Just rejected my seventh, purchased (as well as an eighth that I opened and rejected in front of store staff) Nexus 7 in the UK
I simply can't believe that I am unable to purchase a Nexus 7 that doesn't have really horrendous issues, with what must be the glass not being properly glued to the device.
So called "customer champions" in my local store look at me as if I am overreacting to the issue where any pressure put on the left or right screen edges (anywhere at all along the height of the left hand side and from the middle to the topof the right hand side) results in the display beneath rippling like a solar powered calculator.
Apparently, says the "customer champion" "my Ipad does that, but worse" in which case I think either the guy is a liar or a muppet, or both.
I don't recall Google or Asus saying that the screen issues were a "feature" of the Nexus 7, but I simply can't fathom how, now that they have moved to the 32gb variant, that the units at retail are every bit as bad as the first batches that hit the market.
Anyone else had the same level of (lack of) luck with these models ?
I see the Nexus 10 is being built by Samsung, without reading up on it, does that answer the question about Googles view on the reliability/build quality of the units assembled by Asus ?
Thanks.
