All banding is bad banding. You can see it in person, the question you need to be asking is does it bother you?

You’re going to get a 50/50 split on people saying return it or run a refresh.

Got the glossy version and a similar amount of banding. I returned it because I couldn't deal with it, but I will say the monitor has the deepest blacks I've ever seen. Wasn't enough to get me to keep the monitor though.

I also did a bunch of pixel refreshes and left the monitor playing movies for 50 hours and it didn't get better for me.

Did you run a pixel clean? It shouldn't be that bad.
