^^^ You clearly have issues that are far more serious than your quest to find a perfectly flat N7. Who said this "horizon test" is a valid method of determining if the screen is separating from the frame? Maybe the bezel or the frame is uneven and not exactly 100% true. Who is to say it will get worse? Have fun obsessing over a bezel.....

Anyway....

If I were ASUS I would just start painting the bezels black so people couldnt use this horizon test to determine if they have a defective unit. The only way you would be able to tell if your unit had screen lift is if the screen was "clearly" raised above the bezel and the side of the screen was actually visible to the naked eye. That to me is "screen lift".

im sending my N7 back to asus because the left speaker has blown.

i had a C7 model
[Nexus 7 General] steddora:
Has there been any reports of someone finding a c90 yet? I've decided to wait until the next batch. If they aren't any better then, I can wait for an infinity or something comparable to drop in price. The n7 should stop prices of a lot of tablets seeing as the specs to price point is so large.

That reminds me, simple question here. Why would Asus be so worried about quality of this device if it threatens their flagship transformer line of tablets? Think about it, i haven't read many bad reviews of any tablets from the transformer line. Yet the nexus is dawned with problems. Both are made by Asus? Kind of a coincidence isn't it? Why threaten their high end with this low cost model with nice specs?

[Nexus 7 General] SPreston2001:
Probably not yet considering its only the second day of Sept and a C90 unit would have been manufactured this month. Give it a few weeks and they will start popping up.
[Nexus 7 General] NeoMagus:
BS, my first C6 that had a bad battery was perfectly flush compared to the last four I exchanged, no lift or play whatsoever. There are good units out there, if you can find a monkey that made one
[Nexus 7 General] SPreston2001:
Im not saying they dont exist im saying I dont think its required for them to be completely straight like some people are hoping for. Go and buy a pair of $200 Jordans, some will have a piece of thread sticking out, others wont, some stitching may be closer to the edge than others etc. My point is some units will still fall within tolerance yet not be perfectly straight.
[Nexus 7 General] NeoMagus:
While I agree a little, there shouldn't be any play at all in the screen. As I said the first one I had was perfect so I know what I'm looking for. The last four I had all were lifting and could be pushed below the bezel, the C6 had no play in it whatsoever. I'm not going to keep something that Google classifies as DOA if its lifting I think you get that. I also don't mind turning screws but right out of the box I shouldnt have to rip foam, glue etc. to fix my tablet

In the end it all comes down to if you are happy with it, and personally I'm not happy getting a tablet where the glass is coming off the frame out of the box
[Nexus 7 General] pxlitup:
If you were tolerating it and expected others to do the same, that would make sense.

I still think it's in bad taste for you to tell others to stop whining when your device is ostensibly perfect.
[Nexus 7 General] nm8:
I have 2 now, bought thsi week, and they have no problem. Actually the first one I bought was from pcworld, and it had a stuck pixel which pcworld told me that it was not covered by the warranty, but it was only 3 days old so I got a refund as they ran out of stock.

What needs fixing?
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
Can you use the app called screen bleed test, and check for any light bleeding through on the black screen on 100 percent brightness?

Also, can you try the test listed in the multitouch problems thread? Basically you should have the Nexus sitting on a table in front of you, not plugged in and no headphones plugged in. You then need one of the multitouch test apps, and try crossing axis's with your two fingers, and see if it goes berserk. It's hard to explain, there is a video in the thread I mentioned that shows a video.

At first I didn't care much about the issue, since I'm always holding the tablet when I use it (obviously), but then I heard that some cases may cause this issue since you aren't touching the actual tablet when holding it, you are touching the case, I'm starting to wonder.
[Nexus 7 General] FrozenFlamez:
I picked up a Nexus 7 (C8) last Saturday from Office Depot. From the first day I noticed some very minor screen lift, but I didn't think it was enough to go and return it. I just read your post and tried out the screen bleed test and found that I actually have a couple of dead pixels that I would have never noticed (so thank you for that) and also does bleed a little when the screen is black. So I will probably be heading over there this weekend to get it exchanged for a new one. Hopefully I won't run into any problems with the next one..
[Nexus 7 General] Hemidroids:
Millions sold and a hundred whiners affecting profit? Not a snowball chance in hell.

