    Same Problem here with my x5. Best to find some other excuse (keyboard? :)) for RMA and ask them to also fix it because backlight bleed is hard to quantify. At least that's how I am doing it (in repair right now) and they agreed to "take a look".

    Those photos are crystal clear and it's obvious even in a normally lit room.
