I need an opinion please - Eee Pad Transformer General

I bought a transformer a day or two ago at pc Richards. The problem is I have one tiny dead pixke but I fixed that but now I realise there's a dust at the top of "s" in Asus. Everything else is surprisingly perfect no light bleeding the software is super fast and responsive ,and the speakers work great and everything. Should i just say tough poo and keep it or risk It and return it for one that could be bad. What would you do?

Are you reffering to the Asus in the bezel? If so, keep it.

Keep it for a day or too more and see if the dust really bothers you. These things get finger prints smudges so bad I carry a cleaning cloth in my case. In a day you might find that the smudges obscure any dust.

It all depends on how anal you are, I wouldn't send money back just because it has district under the screen (unless there's a lot of it and its highly visible) . I have a few light bleeds on mine and it doesn't really bother me.

So how bad is the dust under screen issue? (Poll)

Im getting a new tablet soon and I think the 10.1 is my favorite of the moment. But getting dust under the screen is one of those things that would drive me nuts. So just curious how wide spread the issue really is.
You should search the forum for build issues, but I went through 3 tab10.1 and they all had dust under the screen.
I'm really sensitive to flaws and I can see it ONLY with the screen off and in really really bright rooms or in sun light. also, so far I haven't noticed any new dust that is getting in under the glass. So, I ended up with one that had just a few dust on the edge of the screen and I don't notice it under normal use.
No dust issues here or atleast haven't noticed under normal use. Absolutely loving my tab

Like joebob1, the dust under the screen is clearly visible only when using the tab outside, under the sun ligth, and with a black background or the display off/in standby.
I bet that when the dust is checked under these conditions more people will report this problem.
so seems those mocking transformer for its build hre have dust and oil blob issues. Seems every tab is far from perfect....

Thanks guys, this is exactly why I wanted to have the poll. You get a few noisy people with bad luck and suddenly the 10.1 is junk because of a dusty screen. The poll is showing pretty much what I expected, the majority of them are fine.
To be honest im starting to lean pretty heavily towards the flyer for other reasons, but when it comes time to pick something in a couple days its good to know the tab is an option.

I have the oil blob issue too. Do you have more information/link to this? Like to know if this is something that can't be avoided or something I definitely need to exchange for a new one. Thanks!

Seems it is a result of glass and LCD touching. Usually heat triggers it. Price of being so thin is the 2 pieces are too close together. Seems to be common prolem

New tab owner, wondering how build quality holds up?

Had the tab for just about two days and I have already noticed some slight creaking from two spots on the bezel where the screen meets the edges of the back plate. I actually love this device and coming from the xoom the light weight and slim design are priceless. The only thing is it appears it may come at the expense of some durability. I have handled this thing very carefully and haven't done anything reckless or abnormal with it in this short time so naturally I am a bit unnerved to already hear creaking noises slip out from the sides.
It definitely feels on the delicate side (which i guess is ok because I have no need to use it as shield, hammer, or battering ram) but if it can't endure normal or careful use, that is a concern.
Is this is a normal problem? I saw that some handed out at Google I/O had the screen warp up from the body, were these replaced under warranty or have others had their tab serviced by Samsung for a similar problem?
Thanks in advance to all the commenters.

I bought my Tab yesterday and I started using it and noticed the screen was lifting from the top on both corners so I exchanged it and this new one seems fine so far!!
Had mine 1 week. No issues. I dont treat it like a rental car or anything. I treat it like a $600 investment that I would not want to A) be without, B) pay to replace (although i have a SquareTrade 2yr warranty w/ accidential coverage.)
But not reallh looking for issues. It feels right and solid in my hands. I see some on this site pushing in on the screen and backside, and clicking around on things. I guess I dont go looking for ways to annoy myself with something I enjoy. Its like picking a fight with your signifigant other just to find a reason to breakup with them.
But to amswer your question: great solid build and most top gadget sights concur in their reviews.

Oh yeah, it must have been that frisbee game I played with it to break it in. Thanks for the good advice though, I was a bit hesitant to throw it around like that butin the end i decided what the hey.
And just so you have your facts straight, when the screens on galaxy tabs handed out by Google started peeling most top gadgets sites covered it.

