Ok, so I have gone through 5 T-Bolts now, all with dust under the screen, screen leakage or dead pixels (I refuse to settle for anything brand new with issues like that).. FINALLY got a good one with none of those issues, however I noticed the top of it has a minor gap between the top and the screen.. You can see some of the inside parts.. Is this normal? Like it doesnt seem fully sealed, looks like dust can get through it. I dont recall noticing it on the first ones.. I know I might sound a little crazy/anal here but come on wtf?
 
Wow. Sounds like you've gotten some funky Thunderbolts. I get a little bit of light leakage at the bottom of my screen, but you have to view it at a wacky angle to see, so it's not really an issue (for me at least).

Ya, I checked with a friend who has a T-Bolt, no such issue with his.. I already noticed dust starting to get in through the top omg lol. Screw it. I am going back to the iphone I guess. I like the T-Bolt alot but all of these issues are just getting way too old. I have come to the conclusion that it's just not meant to be :-(

Mine also has this, no light leak or any other problems. I recall seeing a thread on another forum and lots of people had it also. When engadget reviewed it they also said they noticed this, but the screen was sealed in a way that it was purely cosmetic. I havent had any problems with dust getting under my screen or anything so if you have one that is good except for that I think you are just fine.
 
Unfortunately, this does happen to some phones. I've had the same issue with my evo.You don't have to replace the entire phone, but do take it back to have them replace the screen.(It's defective)
