That happened. I'm afraid of that. I bought two of these monitors and one monitor is darker than the other. The other is nice and bright. I'm a pretty techy guy and the color caught my eye as soon as I plugged it in. Computer and monitor color settings are completely identical. I've tried changing HDMI cables to no avail. I just want you to know. So be careful.
