How are the blacks on this monitor? Is there any light bleed in the corners or sides?

I have two of these and do have a slight light bleed on the left hand side and bottom left corner. I used a screen saver with a black background and white letters, but this is not noticeable during normal use. Overall not bad, but I don't expect perfect.James

It's crazy how many different answers people give for all the questions on this monitor. It's glossy on the front, monitor half and a matte black finish on the back half where the output ports are. The base/stand is also a glossy black finish.

I can only speak for myself, but I really don't care for the glossy screens. I have one on my Dell laptop and it looks great in perfectly controlled lighting; However, it is very reflective and I find myself adjusting the screen angle more than I would like. I am also looking at this monitor, which looks like a good deal, but I think I'll go with a matte screen.

My U845W-S400 does not have any lines, bad pixels, or uneven lighting. You can tell that this laptop is built with high quality. The display is good but not excellent. I guess it is not the brightest and does not have the most vivid colors, but nothing that would actually bother the viewer. I watch movies on it.

I don't think this is one of their "eye care" monitors. Personally, I haven't had any flickering problems. I run all my games in 1080p and don't have any problems. I hope this helps and wish you well on your search for a good monitor.

It has a "matte" finish meaning it greatly reduces glare, there is still glare but it's not as bad as "glossy" (aka shiny) monitors. In fact, It has almost no glare even with direct sunlight.

Hi, The screen has a matte finish, I'm very happy with the monitor, clear image and sharp in Stereo.My only complaint would be that there is some bleed through around the edges of the screen, only visible when the screen is almost black.Under normal conditions you can't see it at all, but in some very dark game screen it show a little.I really love the 3D, I thought that I'd probably get tired of it after the novelty wore off, but I play all my games with it 90% of the time.

The monitor case front, back and stand are all shinny black. The only thing that is not black is a silver stripe at the bottom of the front of the monitor screen

The picture and brightess seem excellent to me. In a dark room when I turn it on it seems really bright for a few seconds .??Is this backlight bleedthrough? Black seems very black. The built in speakers are not adequate and if you do any music or sound for that matter, use auxiliary speakers for sure.

They seem consistent to me. I use it for CAD work and my second monitor is used mostly for menus. I did quick check by dragging a picture from one monitor to the other and I couldn't see any difference. I down loaded the software from NVidia and am able to have different color setting for each monitor, but have not needed to do so.

No, actually it looks good. That is the resolution I'm using and I like it a lot. I would buy this monitor again.

None here...As with any thing that is shipped in mass not all of them are perfect..just return it if you do have dead pixels and don't give up on the monitor it is awesome.

Compared to other monitors of similar size and cost, I find the black level (brightness at dark spots) to be very good. After a few months usage on one of these and one month on a second, I see no clouding or back light bleed. really, these monitors still seem a very good value to me.

it certainly doesnt have the same quality as ones such as Retina Displays or the new galaxies but its damn close. make sure you set the settings on both the monitor and the computer display or else the monitor would continuously try to adjust color because it the settings aren't set right.

Yes, I haven't had any problems with my monitor yet. No glares, bleed, or even a single dead pixel.

No scuff marks. Glossy finish. Less than a year, monitor failed to support HDMI output. Don't waste your $$$ on this poor quality monitor. You are better off getting the DELL S2440L. Dell S2440l ===> Beautiful and wonderful monitor!
