Backlight bleed through and blue haze on The Frame 65in

[usercrR1i5fyMx]

I recently bought a new The Frame 2022 65" and immediately noticed severe backlight issues that are visible on any dark content. The unit was still under warranty so Samsung service came out and replaced the entire LCD module. The new LCD is actually worse than the original one. There is also tape residue visible on the top and bottom of the screen. Is this bad QC or bad engineering? I expected better from a $1600 TV.

The first photo shows a solid black test video. The backlight pattern shines through and the whole image looks blue/purple. This gets worse when viewing from an angle.

The second photo is the TV off with window light reflecting which shows tape markings on the screen from the new LCD packaging.
