Well we can add me to the people who got the LE and have a dead pixel. Really sucks after waiting almost 2 weeks for it to arrive.

I know we’ve heard this a lot over the last week! But I just want to thank people for raising the issue, providing links to pixel checkers so I didn’t have to google and for all of the comments saying to return and not stand for a dead pixel on this new machine (I’ll admit I was close to just saying fuck it and keeping it last night but you all helped keep me in check)

I’ve submitted a support request so now it’s back to the waiting game for another few weeks. Hopefully their LE pool is still big for all of these swaps/returns

    The majority of the 99.99% who received the Limited Edition (LE) didn’t experience any dead pixels. It’s just that those who did have dead pixels are the ones talking about it here. It gives the impression that there are many cases when, in reality, it’s not the case because everyone who didn’t have issues didn’t come here to discuss it

    hey maybe report it now, and send it back after you’ve had a bit of your initial fun?

    It makes the wait for fedex even more difficult.

    yeah am interested to know what plan is, and first ppl to get their rma’s back if they are just getting a new lottery console or if at least there’s some QA to check if the panels in decks they are sending back are good?

    512 GB here. Dead pixel and also a horrible audio feedback issue on my headphone out. Complete dogshit stuff for a new device, although the screen is very lovely besides the quality control problem. I have an RMA open now.

    Those posts about their LE being fine claiming to be “offering balance” but really trying to stop the reputation of their “limited edition” investment plummeting are so transparent.

    How widespread the failure rate is still to be empirically measured, but there is clearly a significant number of defective screens making it out to customers who are reaching out to the community here to let us know.
