PS Vita: General Discussion

I had better not get any dead pixels on my vita.

I had such problems with the PSP last time. My first PSP had no less than 9 dead pixels it was horrible.

It looks like the Vita wont have as much of problem

I clicked the photo ready to laugh but I seen that dead pixel straight away

It's the worst case scenario though - the picture shows a black background on one of the Home pages (which is not a default setting - personally all mine are customised wallpaper pages) and of course it's a static screen.

Doesn't make it right/good or anything, just pointing out that in practice you are unlikely to notice it.

Of course it's possible.

Yea you probably Will see it on 17 inch monitor viewing the picture but on the 5 inch PS Vita screen it will be really small and hardly noticeable once your playing games/movies as longs as the background is not completely black.

Today I phoned the store from where I have pre-ordered my Vita to enquire about their dead/stuck pixel policy. At first they told me that unless it has like 3 dead pixels or more, they wouldn't replace it. I answered that I do not accept this and wanted a refund. They said they cannot give me a refund, just a store voucher. I told them that in the past I bought a Nintendo DS (this is true) and when I found it had a stuck pixel, I contacted Nintendo and got it replaced free of charge. I asked the guy if he would be a brand new car knowing that "it may have up to 3 dents".

Eventually they agreed to let me test the PS Vita in store and give me another one if it has a dead or stuck pixel.

The store chain I usually buy stuff has a 30 day return policy, "no questions asked". If you're not happy with your product you return it. How about that? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elkjøp

can't get that link working. Jesus. Just copy the whole thing.

That is awesome. No store would do that here.... otherwise they would end up getting 95% of the stuff returned everytime a holiday period is over
