I just bought a new Samsung 43" 8 series 4K  UHD tv (Model: UN43TU8000FXZA) yesterday. When the tv is on, there are red dots along the center of the screen that are best  visible on dark scenes but never go away.

I went back to Best Buy that exact day to get it exchanged. They said it might've gotten damaged during shipping (since I had mine shipped to my house) so just exchanged it and will be picking up my replacement on Friday, so I'm hoping and praying that the new one isn't also damaged.
