U2518D, A00, Backlight bleeding

Hi, 

Monitor U2518D. The issue is that I noticed that my monitor suffer of backlight bleeding, but it seems that every ips monitor suffers. Can someone tell me if I should keep it or give it back, as  I bought it from amazon.

This are some photo of my monitor:

 

100 brightness and 75 contrast, Standard

80 brightness and 75 contrast, Standard

is it acceptable or i should give it back?

Sometimes when I watch a movie I notice something like a wave cooming from the bottom, like tearing or shuttering.

thanks!

    * Turn the room lights on. Dell monitors are not validated in a dark room. All monitors are inspected per industry standard, which is with 150lux ambient lighting (similar to typical office lighting)
    * Reset the monitor to Factory Defaults, page 43. The Brightness and Contrast should return to 75 for both
    * Post pictures of the standalone BID (Built-in Diagnostics), page 50, and I will tell you if it meets our manufacturer specifications for overall uniformity
