Full Version: Pinebook LCD pixel errors?

I'm using my Pinebook on a daily base. Actually, this is my No#1 portable, taking it everywhere with me.
I use it extensively for web browsing, email, remote controlling Linux and Windows desktops (FreeRDP, X2Go).

So, it is in real production use.

I'm not sure if it arrived like this or changed over time but I realized that it has a kind of pixel errors now.
These are larges ares, I mean more pixel than one. They are lighter then their surroundings and are best visible
when the screen is white.

I made a photo of it (slightly enhanced in GIMP).

What could it be? Will it be worse?

I also have a dead pixel on my Pinebook. Luckilly I do not use for anything serious - I have Lenovo Carbon X1 for that.
I bought Pinebook to use it as an extra terminal and place to test my ARM applications written in the D programming language (http://dlang.org).

I call them "dead" simply because they do not change, but yes - my "problematic" pixels look exactly like yours. However, I only have two, and they are both luckily in the top left corner so they do not bother me much...