I've had the Wifi model since launch. No squeaks or other problems. I dropped it on one occasion, it survived with a slight nick on the corner.
All in all, these seem pretty sturdy. It isn't a tank like the Xoom, but I prefer the thinness of the 10.1.
I have a small creak up in the corner where the power button is, if I push the screen and backing together they squek, debating on whether or not to exchange it for a new one.
I know folks here will tell me that I should use a screen protector and a cover of some type, but I've put my Tab 10.1 in my bag and taken it to uni for a week with no worries.
I haven't had any issues with build quality for the two weeks I've owned it... though you could still potentially get one that may be defective.
I don't know how I would return a tab with a creak in the corner, I'm sure that because its before the 14 day return period, it should be no questions asked.

You can return it in the 14 day period no questions asked, but that is different than having it replaced. I am curious my self as to whether they would give a hard time about replacing a squeaky screen.

Hey man, I went and exchanged it for a replacement. They took it back with pretty much no questions asked. I just showed them the squeak and told them I was worried about worse problems down the road and they handed me a new Tab

The nexus 4 has the worst build quality I've ever seen

I don't care what anyone says. The nexus 4 is a really cheaply made device. But what can you expect from a device with good specs at that pricepoint? Answer: a lot more than what I got, that's for sure. Anyways I have a huge list of defects on mine, so I hope I can cover all of them here
Screen banding: greys look quite poor and inconsistent, almost like the ribbon cable is damaged. Similar to this issue is that after turning the device off for a few minutes then turning it back on the sides of the screen, especially the right side, look way brighter than they should. Almost like backlight bleed, which I have as well
creaking: An issue mostly for the nexus 7 that somehow arrived on my nexus 4 as well. My nexus 4 for the longest time creaked like you wouldn't believe. You know when you pick up an old SNES controller and twist it a bit and it creaks? Yeah, like that, except it was every time I touched near the power button. I tried to fix it, but I only caused 2 other areas to creak and only partially fixed the first one
multi touch issues: Another issue thought to be exclusive to the nexus 7 but was transferred over to my 4. I first noticed it when I was fooling around with an ocarina app on my phone and I couldn't cover all the holes, so I downloaded a multitouch app and noticed a problem. When I have 4 fingers touching the screen, one of a few things happens. It either only registers 2 or 3 touches, or if I move my finger it will move the finger that I have parallel to it the opposite direction that I moved my finger. And if I have them all in a line it just goes f*cking nuts, sometimes having one finger, sometimes having 4 but not in a straight line, sometimes 2, etc. It was even worse than my nexus 7.
I could go on and on about how there's a dead pixel somewhere on the screen, or how there's sometimes a green spot in the middle of my camera, but let's stop there. You may be wondering why I haven't returned it yet. Well that's because the glass on the back completely shattered, like spiderwebs everywhere. But I didn't drop it, nor did I put the hot phone on a cold table, in fact, I just squeezed the side a bit. I took off the cover to fix the creaking issue, since I figured out how to fix it, and I wasn't pushing that hard, I've put far more stress on it just from taking it off, and I hear a loud "pop" and my hand is covered in glass, and there's really bad crackage on the back. I also put a tiny crack in it earlier from letting it slide off of my pants TWO INCHES OFF THE GROUND. *heavy breathing* I've never had such poor experiences with devices in my entire life. It's even worse than my experience with my nexus 7, which had similar issues, like the creaking, and the backlight bleeding, and the multitouch issues, and my nexus 7 had at least 40 stuck pixels on it that weren't fixed when I got a new screen. I don't think I'm ever going to buy a Nexus product ever again. I don't care if it's stock android, or if the performance is good, or if it's easy to root, or whatever. What's the most important part of a device? Being able to f*cking use it. And I can't use any of the devices I've owned because they've all been defective! My galaxy nexus had HUGE scratches on it just from it being in my bag, and stopped charging even after replacing the USB port, my first nexus 7's battery didn't work, my second nexus 7's screen had at least 40 stuck pixels, the oleophobic layer started to come off and it creaked a bit, and after getting it RMA'ed most of the pixels were still there and it creaked like a SOAB, and my nexus 4, I've already explained in depth. So now whenever I hear "oh, the nexus 4's build quality is comparable to the iPhone 5" or "the nexus 7 is soo much better built than samsung tablets" I just chuckle and say "yeah, I believe you"

