Screen & Dead Pixel Test

Comprehensive display testing tool that fills your screen with solid colors (red, green, blue, white, black) to detect dead pixels, stuck pixels, or color uniformity issues. Essential for checking new displays or troubleshooting screen problems.

Dead pixels are permanently off (black), while stuck pixels are permanently on (red, green, or blue). This tester uses full-screen color fills to make even single dead or stuck pixels visible. Professional display manufacturers use similar tests during quality control.

Helpful questions

Frequently asked questions about Screen & Dead Pixel Test

Use these answers to understand results, browser limitations, permissions, and sensible next troubleshooting steps.

What is the difference between a dead pixel and a stuck pixel?

A dead pixel usually stays black because it no longer lights up, while a stuck pixel remains locked on one color such as red, green, or blue. Full-screen color tests make both easier to spot because the faulty pixel stands out clearly against the surrounding area.

Should I test my screen at full brightness and lower brightness levels?

Yes. Some display issues are easier to notice at specific brightness levels. Backlight bleed, dim patches, color shift, and uneven uniformity can appear much more obvious when brightness changes, so testing more than one level gives a better picture of the panel's condition.

Can this screen test help when buying a new monitor or laptop?

Yes. It is useful during the first setup window when you want to check for dead pixels, severe backlight bleed, color uniformity problems, or obvious panel defects before your return period expires.
