hi everybody, i'm new to this forum, over from the galaxy player forum. I just purchased my first tablet the other day, a galaxy tab 3 8.0. wow what a nice little device, a HUGE upgrade from a galaxy player. anyway a few days after getting it, I notice while in the email app setting up my email a little white dot (about the size of a pixel or 2 ) in the bottom left hand of the screen. I did some searching and am really not sure what it is. I don't think it is a dead pixel as they are black from what I have read. I don't think it is a stuck pixel either as it is NOT visible on a black screen. funny thing is it is more visible the lighter the color on the screen. I ran numerous pixel fixing apps to no avail. also tried tapping, pushing on and rubbing screen, still there. I also tried a factory reset and took aff the screen protector just to be extra sure that it was the actual screen and not something under the screen protector, no luck.
I finally sent it back to amazon for an exchange, the new one should be here in a day or two.
does anyone else have this on their screen/know what it is? I am just curious. it appears to just be a defect. you can easily check by running a bad pixel detector app which basically just turns the screen all one solid color (which you can choose) and the "bad" part is easily visible this way.
