02

Start Testing

Click Start to fill your screen with the selected test pattern. Use fullscreen mode for best results.

03

Identify Defects

Look for dead pixels (always black), stuck pixels (always one color), or hot pixels (always bright). Click on any you find to mark them.

04

Cycle Through Colors

Test multiple colors and patterns to ensure you catch all pixel defects. Use auto-cycle mode for systematic testing.

PIXEL DEFECT TYPES

Understand the different types of pixel defects you might encounter and what they mean for your display.

Dead PixelAlways appears black regardless of color displayed. Cannot be fixed.
🔴Stuck PixelAlways displays one color (red, green, or blue). May be fixable with pixel repair tools.
Hot PixelAlways appears bright white or colored. Usually indicates a manufacturing defect.
🟡Sub-Pixel DefectOnly one color channel (R, G, or B) is stuck. Less noticeable but still a defect.
🔲Cluster DefectMultiple adjacent pixels are defective. Usually indicates physical damage or manufacturing issue.
Normal PixelPixel displays correctly across all colors and patterns. No action needed.
COMMON QUESTIONS

A dead pixel appears black regardless of what color should be displayed, indicating the pixel is completely non-functional. A stuck pixel always displays one color (usually red, green, or blue) and may sometimes be fixable using pixel repair techniques.
Sometimes. Stuck pixels can occasionally be fixed by applying gentle pressure, using pixel repair software that rapidly cycles colors, or running the display for extended periods. Dead pixels cannot be fixed and require display replacement if under warranty.
Most manufacturers have a "dead pixel policy" that typically allows 3-5 dead pixels before considering a display defective. However, even one dead pixel in the center of the screen can be very noticeable and may qualify for replacement.
Yes, fullscreen mode provides the most accurate testing experience. Press F11 or use your browser's fullscreen option to maximize the test area and ensure you can see the entire display.
Test all colors, especially black, white, red, green, and blue. Dead pixels show up best on white backgrounds, while stuck pixels are most visible on their opposite color (e.g., red stuck pixels on cyan backgrounds).
Yes, this tool works on any display connected to your computer - monitors, laptops, tablets, or external displays. Just make sure the browser window covers the entire screen you want to test.
