Dead Pixel vs Stuck Pixel
A dead pixel usually stays black because it produces no light. A stuck pixel remains fixed on one color, such as red, green, or blue. Test several backgrounds because a defect can be easier to see on a contrasting color.
Check a New Monitor Before the Return Period Ends
Test the center, edges, and corners at normal viewing distance, then repeat at different brightness levels. Record the location of any persistent defect before contacting the seller or manufacturer.
