zachman123 Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Same, I'm going to try and peel of the sticker that says it includes Spiderman 2 when I exchange mine for a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylejn Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 No dead pixels on mine. I bought the $25 thing from EB just in case I did, but it looks like I dodged the bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gelob Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Have you guys even considered that the quote in the psp manual might pretain to after a few months you get a dead pixel. I mean im not OMG i have a dead pixel boy over here although i think if there is a considerable amount of people out of the 1mil that were shipped who have dead pixels it might be a problem. Oh yeah for all of you who want to test, just load them up on the psp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You paid full, why should you have to suffer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bontakun Posted March 27, 2005 Author Share Posted March 27, 2005 i returned mine to best buy and it seems i'm worse off, so i'll get another exchange when they get the next shipment (i got the last one for my exchange), anyways now i've got two stuck pixels (at least they're almost right on the edge now) and one pixel that is just a bit dimmer than the rest (on all colors) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted March 27, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 27, 2005 thats the thing, i think if i exhchange mine now, i will have the same problems. all of my friends who got one (4) had the same problem. did you give teh spidy 2 back? although it prolly didn't matter because you got another one. here are pics i posted on the official thread: https://www.neowin.net/forum/uploads/post-4...96189_thumb.jpg https://www.neowin.net/forum/uploads/post-4...96124_thumb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I think this topic would make a good poll. Definately be interesting to see all these statistics compiled in one place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JrDZ13 Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 At the best buy I work at, we had 36 returns on 120 sales - the day after - because of dead pixels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bontakun Posted March 27, 2005 Author Share Posted March 27, 2005 (edited) I think this topic would make a good poll. Definately be interesting to see all these statistics compiled in one place. 585678170[/snapback] polls i've seen on psp specific sites lead me to believe that only 60% of psp's are pixel anomaly free, about 20% have 1-2 pixel problems, and the remaining percentage have 3+ bad pixels, the good news is that despite all these problems sony seems to be replacing them (you have to push them, they won't volunteer this) and most stores are pretty good about exchanging them, i bought the best buy protection plan so i luckily get unlimited exchanges for the next two years (i love the psp, but i'm also OCC so i notice every defect in things) At the best buy I work at, we had 36 returns on 120 sales - the day after - because of dead pixels. 585678175[/snapback] that's roughly 25% in 1/30 of the return time, not a particularly optimistic percentage, i severly hope this is a issue that is fixed fast, this handheld has the ponential to do what no one else has (take on nintendo in the handheld market), but without good quality control it's going to hard to keep customers and get more of them Edited March 27, 2005 by The Beav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
