Hello.
I just got this monitor and the first thing I noticed was a single dead pixel in the center of the screen. Then I noticed in the bottom right corner a row of something like 20 pixels that are red/yellow. Though they don't show that much when sitting from a distance, so I'm probably not going to go through the hassle with trying to replace it.
The dead pixel in the center of the screen actually looks like a dust grain under the glas when I look at it with a flashlight, not sure though.
About the pixels in the bottom corner, do you think there is anything I can do about them?

There is also some light bleed, but not much from what I can see, though the whole screen is not really that black compared to my smaller ips Dell monitor that's standing next to it.
Perhaps the blacks on PB278Q isn't that good?

While I was carefully removing some dust, finger print and what looked like a scratch (but wasn't) I noticed that when I push gently on the screen, the glass will move in just a little bit.
It seems to sit firmly on the bottom but on the top the glass will move in when pushed carefully.
Does this sound normal to you?

Thanks in advance.

Here are two image of the light bleed. It's a bit more than I thought. Would you say this is acceptable? The second image is from a slightly different angle.
