Dark spot on lcd

#1 Post by Peaceable Frood » Fri Feb 09, 2007 12:20 pm

I have a z61m but recently I've noticed a small dark blotch on my screen on the right side of the display. I'm guessing this is a Mura but it seems kind of small compared to pictures I've seen. Is it possible to get the LCD replaced? It's not really noticeable unless I move my head to directly focus over it.

I actually had a similar issue with a Z61p that I just got. It had a section of about 6x6 pixels covered by a dark spot that was really noticeable from certain angles.

Lenovo replaced the laptop. As far as I know there is no way to fix this issue.

On a side note, here is an excellent article on all the ways LCD panels can suck.
