If there is no physical damage on it by the user either intentionally or non-intentionally, yes usually warranty covers hardware failure. Go to Apple-centre and check with them

no physical damage.. but i fear that later they give me *** saying it does not cover in warranty.. because the last time my problem is keyboard cap came off and i have to replace it for rm50

Apple Care Protection Plan (ACPP) can be further reviewed here http://www.apple.com/support/products/mac.html and i will strongly suggest you to do the following steps:

1. Call up their direct line to check if your condition is covered in warranty (usually yes)

2. Walk into their service centre and share your concerns - be firm and clear with what you want, usually Apple folks wont be so mean and turn u away like that.. afterall there's a reason why they charge such price for their product

do this test to confirm if its a dead pixel

yeap..do as bryan says..
my imac had dead pixel..called them up..
then now they replace the screen edi
hehe

How to know if it is a dead pixel?

I used to be work at Apple Service Provider. If your unit has white dead pixel with no physical or accidental damage, it's under Apple warranty. Just send to any Authorized Apple Service Provider.

And bring the whole box set to the apple service office. =.= That day I wasted my time there coz did not bring iphone box and everything which is probably being applied to all apple products... Zzz.

ok guys i did the test.. all the colour except black shows the same white dot.. what does it mean?

means that screen is spoiled...better take it to the service center

i've provided you with the link above, try it out

i did.. all got white dot except the black background

its a dead pixel for sure, you may almost certainly request for a replacement

Why does black background can't see and the rest can see the white dot

it could be lcd mura.

Serious? i got the same case dude.. mine is my F1 button came off within 1 week of purchase. Service ppl try to cone me for RM50...==

serious bro.. they charge me the same price too.. =.= they say it is not covered by warranty.. i am fear that the screen problem will give me the same feedback

if its LCD Mura, you're sure to get a free replacement.
it will be the case of warranty for sure.
just make sure you go to the right AASP

might to recommend which AASP is the best?