Well that was a poorly-formatted paragraph, and after sifting through it for your complaints, I can tell you that half of those issues can be "fixed" with kernel adjustments. I put 'fixed' in quotation marks because they aren't really fixes, more like tweaks.
As for the rest of your complaints, it seems like you don't take very good care of your phone. My Nexus 4 is in mint condition and I don't use a case or screen protector. If it's not in my hand, it's in my pocket. I don't set it on tables or anywhere, really. Treat that phone like the high-end piece of electronics that it is instead of the way you treat your car keys.
Also: prepare for this thread to be closed.
Idk man it sounds a lot like ur just complaining .. I've had a lot of devices so little stuff doesn't get me anymore but you could've gotten unlucky too but honestly I've had my phone since November and I just haven't tried to hear it creak . .I'm sure it does but I could care less you might have OCD though if ur noticing all that small stuff you might wanna get that checked out.
And the other stuff sounds like u did it ur self cause that first crack is always the hardest after that ur screens pretty much shattered honestly

You're judging the build quality of a device sold globally based solely on one defective unit that you happened to receive? That's simply not logical. I for one have a device with no issues and I consistently throw my phone onto my bed (easy 2-3 feet down) and absolutely nothing has happened to it. I can get a creak but only if I press the back of the phone with amounts of force that would never come up in a normal usage scenario. You're hugely exaggerating here, and while I understand your frustration there's really no point complaining about bad luck.
You don't care what anyone says and nobody cares what you say. Let's call it even and move on.

Well I'm glad to know that other people are having better luck. And I already said I take superb care of it. I don't throw it around, or whatever. I treat it really well.

Yeah I apologize this thread really shouldn't exist. I just got a bit angry and didn't know where else to put my anger into. The nexus 4 is really a fantastic device, just not MY nexus 4. Besides I'm getting a new back which will fix the creaking issue and cracked back issue which are the two issues that bother me the most. The rest of the issues are fairly minor (except maybe multi touch, but who knows, that could be the back as well, maybe it's a software bug) and I can live with them. I've already calibrated the display so the banding and bleeding issues are a bit less pronounced.
I tested this multitouch thing:
I can place all my 10 fingers on the screen and it will recognize them. But put 4 on it and place them in a line: every "touch" will be gone ..now move one finger (while 4 are on the screen): 1 finger is recognized.
Yes, very strange.
I too have slight creaks on the screws and a bit on the power button. And a lot of small scratches on the back since it just lays on the glass :/
How often does someone need to use their screen like a retard unless u have no fingers
I really shouldn't be complaining too much because it could be much worse. And it only cost 350 dollars.
I don't care what op says. My n4 is the best phone I ever had. And mine build quality is iphone like. I had to rma my first one due to some problem. But rma process is too easy smooth and fast not like iphone.

Dirt under notification light.

There is dust/dirt directly on top of my notification light. The dirt is under the screen but on top of the light and it creates a visable spec of dirt in the center whenever the light illuminates. This is my second Verizon LG G2 as my first was defective and plagued with screen touch issues.
Am I being too OCD that I want to exchange the phone because of the dirt? I am still within my return policy.

is it quite noticeable from an average person's view of the phone? like place it on the table and sit back, if the light goes on can you see it? if not, its not worth the drive just for a little dust on the LED, and im sure you wont be staring at it the whole time. However since you made the statement that you ARE OCD, then whatever floats your boat, you could end up with another defective unit since this is your 2nd G2 and the first one is a defective one, so it is a gamble imo.

