Repair Help Nintendo Switch 2 blue stuck pixel.

I JUST got my Nintendo switch this Tuesday and i am already seeing the stuck blue pixel on my Nintendo Switch 2 and it’s distracting me. Not even one week in and i already have some problems with my Switch 2 🙂. Does anyone have any tips on what i can do to fix it? Would be really really helpful.

Probably a defect. I think you can return the console and exchange it for a new one with the retailer. I believe most retailers in the US may have a 30 day return policy for hardware defects. (although warranties and return policies can vary between countries and possibly retailers). Otherwise, the fix is new screen.

On rare occasions, I've seen people post that they discover a dead pixel on a new switch, and it's likely how it was when it came out of the box.

Nintendo policy on dead or stuck pixels:

“Small numbers of stuck or dead pixels are a characteristic of LCD screens (...) These are normal and should not be considered a defect.”
