dead pixels

Hello, I recently purchased a brand new iPhone 15 and on the second day I noticed that the phone has either a dead pixel or a dust particle under the screen protector (I am not quite sure but that is what it looks like to me) and I’m kind of tempted to take it off and check. It also came with...

Hello, A few weeks ago two tiny black dots appeared on my screen, this week I found a third and a fourth. This worries me as I do my best to take great care of my laptop. I transport it in leather sleeve and I don't fill up my backpack. It's a MacBook Air M2, which is except for this dots...

The other day I accidentally knocked over a bottle of 70% solution isopropyl alcohol and some of it squirted onto my monitor and leaked into the enclosure through the bottom bezel. I wasn't able to turn off the monitor in time and now I have a line of dead pixels going down my screen. Is there...

Hello, As the title implies I was shocked last night to find out that a pixel just died on my 7-month-old 14-inch Macbook Pro. After the mini heart attack, I relaxed knowing that I have a 2 years warranty offered by my official Apple reseller from which I bought the laptop; but surprise struck...

My 14 inch m1 pro has developed two patches of dead pixels on the screen after 4 weeks of light use. The laptop has not left my desk so it cannot have been accidental damage.The laptop is due to be picked up by a authorized repair center today, with an estimated turn around time of 5-7...

Not really sure what happened but lately I'm noticing a lot of "green" pixels where you would expect to see "black" in video playback. Happens both while streaming and on downloaded videos played in VLC or QuickTime, etc. iMac Retina 5k 27-inch late 2015, bought new in 2017 so about 4 years of...

Hey, i bought MacBook Pro 15" 2019 about 4 months ago. Yesterday i've noticed some purple-red dots on the screen, and i've no idea what it can be and how they have appeared. May be it was faulty when i bought it, as it didn't fall or smth like this. I hope someone knows about this kinda issue...

So I decided to yesterday make the transition from iPhone XS to iPhone XR and here is my reasons why. I’m either extremely unlucky or Apples quality control has taken a massive hit and spiraled downward into a heap of explosive flames. I have now had 7 iPhone XS replacements, both XS and XS Max...

Hi, Has anybody experienced anything similar? The line appeared not too long ago - doesn’t go all the way like in other cases I have seen. Red, quite thin just above halfway up - most visible on dark backgrounds, less so on others. pics here: https://imgur.com/a/St98sc8 Mid 2010 A1312 (EMC...

Hey there! long time lurker, first time poster here. (Long post/Rant/Jumble of words incoming- TL : DR at the bottom!) I've been having a bit of a nightmare with my 2015 Macbook Pro these past few weeks, which has just recently developed an "exploded" pixel (example...

Hi, I have a strange problem with my MacBook Pro 15’ screen since some weeks : White dots / pixels appears randomly on the screen, and slowly fade to finally disappear... It looks like dead pixels but the strange thing is that it disappears as it arrives. It happens randomly, whatever I am...

Every new Apple product launch is followed by posts by a few people discovering quality control issues with their new device. I know it's rare but I'd like to check mine for defects when I get it. Curious to hear from others' experiences what some good things to check for are and how to check...

Hello, Today I have noticed that some (thousands) pixels (pixels on the left and the right side) on my iMac screen are white when displaying black. I have checked that this problem occurs both in OS X and Windows, so it is not a software issue. Are those dead pixels? What do you think about it...

Hello to everyone I was wondering if someone would have any idea what could've caused this. Suddenly some pixels on the bottom right corner burned out and the bigger issue is the screen became as on the photos and videos. The phone was always carried in a nice case and in my handbag I haven't...

Hi, I bought a -"perfect condition"- 13" Late 2013 rMBP on eBay and found this small greyish/white dot made of a group of very bright pixels, right on the left side of the screen. Though it's rather small, it's specially noticeable when scrolling up or down, becoming pretty annoying. Please...
