Good Afteroon People,

I'm wondering about a small issue that i'm having with my LCD thats about 7 months old. I recognized a dead pixel and being a perfectionist it's all that I look at. I contacted the Brick and the warranty company that they deal with in regards to a fix/replacement. Apparently they do not get replaced until there is 7 pixel issues as there are millions in the screen. Naturally I was not impressed. Just wondering if this is normal in Sharp LCD's or any LCD's or any other manufacturers that they do not get replaced until a certain amount of pixels go bad.

Thanks,

It is normal with all LCDs and Plasma no matter who makes them.

I have one on my LCD on my laptop and one or two on my Plasma TV.

So the general rule in regards to different manufacturers is there has to be a significant amount before it's considered eligible to be replaced?

yes, there is a minimum number of dead pixels before the replace under warranty.

Great, thanks for the info! Kinda new to this scene so I didn't wanna go calling sharp looking for blood before I knew what I was talking about.
