QUICK UPDATE!

So Mr Ng from Prism+ actually contacted and spoke to me, and he's the guy that has been handling my case since the first replacement.
Definitely a patient and customer service oriented guy, explained to me on why IPS panels (the ones used on E55) are giving the issues I've mentioned.
So after doing abit of research here and there + what he told me, I came to the conclusion that the "defects" I have seen is actually a norm in IPS panels (which is used by E55).

You guys can read the following link to know the difference between IPS panels and VA panels: https://www.rtings.com/tv/learn/ips-led-vs-va-lcd

Have to admit most of the customers don't see that as an issue, like I am the only one out of my entire family to notice it... (I mean who will specifically go for full white and black screen to scrutinise the panels?)
Nevertheless, I rejected further exchange and decided to keep my current unit, which by the way he still offers despite knowing I will never be satisfied since it's an inherent issue with IPS panels.

All in all, they have a really good customer support team that's willing to go all out to make sure consumers are happy with their product. I see that from them and decided not to make life difficult for them any further, as every exchange adds to their operating cost since they actually have to come down and do the swap (which they can actually not do an exchange, since it not considered a defect in their policy, they are doing the exchange on a goodwill basis here).

I have to say after all that I have went through, for the price you are paying, it's definitely a good purchase. Kudos to the customer service team for their willingness in explaining to their consumers. End of the day, you get what you paid for, and I really feel I can't complain much for the price that I've paid.

i was there for 2 days basically you pay for what you get. Picture Quality simply way off in terms of color contrast etc.

i agree.

I have the same issue with backlight bleeding on E55 especially on top left hand corner.. Messaged Prism+ and waiting for response.

Almost ordered this E55 TV as friend recommended me it very cheap. Luckily came across HWZ and read feedback. Guess its a no no for Prism TV, have to go shop for Samsung or Sony liao :s22:

but some said LG QLed is better than OLED (Samsung)

tbh, if the panel is more important than everything else, QLED is better.

for me, i value the OS more than the panel after all, if i don't compare them side by side, i could barely tell the difference.

I sent an email out to them and got a reply claiming that this is normal...seriously... any fellow owner having the same issue with me here?

After a few email exchange, their tech support agree to exchange another set for me. Let see how things goes. Hope to get a good set as my fren's set did not have such light bleeding issue.

backlight issue

E55 user here and i noticed the strong backlight issue on top left as well. first thing i did after i arrived is to test for dead pixel so i saw it rightaway. googled about it and saw that it is quite common for these kind of tvs so I just shrugged it off.

i dont have the said issue for my old sony bravia tv so i guess it's a trade off for it being cheap. apart from it everything is fine.

so for those picky ones, be aware of the common issue it sems.

Mine also got a bit. But maybe normal.
Btw, can y'all find the MeWatch app?

Take a Xiaomi 55" panel that didn't make their own QA, put on a sticker, adn sell to sinkies. That's my impression of this TV. Bad colors, bad contrast, worse backlight bleed than super old panels.
