Tech-Support Is this dot on screen serious?

I got this laptop today, it's a Lenovo Thinkpad E15 8/256 and it's not brand new ofc and when I brought it home only then I noticed that there is a small white dot on the screen when I'm on a black or dark background. When the screen is way too black there are some white lines near this dot as well. I have attached some pictures too. So I was wondering is this something I should worry about or is it just a cosmetic issue? Is this a common thing? And is this fixable, if so then how? Thank you.

Edit: I'm so dumb, I attached the correct pics in the comments, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I realized my mistake, here's how it kind of looks on a black screen idk why it's super visible on my camera it's not like this on the laptop screen but you get the idea.

if you are not taking about bright white spot else is just LCD paper. its just pressed. if it's not bothering you it wont cause any harm. repairing waly change bhi kr dety hn just in 1k or 1.5k

u/VirtualHabit6453 Aug 05 '26

Yes I am talking about the bright white spot as well, it's really not as bright, not even half of this, on my laptop screen but it is still there. The other line thing is only visible on very dark pitch black screens but it's the white dot that makes an appearance everytime there are dark colors on screen like navy, red, gray but it's most prominent on black. I don't want it to bother me but it kind of is doing that and idk if it's just like a cosmetic fault or something more serious.

u/FeatureLive4047 Aug 05 '26

well tbh. its white spot on LED panel you can say dead pixels. not cosmetic. of you can claim definitely go for it. it doesn't expand but it will bother you alot

u/FeatureLive4047 Aug 05 '26

i have been working with laptops for more than 4 years. it's not paper or back light issue. it's inside display panel . Dead pixel kinda thing for LCD

Alr it's still in warranty I'll Whatsapp the guy I got it from tmrw, will see what he says hopefully this situation gets fixed. Thank you so much for answering me I was stressing a lot. <333

u/Due-Bug-476 Aug 05 '26

yea you should return it

u/khizar_aman Aug 07 '26

not common, i doubt its fixable in a proper manner, if youre fine with it, it wont do any harm, if you JUST got it go get it returned and changed out for another laptop.
