Backlighting starting to bother me... Any thoughts?

I actually ended up returning my TV, as the clouding was very bad, and also the blu ray player was just as bad as well. It's a shame, since the TV did have a very nice picture watching sporting events. I was surprised to see Amazon has 40 something used TV's for sale on the same model, so I assume many people are having the same issues.

I've seen mine do that. I think it might have something to do with not using it for a long time. Then if you do somethingwith it, it will go back to full brightness. I supose it has to do with saving battery life. Though running it on the car batterythis wouldn't make much sense. That's the best I can come us with.

I'm not going to lie, I never really had a glare problem before. The backlighting on my tablet off-set any surface glare I had. It definitely doesn't make it worse!

Back light is toggled on/off with a button on the keyboard. As far as I know, there is no way to time it. You can customize the colors and switch them with the profile and macro keys.

I gave the unit away as a gift, but I believe it was backlit. I tried it before I gave it away. The person I gave it to loves it,by the way.

Backlight bleeding and tint is a luck based thing with these. I currently have the second one here, because the first one had a damaged led row, and this one has a slight tint to the blue - after all, those are the kind of reasons this is only an A Panel, and not A+. But if you get backlight bleeding you can fix it rather easy - just google it and you will find videos on how to do it. But that's only if you're not afraid of opening up the casing (did so myself, and it's really not that dangerous, altough a little work with the cheap plastic encasing)

Mine does the same thing and it works perfectly - my suggestion is don't worry about the lights - also, sometimes you have to give the system time to change so don't be in a big rush - good luck, I really like it.

No, there is no backlight. Not on the models I have. Mine are 3+ years old.

I'm having the same type of noise problem with a 26" Samsung. It was like that straight out of the box. The backlight was set on 10 (in the Dynamic picture mode) I have to keep the backlight setting at 5 or below and then it's masked by the TV volume. On mute I can still hear it. Very annoying. I'll be contacting Samsung very soon.

Hmmmmm, my lights are still ok, possibly a warranty issue... possibly a defective unit or bulbs...?

I realize this answer is very late, but in case anyone else has this problem - there's a button to turn the backlight on and off, it is off by default. If it doesn't have that button I would suggest returning it directly to Amazon and ordering a new one.

There is an option to have the keys backlit.... simply press and hold the fn key while tapping the spacebar which will either turn on or off the backlights.

I have more of a backlight issue when viewed from off angle. There is a white fuzzy band of excess brightness on the right 1/8 of screen, that washes out the color. is this similar to your set?

No! The buttons illuminate when pushed, or light up through the sequence of a system macro, but no back lighting.

My backlight lights with every push of any button. I would say your phone is faulty. I am not an expert so don't take my opinion to seriously.RegardsJohn

View looks good on mine. I would try a new battery to see if it helps. Using backlight helps as well.

I think I found an answer to the issue. The problem I had is that I changed the settings immediately to "Dynamic," which raises the brightness significantly, and is only supposed to be used in a very bright room. When I put the settings back to normal everything looks great and the side light issues disappear. I guess I just need to listen to the suggestions of what the different picture modes are for.
