Q: MacBook Pro Retina display burn-in?

看到了，我换了好几块屏幕，都有程度不一的边缘发灰，你这个算严重一点的

Hi,

here are some images of the lightleaks on my macbook pro with retina display with a new one-day-old samsung LCD

It doesn't look so bad in person, but it's there.

strangely the lightleak is worse on my 2011 macbook pro 13inch (see photos)

In the interest of comparison,

could someone please provide photos of macbook pro with retina display without lightleaks?

And here is the strange one.... my few months old 2011 macbook pro 13inch

Does this qualified as anomaly?

What I have got myself into? This is unacceptable for these expensive machines. Image Retention and then light leak.

However, you guys should be pretty happy with Samsung because we all LG are getting pain in the ***!

given that I have traded in two LG displays due to image retention, I am a little reluctant to return this Samsung one because of lightleak..

paying more than $3000, yet still choosing the lesser of the two evils.

Is that a solid black background you are using to display the light leakage? I would only return/replace it if it really bothers you under normal usage. If I were you I would exchange it immediately! I recently requested a refund on my Samsung display because of backlight bleeding, which was somewhat visible in any light condition. Once you are aware of a problem you will continuously become paranoid about it getting worse over time.

My build is the same config and only 15 builds away from yours.  I also noticed the same thing about people having already received the machines from our week - strange.  UPS have advised mine should arrive on Friday, I will update when I know more.

Yes it is a solid black background.

Mine is not very noticeable at this point (does this get worse though?)

Although when you are in a dimly lit room, the bleeding on the bottom right corner is clearly visible even when the brightness is at the range of 30%-50%

When I use the laptop in the office, it's fine (because the environment is bright)

But at home, the blacklight bleeding can be somewhat annoying - especially considering this is a very expensive laptop

The thing is that there is so much that can be wrong with the replacement machine/screen that it's super risky to replace it. I would keep it as it is and try replacing the screen in some months, when Apple hopefuly stabilizes the quality control and gets rid of all the problems bothering us. It also has some pros - you get a new top lid, free from scratches

It isn't a test Pic,just iPhoto interface!

Apple?it is normal?

那你觉得我是应该申请退款还是就用这个啦？

I also want to see some pictures about retina macbook without lightleak.

I am tinking about return it and get refound....

I have been repaired my retina macbook for 3 times because of the LG. Finally, I got a samsung with lightleaks.....

Good luck for every one who still fights for IR, and hope you guys get a perfact screen, NO IR, NO lightleaks....

Can you guys post in English? Not everyone is Chinese.

In my experience, light bleed doesn't get worse over time. For everyone with a Samsung I would recommend living with smaller defects if possible at all to avoid falling into the much much deeper LG ***hole.

I dont know if there are more samsung screen in stock in Apple repair center (Houston TX)...

I got my samsung screen there.
