Does anyone else have dead pixels on their P800? I have two, and one of them is right in the middle. At first I thought it was dust under the screen but I really think its a dead pixel. On Monday I'm going to look at it under a microscope to make for sure.
Has anyone else had this, and does anyone now SE's policy on what will be fixed and what will not?
Thanks... |

I had one white one on the right side in the middle, you could only see it when the background was black, but it still irked me. I got my p800 from expansys, and they exchanged it for me. You should exchange it if your still under warranty. |

I had and still have a dead pixel. It always stays blue, and hence is only visible on black background. The repair-center in Switzerland refused to replace it tho... They probably didn't see anything because they didn't check the display with black background, but white only. And I really pointed out to the guy at the service-point, that it was only on black bg...
I'll try again when the next big upgrade is out... |

I also have 2 dead pixels and I bought my p800 only 20 days ago , should it be replaced by the shop or by the service point(at least if they accept to replace it) |

Im on my third P800 in three weeks! The Camera (and occasionally the sound!) didn't work on my first P800. My second p800 had a blue screen and now - my third p800 has a dead pixel and dust under the screen!
Not sure if Carphone Warehouse will give me another!  |

My third one is excellent, I update it to R2F and it’s amazing. |

Would I be able to get it replaced under warranty directly by SE? I don't think the company I bought it from will replace it...they're pretty much the type of company that barely even takes returns. |

I had a dead pixel on my first P800, but got it replaced as soon as possible! only downside was that the first p8 was more stable :( oh well, just need an update and i'll be happy ;)
