About the Online Monitor Test

This free browser-based monitor test lets you inspect any LCD, OLED, laptop screen or TV panel in minutes. Run full-screen test patterns to find dead pixels, backlight bleed, color banding, gamma errors and motion blur — no installation, no uploads, everything renders locally on your device.

How do I check my screen for dead pixels?

Start the Dead Pixels test and cycle through the full-screen solid colors (black, white, red, green and blue). Clean the screen first, then inspect it from close range. A dead pixel stays black on every color, while a stuck pixel glows in a single color on a black background.

What is the difference between a dead pixel and a stuck pixel?

A dead pixel receives no power, so it stays black no matter what color the screen shows. A stuck pixel has one or more sub-pixels permanently lit, so it appears as a tiny red, green or blue dot on dark backgrounds. Stuck pixels sometimes recover on their own; dead pixels are usually permanent and may qualify for a warranty claim.

How do I test for backlight bleed and uniformity?

Use the Uniformity test with a solid black or dark gray pattern in a dim room. Clouding, bright patches or glowing edges indicate backlight bleed. A small amount of corner glow is normal on IPS panels; large bright areas on a new monitor are a valid reason for a return.

What does the gamma test show?

The gamma pattern reveals whether your monitor's tone curve matches the standard 2.2 target. If the calibration bands do not blend at the marked value, adjust the gamma setting in the monitor's OSD menu or in your graphics driver until they do.

Do I need to install anything to test my monitor?

No. The test runs entirely in your browser and keeps working even offline once loaded. Nothing is uploaded — the test processes data locally.

Recommended order: Dead Pixels → Color Bars → Uniformity → Geometry → Gradients → Contrast → Sharpness → Motion Response → Gamma → Color Distance → TV Pattern.

Keyboard navigation: ←/→ or PgUp/PgDn switch tests. ↑/↓ (hold to repeat) or the mouse wheel adjust the active test parameter. Esc returns to the dashboard (in fullscreen the browser uses the first Esc to leave fullscreen). F toggles fullscreen. H shows/hides the side-controls panel. Space toggles auto-cycle.

Clean screen: after 3 s without mouse or keyboard input the toolbar, arrows, side panel and mouse cursor hide so nothing covers the pattern. Move the mouse or press a key to bring them back. While a test is open the page asks the browser to keep the screen awake.

Physical pixels: 1-pixel patterns (gamma stripes, sharpness checkerboard, grid, frequency zones) are drawn in device pixels, so they stay exact with Windows display scaling (125/150/175 %) and browser zoom. The current device-pixel ratio (DPR) is shown in the info bar.

Auto-cycle (Space or the ⟲ button) advances every 5 s; changing any parameter (slider, button, ↑/↓, wheel) or switching tests with the arrows stops it.

Best practice: use fullscreen, clean the screen, disable night-light/blue-light filters, and inspect from normal viewing distance and close range.

Privacy: everything runs locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded, and the page's Content-Security-Policy blocks all network connections. All rendering is done by the browser canvas/CSS. localStorage keys under the montest: prefix: state:<test-id> (saved parameters of Dead Pixels, Uniformity, Grid, Gradients, Sharpness, Motion Response, Gamma and Color Distance), controlsVisible and lastTestIndex. The light/dark theme is shared by all BeogradPC tests under bpc:theme. Export saves a JSON file to your device only; it contains your browser user agent, platform and language, screen size, colour depth and pixel ratio, viewport size, the test parameters and the measured motion frame rate.
