KD-49XD8305 Bottom Light bleed/line along the whole bottom

[Arthur6]

Dear all,

I bought KD-49XD8305 and received it yesterday, but there is a very noticable light line half inch along the whole bottom of TV. It's a second new Sony TV i had this issue the first i returned(KD-49XD8088). Is that acceptable at all? It really bothers me and when i went to the Currys shop I didn't see this light bleed at all.

Please advise if i need to exchage again or just return and settle for a different brand :((

If it's a fault set you should return it. Never had this kind of problems

It's actually a wide reported problem now. Look at this link on Amazon - https://www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/B01IF521AI/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_viewopt_srt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoin...

I am not sure if Sony is aware, but this looks like an issue wiht panels made in November - both TV's had manufaturing date as 11/2016 - I wen to currys just now and they have one from August and seemed ok.

Can Sony do anything about this? Just the hustle again of returning and re-ordering without guaranteeit will be ok is extremely frustrating.
