What things to look out for while receiving my tablet?

[JamesM90]

Just ordered one and I'm gonna get it tomorrow. P601(Couldn't find an LTE version), 32GB and black.
I wanna make sure that it's not from one of the faulty batches, body, software and hardware wise. 'cause once I bring It home from the shop, they won't take responsibility for any thing.
So, I'm gonna test it at the shop and I wanna make sure that It's in perfect conditions and doesn't have any factory defects.
It would be great if you guys could tell me how to check its body and test the software and hardware to be sure that it's in good conditions and It's not a used one(Not everyone lives in a perfect city!).
Thanks.

If that's true I would think very carefully about buying from them.

I had the back plastic bend with some pressure and felt me uneasy because i could just hit a component an kill it or something, Minor light bleeding ( though the replacement i bought has the same problem and is an issue with LCD I guess).

In my area, all the other retailers are the same.

Where are you from?


Side note i Know in America Most Credit cards allow you to do returns for 90 days even if the retailer doesn't allow it to be returned ( Amex, Discover, and certain visa and Mastercard)

Buy online then from a reputable retailer.

If the shop is as bad as you make out what it stopping them from just taking your money and telling you to *** off?

Shut the device down, start it up old in the volume - (minus) and press the power button. Screen comes up telling to press volume + (plus) to go into download mode. Do that, check for warranty bit, if says 1 just walk out. Warranty 1 means someone tripped the Knox counter and no warranty can be obtained from Samsung.

Couldn't get LTE? It's only from a carrier. I have mine from Verizon.
