Dead pixels?

[DMytro]

Hi everyone, today I noticed a thin white strip of (presumably) dead pixels on the bottom of the screen. Did somebody else experience this and/or knows whether it maybe somehow software related?
I happened to whack my watch reasonably hard today, on accident of course, bus since I have a white watchface I didn’t notice anything until about 10 hours later. Also, does sb know how much a display replacement costs? This strip doesn’t obstruct the view of data, but is somewhat esthetically displeasing. Yet I will probably hold off replacement for now, just curious mostly.

@dmytro
damn, doesn’t look good
I would ask Suunto service for a quote

[surfboomerang]

Ai, that is very unfortunate. Hopefully Suunto can do something about it.

@dmytro Probably not going to help but I would try soft and hard reset, just in case.

[DMytro]

@cosme-costa that’s what I thought too, thanks.

@dmytro Come on, man, don’t fool us, you are looking for a reason to buy a new Suunto

Hopefully, your watch gets fixed at zero cost

[DMytro]

@skifun watch is 3yo, so probably not.
Nah, I will keep my s9 for a couple more years. Haha, waiting for s11p!

@dmytro of course, the first sentence of my comment was a joke, the second sentence was a serious comment.
Yeah, I’m also waiting for a S10/11 or however they call it.

Hi there, can you tell me what the solution to this problem was in the end, did you send it back for repair, I am having the exact same issue with my Baro 9?

[DMytro]

@Kloppite nope, I was reluctant to wait the repair to conclude, so I just changed my theme to white and forgot the dead pixels are there. The surface grew a bit over the time but the watch is still very usable.
