dead pixel is a defective pixel that does not display the correct color. On
the screen, it usually looks like a tiny black or white dot, which can also be
any other color. In the manufacturing process, even if a pixel on the tiny
dust particles, or in the course of a slight impact during transport, may have
a dead pixel. In the ISO 13406-2 specification, four categories of acceptable
screen dead pixels are defined: the first is the best product, and the fourth
is the worst. Almost all manufacturers use the second level as a guarantee of
the product, allowing a certain number of dead pixels exist, such as more than
the tolerance will change the screen. Since the manufacturer is of the opinion
that this screen is permitted by the ISO specification, we are not responsible
