About LCD panel pixel policy

The sharp detail and vivid colors from each and every BenQ LCD panel is made up of tiny pixels, and each tiny pixel has three smaller individual red, green and blue pixel. Thus, a single BenQ LCD panel consists of millions of tiny pixels.

During LCD panel manufacturing of BenQ LCD monitors/Large Format Display/Digital Signage product, it is not uncommon for pixels to remain "stuck", a phenomenon which an imperfection either a colored pixel which is always ON (bright), or always OFF (dark). This is considered normal and does not affect the overall performance of BenQ display.

For more information, please follow the below document on BenQ LCD Monitor Dead Pixel Policy. Should the LCD panel is diagnosed to contain or exceeding the following number of non-conforming pixel (dot) within the duration of Warranty period, the LCD panel is then considered as a defect and can be claimed as in warranty service.

All the Black Air Bubble cases as shown in the picture above are not supported in warranty and are consider as CID (Customer Induced Defect).

Please read the belowcauses of Air bubble appear on the panel.

   a.    Monitor turn on too long (temp. up)

   c.    Abnormal Humidity

Below are the pictures showed you the position which is to be damaged:

We simulated to put the cell into the ESD bag and put some water from the bottom of bag, put it under aging box at 60 degree high temp., and the bubble is appeared on the cell.

1. Air Bubble is due to cell lead & seal to be corroded, so the air can go into the panel inside.

2. Observe the cell lead & seal corrosion position, found front bezel to be corroded & top polarizer with dirty material.

3. In BenQ experience, it’s chemical pollution from user site un-proper usage (customer’s issue).

We could see the air bubble on the bottom line of monitor and when the bezel is damaged, the LC between 2 pcs of glasses will be pushed outside and air will go into the inside of panel.

The black air bubble is movable and it will move to the middle or top side of panel due to air will move to top side.

When the bezel is damaged and by user un-proper operation on the monitor (careless put unknown liquid into panel) when cleaning the monitor with detergent and flow down into the bezel and seal, more than 1 or 2 months will cause the seal damaged.
