But the tiny speckles, the ones I usually can't see well on my H2O unless I take off my glasses (I'm myopic) and put my eyes up close, they do not move with refreshes. At least with the 7 or 8 refreshes I did to check it out.

The image with the blank screen I'm harding it find to say anything about, because with nothing else on the screen there's no scale. Whether to return it or not, only the OP can say I reckon - they're the one whose reading is or isn't being disrupted.
Meera, thanks for the clarification/explanation.

Looking at my Glo HD (with a jeweler's loop), I do see some small speckles that do not ever move; I cannot see them with my naked eye (although I do wear glasses).

Looking at pic1 from Crusader, my speckles do not appear to be as pronounced; I can easily see the highlighted speckles in the picture with my naked eye.
