It is a type of lcd panel. Next gen vr doesn’t mean next gen in displays. Otherwise we’d have some kind of nano led.
Is it dead or stuck? If it’s stuck, maybe you can fix it. Try looking to see if there’s any color in it. My 8k has some sort of stuck/dead pixel too, but I haven’t bothered trying to fix it yet. It doesn’t bother me enough. I think it might just be stuck though, because I recall it having color one time.

This is awful @tumblebone and your frustration is completely justified. Hopefully it was just some numpty on the service desk who gave you that utterly inadequate response and other Pifolk will remedy.
It’s a long shot, but have you tried this to shift stuck pixels?

Thats really not acceptable at all.
Its ok for them to give you the option of a voucher as long as it doesnt affect further warranty, but not ok to deny replacement.
You should fight this all the way.
What good is another $100 pimax voucher to a backer anyway?
None of the acessories worth using it on are anywhere near ready.
Everytime pimax offer their $100 vouchers, it reminds me of this

How about users that have received but are simply not happy with the headset and would like a refund? I am one such user…
Sorry, Neither us nor the shop platform(kickstarter) have such a refund policy if the headset doesn’t have quality issue. Could you told me the detail reason that you are not happy?

The headset is not as advertised, your advertising says the following…
"Over 16 million pixels lighting up a clear world
Richer details present a more vivid world of VR
Even Unable to distinguish between virtual and real
Get rid of the SDE(Screen-door Effect)"
This is a bold face lie !!! Not only is there still considerable screen door effect, but there is so much distortion around the edges that it is impossible to, and I quote “Even Unable to distinguish between virtual and real”.
Instead of replying on this forum, how about simply answering my emails?
Cool will add you to one such user’s pm on this.

Subjectivity. Best to sell it as you will make more than you invested easily. For some sde is eliminated. Maybe a misleading marketing ploy; much like “Dynamic Contrast 1,000,000:1” vs real contrast ratio.
What the heck is going on! After all the hassle and hatred HTC earned for their support, Pimax shouldn’t be going down the same way. Things like that spread like a virus, influencing a lot people leading them to rethink their investment in a new Headset from Pimax.
Pimax really have to clear things up und become more responsive immediately. Bad support is really a business killer!!! It’s a premium product, the support should be that aswell. @mozi thanks for replying. I suggest that you present your answers in the forum more prominently, so that your support becomes more visible. A lot of people out there need to see your investment in order to gain confidence in Pimax as a firm!
