New BenQ GW2790 - Small corner backlight bleed only on black screen. Normal or should I return?

I just bought a new BenQ GW2790 and noticed a small amount of light bleed in all four corners. It's only visible when I display a completely black screen .

During normal use (desktop, web browsing, videos, etc.) I can't see it at all.

Is this considered normal for an IPS monitor, or is it worth returning/exchanging while it's still new?

I've attached photos of the black screen and normal use for reference. Thanks!
