Green, red, blue, dark, and white dots remains

If an image remains in the screen for an extended period of time, it may be imprinted in the screen and leave an after-image. This usually disappears after a few hours

This is characteristic of liquid crystal and is not caused by a malfunction or deterioration of the liquid crystal. The after-image will disappear after a set amount of time

The remaining dots are normal characteristic of the liquid crystal used in today’s technology.
