Make sure you to run a dead pixel check before you start tinkering… now to go dumpster diving for my old steam deck ;=;

    3 dead pixels on my LE deck. I could live with the one in the corner but the other two are towards the middle of the screen. At least the uniformity on this panel is excellent, no green tint like the OLED switch.

      The green tint on the OLED Switch was horrendous in dark scenes and people acted like I was crazy when pointing it out. This display, even with the dead pixel I have on my LE Deck, is one of the best OLED panels I’ve ever used.

      Sorry about the three dead on yours. Most of my displays, including my OLED displays in my house, have dead pixels so I’m not completely surprised that my OLED Deck has a dead pixel. I’m debating playing the screen lottery, but since I don’t notice it while playing games I think I’m going to hold onto it for at least a year and maybe use it as an excuse with Valve to exchange for a new one as a ‘manufacturing defect’ even though it’s within spec according to Valve.
