Didn't Apple started doing screen replacements? Or do they still replace your phone with dead pixel?
Got a tip for us?

iPhone 6 dead pixel!

Maybe its just me, but if you posted that pic without explanation, I'll bet not one person would have noticed the dead pixel in such an obscure place.
One of just yet another of many reasons why stock is so hard to find - people find one molecule of their iPhone out of place and they demand a new one.

People have right to buy a product without a fault. But regardless, Apple keeps separate stock of phones for things of this nature as far as I know, the replacement don't come in brand-new sealed retail box (at least has always been the case for me when I got the phone replaced under warranty at the Apple Store). Things of this nature is covered by the warranty.
Sorry to offend you so much.
As is stated earlier, I was ambivalent towards it. I asked an Apple representative and due to the rare nature of this condition, and they requested that I return the unit to them so they could look at it. Again, sorry to offend your sensibilities.

No. It is at the bottom of the repair email Apple sent & people always used to post asking the prices... it stopped after I put them in my signature.
Black, White, Red, Green, Blue
Normally those five should give you clear result wether if you have dead pixel or not.
iPhone 6 dead pixel!
I just had my 6 replaced for a dead pixel. The replacement has light bleed out the mute switch and the top of the display is dimmer then the bottom half. I'm debating whether I even wanna bother swapping this one right now...

That's a single dead pixel. Very annoying but it's good to hear they will replace it. Most companies will only replace it if there are 3 or more.I feel like I am one of VERY few people to have this issue, but I have a dead pixel on my iPhone 6. Apple has already spoken to me about this & there is a replacement on the way. I'm just curious if anyone else has had this issue?
I had the exact same thing on my replacement. I ended up returning the phone. I may try again in a month.
I also went through a few 6's that had dead pixels. Gave up for a few days then just re-bought. I'm shelling out $750 for a product it should be flawless. Local Apple Store was very understanding, and my current phone was a retail swap which was super cool of them to do. It probably deprived someone else of a phone that day which stinks, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Apple should have better QC when it comes to screens.
Same thing on mine. Replacement has a stuck pixel (original had a dead one) and a really weird backlight issue. I'll hang on to it for now tho.
Yes, I have one on my 6 Plus, found it on the first night. But it's so small that now I don't notice it and I'm not going to get it replaced.
In Apples case its a replacement, not a repair.
Also with the car, if you find an imperfection in the paint etc, I would advise against them repainting that panel. it never comes out identical to when the car was first painted.

OP, impressed you found that! Going have to have a much better look at mine now
Ah, as is indeed difficult to detect sarcasm on the internet I most definitely was being sarcastic
The point is that when you're spending this much money, you're going to want it perfect.
