It's been a couple of weeks since Valve unveiled Steam Deck OLED, an updated iteration of its handheld gaming device. The biggest improvement was the addition of an OLED display which undoubtedly elevates the gaming experience. Samsung Display is believed to be supplying the OLED panels for this handheld gaming device. At one point, China's […]
Am I the only one who got an LE with no dead pixels or something? So many comments talking about how LEs “more than likely have defects”. Wtf are you basing that on? The handful of posts on reddit?
Yes, the vocal minority is historically known to always be a good representation of reality, and definitely doesn’t hyperfocus on non-issues or blow things out of proportion.
Same, after reading all the posts about dead pixels. I rushed to test my display and couldn’t find anything wrong with it. Either I’m lucky, or the vocal minority has made it seem like most displays have issues.
If they’re green they’re stuck not dead dead pixels are black. Stuck pixels are normally green, blue, red, or yellow. You may have seen stuck pixels on your TV screen. You can google on solutions to get rid of a stuck pixel
I think they’re comparing the number of people with non-LE units saying their Samsung panel is flawless to the number of people with LE units saying their BOE panel has dead pixels.
Just reading the thread, it’s overwhelmingly negative for BOE. This isn’t for lack of non-LE examples, either.
You’re not wrong, I havent seen any Samsung dead pixel posts either. Just sick of how negative this sub has been the last few weeks. First it and still it’s the etched vs gloss nonsense and now it’s samsung vs BOE. It’s exhaustingly obnoxious.
To be fair though, faulty displays is a pretty big issue compared to the screen issue which is a non-issue. People are completely justified being upset at receiving faulty displays being put on only the most expensive model
This will partially be down to confirmation bias though.
All the posts seem to suggest only BOE panels have dead pixels, so only people with BOE panels are going to heavily scrutinize theirs.
People will check which panel they have, and if it’s Samsung the majority will just go “Phew, okay, I haven’t noticed anything yet either” and carry on. People with BOE will assume the worst and look at each individual sub-pixel.

I just checked mine and I have 3 dead green pixels. Almost in a perfect diagonal from the top left, middle, and bottom right of the screen.

Unfortunately you’re wrong. The OLED panels don’t have stuck pixels but rather they have dead subpixels.