My friend, you'll be glad I posted. I too have OCD, I too noticed this. I will harzard a guess that every single LG G2 has this issue, it's just that you and I are hyper sensitive and we noticed and decided to spend the energy to post about it.
I would not return your phone unless you have another defect with the phone. The issue with the dust is the design of the phone, so it will re-occur if you're like me and put the phone in your jeans pocket often. The dust is getting under the lens from the top speaker grill area, you'd have to seal this area to make a difference and then you'd be losing sound for phone calls.
How did I cope with my OCD over this? I accepted by studying the design that this is a flaw that will affect all phones. After accepting this, I weighed the pros and cons of this phone against the REALITY that no single phone is without at least 1 issue. The LG G2 destroys all other phones in nearly every single category. This, to me, is enough to let the dust issue slide. Afterall, what is the purpose of the LED? To shine light. And the dust is not affecting this performance.
You will eventually forget about the dust when you truely accept that no phone is perfect. If every phone has a flaw, this is the best one to have, in my opinion.
So, getting another G2 will only delay acceptance, and you'll be pissed off when it happens again. I am going to try using compressed air to blow the dust out from under the LED cover, that may work, I'd try if I were you.
Cheers!
Its noticeable but not bad its not worth taking apart for that small speck of dust

i strongly recommend you to go for service center . coz of its loose fittings lately your light sensors will get effect and you will not b able to disconnect phones once you have dialed a call to someone or want to give a misscall to some one, due to dirt on the light sensor.. .

G3 Build quality thread

I've had my G3 for about a week now and I absolutely love the device. I'd like to have a discussion about build quality of the device since there's some things I've noticed with my 32gb D855 model that I'm wondering if others have had also.
1) The digitizer is quite noticeable, I guess my eyes have adjusted a bit now but it is there and quite noticeable when I pay attention
2) The back plate is screaming poor quality: it is very creaky near the top above the infrared and also around the volume down key you can really press the device and hear it creaking like a Samsung device
3) Unfortunately after caring for it with my life somehow the back cover got a huge scratch..I don't possibly know from what..a fleck of dust in the air or Something but still this shouldn't have gotten such an ugly huge scratch so easily!
4) Dust/sand or dirt is easily getting into the bezels right where the screen ends
5) As mentioned in another thread I've had the spontaneous shut down but let's not delve into that on this thread
Anyone else want to share their experiences?

Just got mine yesterday but #2 is not an issue for me. The back is very solid and doesn't have any flex at all. I am going to put a slim case on mine though and I already have a tempered glass screen shield.
Well, mine seems pretty solid so far (got mine on Monday), the only thing from your list i noticed as well is the dust at the bezel, but it's not really in the bezel, it's just sticking at the edges, because the bezel is slightly higher than the screen, that's a bit annoying, but not really bad, because it can be easily swiped away. Except of that, I'm pretty pleased with the build quality so far, looks and feels premium, just the back doesn't feel that slick, because of the plastic, but it's still not bad at all.
Oh, and the back buttons are slightly too hard to push, but that's also not a big deal.
So, great device, I'm a happy owner^^

Do we have the same device?
1: I can barely see the digitizer unless i shine a bright light into the screen.
2: the back cover on mine fits perfectly, to the millimeter. The only creaking i hear is if i try to twist the device at either end which is acceptable as its a removable cover so should have some give.
3: that is unfortunate
4: Is this not normal of all phones. They all have a small gap between the glass and phone body. its hard to avoid, but not very big on the G3.
5: ive not had this issue fortunately.
Ive found the build quality to be very good. everything fits very nicely. and its a big step up in quality from the nexus 5 which already had a decent build quality.
Had mine for 6 days, comparing this to say an s4 or s5 is like comparing a Citroen 2CV against a Ferrari, the difference is immense in terms of both looks,build quality and feel. Loving it ?
Just got mine an hour ago. I'm coming from an S4. This phone feels cheap in comparison. I'm not sure if I'll get used to not having the true black that one gets with an AMOLED screen. But hey, it's only been an hour.:beer:

It really is a big difference between AMOLED and IPS screens. There completely different technologies, keep in mind though the IPS screen is more closer to every other screen you look at every day so its not like you dont use them already.

Is not bashing if its true. If you like the device then good for you.
Anyways the phone I had came with scratches on the back. The back seems incredibly easy to scratch.

It really is a big difference between AMOLED and IPS screens. There completely different technologies, keep in mind though the IPS screen is more closer to every other screen you look at every day so its not like you dont use them already.

Just got mine an hour ago. I'm coming from an S4. This phone feels cheap in comparison. I'm not sure if I'll get used to not having the true black that one gets with an AMOLED screen. But hey, it's only been an hour.[emoji481]
