Zero Defective Pixel Warranty for LCD Monitors from Samsung
Posted by Jason Dunn in "NEWS" @ 05:09 PM
"Samsung Electronics Co. (KSE:05930), the world's largest liquid crystal display (LCD) maker, said Thursday it will offer a so-called zero-pixel-defect warranty for LCD monitors sold in South Korea. Under the policy, which is to be effective from January 1, Samsung Electronics said it will replace LCD monitors for free if customers find a single defective pixel in the flat-panel screens within six months of purchase."
This is a great start, even if it's only in South Korea for now. My hunch is that Samsung is testing this to see if they lose money on it or not. Personally, I'd gladly pay an extra $50 or more to ensure that the brand of monitor I'm buying is pixel-perfect. What about you?
