Just picked up my 20th Nexus 7 this morning. Defective with screen rise.
And 21st, this time with NO defects. The serial number was a C70 in the beginning, all the previous ones were C60 something. Crossing my fingers and will update later on today.
Plenty of people have posted photos here and xda. Are some of the posts bs? I don't know. I am about to be on my third tomorrow. I'll check the screen lift outside the store, and take it back immediately. Right now, it's not that big a deal to be honest. It isn't causing any problems really. However, I don't want to have it for six months and the problems get worse, etc.If you people are doing multiple returns because you can manage to slide your fingernail into the seam on the left side of the case or because you're scrutinizing a screen tester app for any sign of backlight bleed, you need to take a Xanax... seriously.
I challenge you double digit n7 returners to document these problems with some photos and post them here as evidence. I'm betting the majority of these issues are people being just a little OCD.
I got my n7 from the google pre-order and reading this thread would make it seem that I've won the n7 lottery by receiving a 'worthy' unit on my first try! I've got a buddy at work who just ordered the 16gb and is worried now that he's going to somehow receive a piece of garbage from reading posts like these. I'm calling BS until I see some photos documenting the severity of these problems.
Objective analysis from Amazon? I don't think so. I'd give it 5 stars out of actual use that I've done with it, and 3.5 out of quality of the build at this point.More perfect than either of the tablets I had before this one.. ...never had to return any.
For those of you judging the quality of this tablet from this thread. ..don't. B its nature, this thread is designed to attract those with complaints. If you want an objective analysis, check out the user reviews on Amazon. Even though they've overpriced it, it gets 4 1/2 stars out of five.. ...better than any other Android tablet.
