How many dead/stuck/flashing (sub) pixels does your UIQ3 phone have ? |

I've just noticed one stuck pixel while checking the screen of my phone.
I saw it by chance during boot up on the black SE screen and checked the same spot afterwards with a black pic and yes, it's there.
And it's the only one visible to the naked eye.
But after checking with a magnifying glass I found several stuck sub pixels all over the screen, some are green and others are red.
Afterwards I checked the P1i of my wife and hers was the same, several stuck pixels all over the screen, maybe a few less than on mine.
I don't have any dead or flashing pixels, only stuck ones.
So how is yours ?
All you need is a magnifying glass and two pics:
A black one for stuck and flashing pixels and a white one for dead = black pixels.

I don't have any dead or flashing pixels, but what are "stuck" pixels supposed to be? |

The might not be dead pixels though. It may be little damage to the upper layer of the touchscreen which results with that.

A stuck pixel is when one or more of the blue, red and green sub pixels are always 'on', while a dead one is always 'off'.
And no, the (sub) pixels and their appearance aren't related with the touchscreen layer on the LCD.

Guys, it happens very rarely that a pixel dies, gets stuck or starts flashing after weeks or months.
A dead pixel is a production fault and you can notice it either immediately or soon after purchase.

yeah, manufacturer doesn't give guarantee for the 0 dead pixel thing just if you have a big lcd screen, like pc monitors(except some special 1's).
small lcd's like mobile phone lcd's have dead pixel warranty as i know. you dont have to stand to see them.

Well don't know if p1 warranty covers that but mine hasn't got any dead pixels. I was trying to say that damaged surface of the touchscreen can also result in changing colors (depends of the angle you are looking the screen at) so it looks like dead pixel. I hope you get me.

Hmm, I don't think I have any on mine... Certainly never noticed any at any rate...

Well I think if you use the stylus properly (or your fingers) and keep the touchscreen clean there won't be any damage on the screen surface or the screen itself... No dead pixels and etc...
