The problem you are referring to was a major problem with the Forma. For me it was the reason why I returned the Forma.
I don't remember there being a light bleed issue on the Forma. There is a grey bar near the buttons that is very common. Exactly how dark the bar was, or how obvious it was, varied across the devices.

For the Clara HD, the glare problem seemed to be a manufacturing defect. Or something happened afterwards that affected the glue holding the bezel to the screens. Again, different devices showed different amounts of glare. I assume that whatever caused it has been fixed because the only comments I can think of about it recently are the recent comments about if it still happens, or if it affects the new devices.
