four monitors from four different shops , and every one i get i found dead pixels !..
first one ASUS IPS panel , had no dead pixels at the beginning but after 8 months dead pixels started to appear.
second & third monitor was TN Panel , and i found dead pixels once i bought them.
same happened with PLS panel and that was the 4th .. until i gave up and didn't know what to do , its year 2015 and still no solution for dead pixels !!

now , is there is any type of panel chances are less to have dead pixels than other panels? or its common in all panels?
 
Solution
I've found dead pixels to be more common on integrated displays, such as laptops and all-in-one desktops. That said, monitors aren't immune; I've had my share of low and high-end ones with dead pixels. My current IPS panel from ViewSonic is the most reliable.

Unfortunately, dead pixels are just one of those things.

thank you for replying .. i've heard that you don't found dead pixels in PLS Panels like others panels, its not very common on PLS, but dunno if that's true or false..

dead pixels on my ASUS IPS are growing by time although i don't even touch the screen, i don't move it anywhere.
i never get it ..what is the cause of that? what cause dead pixels to grow without any reason?
 
You and me are just very obsessive about dead pixel,do not believe people here tells,"I have never seen dead pixel on my monitör etc." If someone check by his monitor one by one,He will see at least one pixel has a problem,They are not checking it very very carefully,that's why they are not seeing it,I bought LG monitör 5 years ago dead pixels are appeared and I returned it to RMA then they sent me one new monitor and again one dead pixel appeared on screen and I lived with it 5 years,then I bought philips monitor and white dead pixels are appeared after 2 months and they accepted to RMA,and Warranty sent me new monitor and again gray dead pixel or kind of dust appeared inside panel again,Actually It is not common,all monitors,TVs %100 percent have at least one problem pixel in their panel anyway This is very very normal thing,That's what I believe and If you RMA your monitor When new monitor arrives It will be not different from last one,guaranteed...
 


thanks for your reply.. yes i think we can live with it, but the problem is if dead pixels spread by time that will be annoying. on my IPS at the beginning it was only 1 black dead pixel at the bottom, and now its more than 5 dead pixels most of them beside each other.. also the gray or white pixels can be fixable, but the black one is hard to fix.
i don't know what makes it spreading..
