Everyone Do This iPad Dead Pixel Test On Your New iPad!

My ipad screen is perfect too. I have no dead pixels or light bleed. Very impressed with this ipad! No yellow tint either, although it is slightly warmer than my ipad 1. I like the warmer color. :)

Have a row of like 10 dead pixels or some sort of screen damage. Unbelievable. I've had to return each item in my sig multiple times. As much as I love Apple, every time I have to exchange a shiny new product I think more and more about spending my money elsewhere, if at all.

You must have some terrible luck. Only item in my signature I ever had to replace was the 3GS due to small cracks on the case (which I could've lived with).
 
No dead pixels, but I do have a pretty annoying green/blue/ pinkish tint which shifts depending on the viewing angle.
 
no dead pixels. I was kind of worried since my original iPad 2 had three dead ones, and my first replacement had 1. Unfortunately I still have clouding going on with the top right corner of my iPad 3.. but I've learned to live with it after the iPad 2 fiasco. I went through 6 iPad 2's last year and they all had the same lighting issue.
 
Screen is perfect! As already stated, Samsung did a great job.

One thing I would try for those of you that feel that your screen is a bit warmer than your iPad 2 is to go in pitch black room. I looked at the same time as doing the black light bleed and all was fine. Put my iPad 2 side by side with the 3rd gen and the new one is warmer, but only slightly.

All in all though, happy with the purchase today! :D
 
Dang that sucks, sounds like I'm the only one, what is the return policy for stuck pixels? Will they swap for a new one? Since I preordered can I return at the Apple store?
 
Crap I found one and it is in the middle of the screen. Figures I got it at Walmart.
 
First iPad, I absolutely love it. Screen is perfect. Thanks for the link to the test.
 
One! One dead pixel. But I'm not so sure I can bring myself to care enough to exchange it. This isn't something that causes surrounding pixels to want to die too, right? I would just feel like an ******* taking this back to the Apple store for the one tiny speck.

Mine's perfect.
