Thread: Galaxy S2 Dead Pixels

  1. #1

    Default Galaxy S2 Dead Pixels

    Hi guys

    I got a brand new sealed S2 i bought in June. Over the time I noticed 1 dead pixel and then 2 up until last night. This morning I realized there is 5 dead pixels. The box still had MTN plastic covered over it when I bought it.

    Does dead pixels count as replace screen under warranty?

    Any physical defect should be repaired under warranty. Take it back.

    Ugh. Best to take it to Samsung or to MTN? Which will have it fixed the fastest?

    Edit: The reason I was asking about the dead pixels is because a year or 2 a friend of mine had a problem with his LCD monitor and had 2 dead pixels. They said they wont fix/replace unless it has 5(i think) or more dead pixels.

    Take it back where you bought it from. So in this case, MTN.

    I bought it online. The guy said warranty lies with MTN.
