    Default Bittersweet M17x r4 news

    I just got my m17x r4 in today, yay. Sadly something about it is driving me nuts. there are two small greyish marks on the screen visible on a white background. Either dead pixels or dust. Now.. should i try and disassemble to clean if its dust, which it may not be, it may be a stuck pixel. Or demand and exchange? I dont even know if that warrants an exchange. Any one know details on this or had a similar issue? Thanks.

    Send it back while you can if you are not satisfied. Don't disassemble the screen.

    I understand how you feel about waiting, but for the amount you paid, you should expect a system that is nothing less than perfect. If I were you I would keep returning them until there was one I was completely satisfied with.

    call on tell them your issue

    I doubt they will ask you to send it back, but instead, hopefully send out a tech to replace your screen at your house. most likely within 1-2 working days

    congrats on the new machine!

    This is absolutely spot on. Demand n exchange or a full refund.

    Getting support on site is better I guess.
