Stuck blue pixel, I think.

Hey guys, I noticed that there's a very small, and almost unnoticeable blue pixel that is stuck on my Zenfone 6 when the brightness is all the way up. On a black background. I was wondering if this is going to go away on its own down the line, or will it persist? I'm going to try some stuck pixel fix methods online and some apps overnight to see if it'll work, but I'd like to get to know someone else's opinion on it. Or even from Asus themselves. Thanks for reading this and hopefully this can be up for anyone else going through this.

Looks like I noticed two other cases on Reddit with this. One person had two of them and managed to get rid of them , except for one, so it seems like this is a bit of a thing, but on a very small scale. I'll continue to try software alternatives, but hopefully I can get in touch with someone

It's no big deal. If you do not perceive a defective pixel during normal work, it does not disturb you, I would probably not solve it. The fact that this is only the third case, however, does not speak at all about the actual number of similar problems. Because people simply do not perceive such minor defects, our display is fine enough, so you have to examine it in great detail and up close to capture similar problems and in different colors. So I wouldn't really solve it. The same with TV screens, many users have a number of defective pixels, and for years these TVs have been running and do not know about it and never mind.

While that may be true when it comes to perception of it of your average person, when I'm indoors with the brightness all of the way up on dark mode, I can see it as clear as day, especially on black backgrounds. I'd rather make sure I don't settle or anything when it comes to my Zenfone 6. I set up an RMA for the future after things slow down completely, and plan on sending it in, if I can't get it to go away with some software alternatives. I saw someone on Reddit in the UK mention he had a total of three and managed to get rid of two, so hopefully I can replicate whatever he did and see if it will go away. I'll probably send in photos of where it is to make sure the people that inspect it can see it clearly.

Then this is a different story of course.
Could you post a photo of your screen here how bad it looks?

Of course! I'll go ahead and post it right here. When you see the toggles in notifications, it's right under the flashlight toggle. I have a video of it, but it's too big to upload here, since the max is 50 MB of uploading.
