I noticed this too immediately on first startup when it prompted for language. Just like yours, I saw (and still see) a kind of white streak down the same side. I hoped it was only an artifact of startup and would go away once it got going. But nope, it remains.
The streak, as I call it, is only visible when the onboard lighting is used. And it remains on the same physical side even when the screen is automatically rotated (ie. along the button side).
I can say my defect doesn't look as pronounced as yours, but it bothered me the screen wasn't pristine from edge to edge. So I took it back to the store. They had one other that they let me examine, but the store lighting was such that I couldn't be sure if it also had the defect (but seemed to, at least in my imagination). And that one also seemed to have a tiny touch of "too bright"ness (bleed?) right in the bottom corner, same side. So I've kept the one I bought originally, for now. I still have options to return or exchange.

It is uneven, the left side brighter than the right side

Yes, noticed this too.
It's a shame because the device is otherwise a thing of beauty: light and very responsive, screen rotation works well, buttons are fine. Setup was straight forward, connecting to wifi, overdrive, calibre all seamless and without incident.
