How to read the results

A solid screen makes dust, smears, glow, discoloration, and uneven lighting easier to see. It is a viewing aid, not a calibrated measurement. Reflections, brightness, viewing angle, panel coating, and room light change what you see.

Common causes of failed tests

Uneven areas can come from fingerprints, dust, pressure damage, backlight bleed, panel uniformity, stuck pixels, image retention, or reflections. A solid screen cannot identify the cause by itself.

Troubleshooting before you replace hardware

Try several colors, reduce reflections, and compare at a normal viewing angle. For individual pixel checks, use the dedicated dead pixel test. If fullscreen is blocked, click the page and try again.

For setup and buying context, see the dead pixel test, white screen, and black screen.
