Pixels Policy
English
or blue patterns ("defective pixels"). Adjacent dots are dots located directly
next to each other.
Customers are required to check their LCD panel immediately after purchase.
To identify defective pixels, the LCD panel should be examined under normal
operating conditions as mentioned above, preferably in its native display
resolution, and with a 90 degrees viewing angle.
A LCD HDTV will be considered dead on arrival (D.O.A.) with regards to defective
pixels on the LCD panel when any one of the following criteria is met:
A total of 7 defective pixels including both bright dots and dark dots are
present (the typical 30" LCD Television screen has 1 million pixels), or
2 or more pairs of adjacent bright dots are present, or
3 adjacent bright dots are present, or
3 adjacent dark dots are present.
In view of customers' concerns about dead pixels, SyntaxBrillian would like to address
that defective pixels are not ultimately avoidable with the current LCD industry
standard panel manufacturing processes. We always strive to improve our
technology and minimize the chance of occurrence of defective pixels by
applying strict screening processes in our factory production processes.
However, SyntaxBrillian cannot guarantee that a return unit to our customers will be
100% free of defective pixels.
For questions, please call our toll free service number in the USA at 888-Syntax-Brillian-8.