The EXTREME vast majority (millions) have no idea about these tiny nit picking issues.

They just plug along happily using their tablet as it was intended and are VERY content.

Remember all the whiners saying google has a magical relationship with fedex?

They 3 day ship the Nexus 7 for 1 cent and charged you $15. They got rich off the shipping alone.:laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] MRsf27:
Im gonna have to try this, thanks man

C9 build here

Hi All, just participating in the discussion. I got my N7 8g yesterday and :

1. Screen fits perfectly with the body

2. No lifts

3. Speakers are good no cracking

4. Colors: now this is a mixed one, I also have a Galaxy Nexus and definitely the screen of the latter is more yellowish that the N7, I realize it now that I can compare. Nevertheless, the N7 has good whites but remains somestimes yellowish, its kind of hard to say, I think I might need some more time .... or just not care anymore (which is what I chose to do :))

Over all, I think that screen colors are still good when viewing images, the yellowish feeling was with the default wallpaper when you run it for the first time which already has a yellow tone to it and when in the app screen the gmail icon and this other one looked kind of yellowy.

No dead pixels at least none that I can see will give it another shot but I always say if you look really hard you might end up believing its there ;) so just relax and enjoy the toy

5. The bad: light bleed or yellow/greenish kind of patch zones when screen is at 100% brightness on black background. This is two corners and invisible in normal usage but still it sucks.

Side note, do you guys also see clear grayish banding when say you are in the settings screen or at the start? I don't think this is an issue but just color gradient.

Im going to keep this one and get the screen eventually fixed because of the bleed 6 months down the line when they will have sorted out the screen issues as apparently they're still there.

Cheers.

MY galaxy s3 has got many scratches(blue). i use a back cover but still there are a lot of scratches... Samsung made s3 eco-friendly and because of this the back panel quality is very cheap and sensitive .. its so annoying...
[Galaxy S III General] -josh-:
And as such cheap to replace :)

if u r going to use a back cover that is going to scratch your phone, how is Samsung responsible for it? I have 0 scratches
[Galaxy S III General] melon130:
Mine has a fair few scratches too, but I'm usually busy looking at the big bright screen to care about it
[Galaxy S III General] mbushnaq00:
I agree, mine has hair line scratches in addition to crack next to the speaker hole. I have ordered an original one from ebay in addition to a aluminium cover.
[Galaxy S III General] Arsaw:
No scratches here. Still looks beautiful and shiny :)
[Galaxy S III General] disclaimernotice:
I like the fact that it uses cheap plastic. Because then, I'm not paying extra for a phone just because of something pointless like a glass back or unibody design. Phones aren't a fashion statement, and so function trumps form.
[Galaxy S III General] Skander1998:
ever heard of ebay? get a backcover for 10$ shipped, aluminium.
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
I think the S3 costs more to build than an iphone. Iphones are built in China using slave labour.

Anyway, an iphone back glass costs around $5 on eBay. The S3 back costs around $15 but it's the original one. Pretty good I say.

I'd rather an original one. Tried the aluminum one and reception and data speeds dropped pretty bad.
[Galaxy S III General] tian105:
iPhones are indeed made in China but not by slave labors. The Workers who make iphones are decently paid for where they are living. Plus their food and shelter are all paid for. Oh, and no tax either. So in reality, the so called slaves probably got more left in their pocket than you. So dont spread flase information unless you have creditable source to back it up.

[Galaxy S III General] punitvthakkar:
I hope you do realise that the aluminium back cover will reduce the amount of signal your phone gets.
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
You obviously took my comment literally. I'm

to blame for that.

I was replying to a comment about Iphones costing more to make than the S3, which I'm pretty sure they are not. Many S3's are made in South Korea where labour costs are much higher than those in China. Apple, like most big companies chooses China because it's the cheapest and then they charge a mint for the phones.

