thing with these? I remember seeing a similar thing on the display models.
