Can I Get Rid of These Black Areas on my Screen?

My tablet has these weird black areas on the right side of my screen when held horizontally, bottom when held vertically. Even though they are only on one side, they darken the rest of the screen slightly. Just got it this Christmas. I haven't dropped it or hurt it in any other way. These just randomly appeared. I'm not too sure what they're from or if I can fix that. It still functions fine as well. Any ideas? Should I just take it to a store to get it fixed? I wanted to check before I did to check if I could do anything about it first.

@cinjin that is a backlight issue and it will not get any better by itself. Since you just have the tablet since Christmas, use your warranty to get it replaced/repaired

Alright thanks. Just wanted to check before doing so.

My screen just began doing the same thing. I suspect it is due to being packed a bit too tightly in my offshore bag. Will it worsen, or should it remain confined to this area, provided there is no further damage?

@benwyles no it will not. If it is related to pressure marks it will not get any worse.

That's a relief. Thankfully, it's only a small area at the edge. I appreciate it!
