Hi there, I know this has been debated for a long time but just trying to understand if this level of backlight bleeding is normal. To add some context, this picture was taken in a dark room with the deck showing a completely black image. Thanks! steam deck picture in the dark

A camera isn't very flattering while it's straining like heck to expose something. To the eye, it's not that bad.

I definitely feel a little jealous of OLED whenever there's a "black" loading screen, but once the game gets going I forget about it. I had the OG gameboy, I have had some outrageously bad screens in my time. This LCD can still do reasonably vivid color, has very low color shift when you tilt it, and I can't make out the pixels. I have some better screens around, but the difference in the quality of my experience with any of my modern screens is pretty small.
