I call mine a "hot pixel". Although it's not exactly the same as the hot pixels in photography, they very much look like those bright spots in digital pictures.

Luckily it is very small, almost invisible, and in the upper right corner where I hardly see it.

I also have some "light smudges" in the higher brightness settings (above 50%). But those are only really visible in strange angles and especially on the Solitaire selection screen (which is really not important).

Since I don't see them in normal use (not even when reading manga) they don't bother me enough to exchange my device.
