Is the screen bleeding in top right corner acceptable or should I be worried? Noticed it last night when watching a movie. It has a reddish colour. Thanks

Is your screen bleed problem getting worse from time to time?
I'm planning on buying imac on the local store, but it had the same bleed problem. I'm worrying it might get much w
orse from time to time.
You're writing about this corner:
? If it doesn't show up when you actually have an image on screen, I wouldn't worry about it. If you can see a red tint when there's an image displayed, you may want to take the machine into your local Apple Store.
Good luck,

Yes, that corner. Fortunately, it's invisible when viewing content and during daily use. It only shows up at dark when watching movies.
If you're still under warranty, then (were I you) I would definitely take the machine into your local Apple Store/AASP and get the screen replaced.
But if you're out of your wrranty period, I wouldn'y pay for a new screen!

Thanks for your input Clinton, it's two weeks old. I am actually talking to Customer Relations an engineers about two shadows on top of the screen, so it might undergo a surgery pretty soon. It seems impossible to get a flawless screen on the first time.
If the machine is only two weeks old, then I would insist on a new screen: you shouldn't suffer any sort of non-perfection on a new computer.
Good luck,
Clinton
Just took this photo in the dark. Definitely getting an appointment. That doesn't seem righ to me.
Here is what mine looks like... It's actually noticeable in the lower left hand corner even with content displayed.
I don't *honestly* notice it while working which is what I use this laptop for but it is ... starting to concern me. I've had the laptop about a year but I do have AppleCare.
I guess what concerns me is that I always seem to have the luck of having something replaced only to get another one that's worse or has other issues. This is a lot of light bleed but I could live with it as I obviously have for almost the last year.
I do have another 15" rMBP that doesn't have this issue at all that was bought before the one I have now.
Is my retina MBP screen bleed acceptable?
