It seems to be cut off by a few pixels all the way around. Watching a movie tho, no problem. Using it for a puter monitor tho, slight issue. To give a bit of a idea, about 1/3 of the clock on the little panel thing at the bottom is cut off. The little K menu thing is missing about the same on both bottom and left side.

I figure it could be that they just put to much plastic around the display itself. Sort of covered up to much of the screen. For now, it'll work fine tho.

Mine isn't skewed to one side, it's just a fraction to large.  It seems to be cut off by a few pixels all the way around.  Watching a movie tho, no problem.  Using it for a puter monitor tho, slight issue.  To give a bit of a idea, about 1/3 of the clock on the little panel thing at the bottom is cut off.  The little K menu thing is missing about the same on both bottom and left side.  You can see it but it just isn't all there like on my puter monitor.

Since I don't really plan to use it for a monitor, it's no biggie.  I figure it could be that they just put to much plastic around the display itself.  Sort of covered up to much of the screen.

For now, it'll work fine tho.  I may figure on it some but not going to worry about it to much.
