Bestbuy in canada has the 2025 back on sale for 399 canadian and has them instock again after being out for a few weeks. So this morning before work I went in and picked one up. Got it home, set it up and then the first thing I did was run dead pixel buddy. I was relieved when I couldnt find a single problem. I then played a little cs widescreen and watched a few minutes of a movie before going to work. I got home a little over an hour now and after tweaking simcity to run widescreen I noticed a dark pixel while panning across some water. Dropped back to windows, ran dpb again, and yup, there is now clearly a pixel near the top of the screen that will not go blue
. On all other colours it appears to be more of a faded pixel. I'm pretty angry that it somehow went bad when I know that pixel was fine hours before.
I found this webpage that says viewsonic has a 30 day zero dead pixel policy, so I should be fine asking bestbuy for a replacement correct? Has anyone had any experience with bestbuy and returning/exchanging lcds?
