Hi @wrestlerhussy,

 

Thank you for the response.

 

I understand your laptop screen is showing white spots under the camera only on a black background. Let’s go through a few steps to investigate this.

    a. Clean the Screen
        • Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to gently clean the screen around the camera.
        • Avoid using harsh chemicals; a small amount of water or screen cleaner is enough.

    b. Check for Pressure Marks
        • White spots can appear if the screen was pressed or bumped.
        • Avoid applying pressure on the affected area.

    c. Inspect in Different Conditions
        • Open a completely black image or dark background and check if the spots persist.
        • Switch to a bright background and check if they disappear.

    d. Run a Pixel/Screen Test
        • Some laptops have built-in diagnostics for display.
        • Boot into the diagnostics mode or use software tools to check for stuck or dead pixels.

    e. Check for Backlight or Display Issues
        • White spots under the camera can sometimes be caused by backlight unevenness or pressure on the LCD layers.
        • If the spots are consistent and don’t change with screen content, it’s likely a hardware issue.

    f. Avoid DIY Repairs
        • Do not attempt to open the display yourself; this can make the issue worse.

    g. Monitor for Changes
        • If the spots grow, spread, or start appearing in other areas, it indicates progressive screen damage.

I hope this helps.
