What is a Dead Pixel?
A dead pixel appears as a tiny black dot. It no longer illuminates because all sub-pixels have failed. Dead pixels are permanent and require screen replacement.
What is a Stuck Pixel?
A stuck pixel stays on one color (red, green, blue, or white). It still receives power and can often be fixed.

Fix Methods
