The LCD panel moves slightly when it is pushed with a finger Clattered sound might be heard

There are some looseness around the panel to prevent the damage to the panel.

The panel might move slightly when it is pushed with a finger, and clattered sound might be heard. This is not a malfunction.

There may be red spots, blue spots, green spots and black spots on the screen

An image on a LCD or Plasma TV screen is created by many small groups of dots known as pixels (which is similar to the image in a newspaper). It also naturally follows that higher panel resolutions contain more pixels. To create a colour image, each pixel consists of three tiny coloured dots (known as sub-pixels), one each of red, green and blue. Each one of these dots is precisely controlled by the electronics of the TV to produce the picture.

Whilst Panasonic maintains the highest standards in manufacturing technology and processes in the construction of these panels, there are a number of allowable pixel/sub-pixel failures that still allow the panel to be defined as a good panel. It is not possible to guarantee absolutely no pixel loss.
