And the screen looks fantastic. Some people here had me nervous and if you’ve been on the thread you’d think it was the end of the world and you’d have to instant RMA your device due to dead pixels.

Just wanted to add a positive note. My LE arrives pristine with no issues whatsoever.

    Just RMA it, or return it and buy the regular model (I would make mention in the return request that there are dead subpixels or stuck subpixels).

    You can fix stuck ones, but not dead ones.

      Is there any way to initiate an RMA without the whole put in a ticket and wait for 3-4 days for someone to respond business?

        No, just do it though, play on the console in the meantime. It’s not like they disable it or anything while you wait.

        Unless it is unplayable due to the pixels, might as well get some use out of it.

        They only give you the label though, hopefully you kept the box or else you’ll need to find one or buy one (not really an issue in all honesty), my RMA label was through UPS, it cost me like $18 for box & packing, probably took 15 minutes with 12 of them spent in line b/c of old people.

        Absolute worst case you go through 2-3 RMA’d units with issues, before you just refund and get the regular model.

        The screen costs a lot more than $90, it will probably be $200 or more. Honestly if they had just offered me $100-200 to keep it, I would have.

          Nah. I think I will hold. Can’t really see the stuck sub pixels when playing so not worried about it. All of my buttons are perfect and build is spot on so not going to risk something worse and waste time. If it becomes a huge issue, I’ll just repair it myself.
