    mantra, there is a chance that dead or hot pixels will worsen with time, especially those pixels that are next to the dead pixel, but no one can tell you for sure.

    Again, if the monitor is "brand new" (General Warranty Overview), contacting Asus is the proper course of action to take.

    I'd take it back to the store/shop you originally purchased it from. In the UK, if you took something back home & discovered it was faulty in some way, as soon as you produce the receipt the shop that sold it to you are legally bound to refund your money. You can also legally refuse a credit note & demand a refund.

    Re: with turned off monitor

    mantra, without electrical power, there is no light. You should not see anything with the monitor off, unless it is a speck of dirt?
