Hi Everyone

I have what looks like a dead pixel, however I can still see it when I turn the screen off I can still see what resembles a white mark.

This leads me to believe there is dust behind the screen, will this be covered by Apple if I take it to the Genius Bar will I have to pay for repairs on this?
 
I had the exact same issue, a small white spec. Took it to Apple Store in Manchester, and was changed out no further questions asked. The Genius didn't even bat an eye :)

On a tangent, I'm not quite sure how dust does get under there. I thought the panel was fused to the glass on retina models? Ah well, Apple will sort you out regardless.
