2017 Razer Blade Pro 4k Backlight Bleed on Display Acceptable?

I have purchased a Razer Blade Pro 4k gtx 1080 2017 model back in November of 2018. My first unit had large amounts of backlight bleed around the corners of the display. So, I sent the laptop to Razer's Repair Center and they replaced the display with a new one. When I received my repaired Razer Blade Pro, the new display still has small amounts of backlight bleed. I'll give Razer's Repair Center some credit that this display is almost perfect with no dead pixels and the backlight bleed is much smaller than the first unit's display. I have been using this Razer Blade Pro for about a month and the backlight bleed still bugs me. However, I'm not sure if I should send this laptop back since Razer's Repair Center gave me another display with backlight bleed. So to anyone who might come across this thread, is this amount of backlight bleed on a system that costs 5k+ dollars acceptable? Or should I try Razer's Support System again and try to get a display that has no backlight bleed issues. Ive compared the Razer Blade Pro's display to my Razer Blade Stealth display for quality comparison.

No imo, i would send it back until I got one like your stealth. I have similar BLB on MacBook Pro 2012, but not as big as that, and on day one I believe i didn’t notice that. My Blade 15 has very minimal BLB but I don’t notice that when using it in dark scenes, it’s bright room and I can notice from photo, I believe it’ll bother you while on usage.
Print out the photo on put it between screen and keyboard so repair man can really know what’s the problem.

Thank you Joikansai, for your recommendations. I'm currently going through a Razer Case and if they accept my repair request, I'll print out a picture of the back light bleed on the display that I would like fixed. I might use the photo below to print out with my repair case.
