I’m wondering if the white spot issue is always just a single spot, or if it’s just any random white spots? We have three Air 3s. Two of my grandsons have them, and I just got my old one back from my granddaughter to use after selling my pro.

There are 3 little white spots in an area toward the bottom of the pad - only see it on white screens. I’m wondering if that’s the same white spot issue, or possibly dead pixels. I’ve never seen anything like it on any iPad we’ve owned before. The other Airs are fine, and one is a good bit older (one is a few months newer).

I have AC+, so I guess it doesn’t really matter, but I was just wondering.

It can vary significantly. Sometimes it is one large spot near the home button. Sometimes it is multiple small spots in the middle of the screen.

My pro 10.5 has a very small white spot near the right side bezel. It’s never bothered me and has never spread or gotten any worse..just always been there but luckily not distracting for me.