Btw, there have also been alot of news reports about working conditions at Apples manufacturing plants (like Foxcon) over the last few years. Most has been negative (suicide rates, hard working conditions, hours). Maybe that has been false information as you say.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2012/may/30/foxconn-abuses-despite-apple-reforms

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Apple_Inc.

You asked for sources. Now I ask where is yours detailing the excellent conditions you talk about.

Anyway, maybe they are left with more in their pockets than you, but definitely not me.

And stop trolling, at least most of my post was related to the topic.

There's a very good chance I know more than you, but just worded my comment incorrectly.

But thanks for feeling sorry for me...troll.
[Galaxy S III General] Skander1998:
The aluminium back won't reduce signal.. in the slightest.. All radio's these days function in 360 degrees, the back will cover a limited portion of the back only (the edges are still plastic to stick), i use them and the signal is COMPLETELY unaffected in the slightest.

You can tell me anything, but i have the cover and see no change myself.

Only thing that will actually break is NFC.
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
I remember my brother bought one and was wondering why his reception had dropped over the last few days. Suggested it was probably the metal back cover. Anyway, we tested for about an hour....taking it off then back on again. Everytime we put it on reception dropped instantly. We tested until we were 100% sure it was the cover.

But there must obviously be different ones out there as you say you haven't had any problems, which I don't doubt.
[Galaxy S III General] metalk9:
Same here. I bought a case for protection but dirt got in between the case and the back cover and caused scratches. Oh, the bitter irony of it. :(

days after I got my S3, this lady cuts in front of me at airport and basically, knocks phone out of my hand onto the metal bench causing a nice scratch before i had even bought a case!!

that link looks good sxi200, cheap way to make it look perfect again.
[Galaxy S III General] ZaJules:
My Business partner just got a new S3 and the back panel is different to my one,

its thicker and more sturdy but also a little yellow in colour, not as ice white as mine.

You wouldn't really notice it until you hold the two side by side.

Maybe Sammy has had some complaints
[Galaxy S III General] tft:
thinking of buying one of these as a replacement for back cover.. anyone try them? curious about the fitment.

i always question ebay sellers that put their feedback history as private (can't see what people are buying when leaving feedback).. what do they have to hide.
[Galaxy S III General] lccpor123:
Get a Silicon case or a flip case, recommending the Spigen Neo Hybrid! It works protecting the phone from scratches (especially the back cover).If not, get a nice 3rd party back cover and replace it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
If you didn't root or anything, check if you got Gallery app or Camera app disabled. If not, it might be corrupted application, in which, to fix it, you gotta root and replace the apk itself. If you don't wanna go through all of that, just call Samsung or Google and ask for replacement.

[HTC Rezound] derek4484:
I've found that the data usage app is absolutely worthless. Every month I compare what Android says my data usage is compared to what verizon says it is and they are no where near the same. Verizon says my usage is 850-1,000 MB while Android usage app shows only around 300-350 MB. So, I just ignore what the data usage app says.

I have noticed that too.

Its odd to see so many people saying the bandwidth meter is inaccurate.. Mine has always been pretty much right on the money every month!

I do notice that there are some apps that don't get reported individually - for instance, WiFi Tether is never listed as an app that has consumed bandwidth in the list below the graph. But the total amount of bandwidth consumed always seems to be right. In other words, even though WiFi Tether is not listed with exactly how much bandwidth it used, that bandwidth is still being reported by the graph, and the cumulative total always seems to be in line with what Verizon reports I have used..
[HTC Rezound] zZDave_Stud:
Guys the problem isn't that the statistics aren't accurate with what VZW says, its that its August 20th and the usage cycle has not updated since august 11th!
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
OH!!! Ok my bad..

I have no clue. Everytime I have weird **** like that start to happen, it usually means its time for a full wipe and start over.

I've started to notice that Android is a little like Windows used to be.... After awhile it just starts to bog down and weird **** starts to happen that doesn't make sense. Only solution I've found in these cases is to do a full wipe and start over.
