How to check ipad 4 mini when buying?

Dear owners and experienced in apple technology, tell me how to check ipad 4 mini when buying? Chips and scratches obviously do not count, as well as possibly non-working internals - this is a warranty case and the device will be replaced (should), but how to check that there are no dead pixels and subpixels on the display? If I understand correctly, then the ipad can be in two states:
-inactive - it can be turned on, but it does not allow you to run applications, access the Internet, and so on.
-activated - fully functional.
Also, I did not find any mention of the built-in utility utilities for checking the screen (a sequence of solid color screens like here , for example).
It turns out I will need tohow to pay for the device, activate it, and only after that check the screen for dead pixels and if everything is ok, then buy it, because I don’t smile at all to find 4 broken pixels on a freshly bought ipad. and hear from sellers that this is allowed by law (by the way, they will be right), but I don’t want to buy a screen even with 1 broken pixel. I'm sure store employees will not appreciate this approach. Is there a way to check screen on ipad without such conflict? Is it possible to access the Internet without activating the device?

In short, there is no way to check the screen - you can swear as much as you like, but the store will not let you activate the ipad without paying money for it, and yes, not activated - it's just a piece of plastic. The way out of the situation with broken pixels in the supposedly very flexible policy of apple regarding the issue of determining the guarantee and the responsibility and adequacy of the retailer - I was assured that if I find at least one I will immediately replace the tablet. I can’t confirm or deny because everything is ok with the screen. In general, as a palliative solution, it remains only to ask the store before buying how they behave in such cases.
