I'm on my 4th phone, and each one has had a stuck pixel(s)!

I still have my original, which has one rather large pixel on the bottom left corner. I paid full price, and wanted to see if I could find one without any stuck or dead pixels. I have bought & returned 3 since because they all had pixel issues.

I'm 0-4 so far, and do not know if I will try any more....

I only notice most of them on a completely black screen, and I always have brightness turned to the max. (I keep mine at maximum brightness every day, not only when looking for issues.)

I had one in the bottom left hand corner , barely noticeable though and recently noticed another in the centre of the dock ... again barely noticeable! While it idnt bothering me and iam happy with the phone, Iam not sure ill buy another htc when i decide to upgrade, I have never had this issue with samsung and its not the only issue i have had, Although any issue encountered has been minor , theyre should not be any at all, I didnt get this phone on an upgrade, i paid 600 euro for this phone on pay as you go and although iam happy with it, I dont feel its as reliable as my s3!
 
I am going to keep mine then and not bother with the dice roll. I have a couple very faint pixels like you only visible on a dark screen in a dark setting with brightness up. I couldnt even get them to show the ATT rep when I tried to exchange. (Too bright in the store.) Felt like an ***.

Decided to keep the thing and not have to bother with multiple returns if the one I got back was worse.

This same thing happened to me when I attempted to return mine. I saw 10 dead pixels when I was at home in a darker room but when I went back to AT&T I couldn't get them to show up at first. I finally ended up putting my sweater over it so they could see them and I got refunded.
 
They must all be from the same batch, which leads me to believe that the entire batch has this problem. But if it's only one pixel, why does it bother you so bad?

It's not uncommon for smartphones to have at least a few dead pixels when you get them. Heck, it's acceptable for flat screen tvs to have at least 9.
