Hi I recently purchased a Samsung Syncmaster 2243LNX - 54cm widescreen monitor. Lately I have been seeing that the right side of the monitor is a bit more brighter than the left part. Can anyone tell me so as to what might be problem here? also I have noticed one dead pixel on the monitor, so is the dead pixel covered under the warranty?
Yes it is. You also seem to have excessive backlight bleeding. If you run a black background on the screen and turn off your room lights and leave it pitch black, you will see certain areas having different shades- including white and grey. In cheap displays, backlight bleeding is inevitable, but dead pixel shouldnt be there. Some companies replace only if you have more than 4 dead pixels, but as per my observation based on people's comments on replacement, dell replaces even with 1 dead pixel. Get it replaced by the same dealer for less hassle. Make sure you audition the screen before buying.
