Hey guys,
There is a vertical area on the left side of screen that is about 1cm tall that feels 'rough' to the touch.
It doesn't feel all that bad, but it's not as smooth as the rest of the screen. My feeling is that the oleophobic coating is wearing off in that area, but it has only been a month.
Anyone else has this problem?

have you guys notice small gap between the glass and the silver plastic rim around it,visible only on bright environment..
i've noticed this on the first day. My friend said he read something about this on other phones to. I'm guessing its because of it being glass. It is design to protect the screen so when you get a bump on side it will not break the gorilla glass. I think

Might be true, maybe its for design purposes, in mine its only noticeable on the top area, but when using the phone normally you will not notice it because of its black color..
It's generally used as a seal to keep dust from entering the phone.

Silver? Mine is smoked grey metal

Yeah i just noticed it on mine. Wonder if we should be worried about the screen popping out of the frame or something. The gap is more prominent on the right side of the screen when looking at it. Top and bottom has no gaps. Hmmm...
Mine looks like it has an equal amount of gab and some dust that settled in.
its made like that. like what someone said above, its to protect the edges of the glass from shattering.
The glass on mine is a bit off centre, cant see it unless looking right at it in light.

I had the same glitches. Down and on the left side of the screen. Got the screen replaced by Samsung. The frame and the screen is stuck together from the factory. Now it sits really tight.

So is it a factory defect then? Unit seems to be working flawlessly though and no screen glitches
I noticed a tiny little gap on the bottom most part of my screen and the frame. It's not very visible, but it seems to be collecting a little bit of dust.
I never noticed it before reading this thread.
I must noticed the bezel on my new GT 10.1 has a small bump on the top left edge of the bezel.
I thought it may be a scratch, but it looks lime a casting defect... Has anyone else seen odd bits on the plastic bezel?
I'm thinking if exchanging it, but won't bother if its pretty normal.
Thanks!

Feel free to take an image. But that corner and the opposite is where the to pieces joins on my tab.
Yep... mine has the same thing too. Mine is on every single corner. I doubt this is a defect, I never even noticed it until I seen your post and looked very closely.
When held in landscape mode, the 'bump' is on the left side, on the bezel surface that is flush with the bezel and directly above the speaker.
Ie I felt it as a bump becuase it was right next to the edge of the screen.
I will try and take picture..
Can anyone tell me what the Nexus 7 proper screen height is? By this, I mean is the screen supposed to be flush with the bezel or in-layed into the bezel?
I'm curious because my screen is flush with the bezel at all 4 corners, but as you go to the center of the bezel on the outside of the tablet it is in-layed ever so slightly, no more than about the width of a few hairs.
Is this a defect/ sign of screen rise?
Note: The screen never rises above the bezel at any point on the device, thus far.
To give you an idea of what I'm talking about http://i.imgur.com/c7PNLbV.jpg
That's normal.

Anybody else have this on White version? Only on the right hand side. It feels like the back cover has a small gap between it and the screens bevel. I don't think it's the back glass but it could be.
Anyway, there is a definite gap being closed when squeezed slightly. The noise is plastic rubbing on plastic.
It's freaking annoying as I'm right handed and I can feel it vibrate in my palm on top of hearing the "squeak"! My wife has a Black Nex4 and has no gaps, squeaks, nothing.

I have a black one and it does the same near the middle. This phone looks good but honestly the quality sucks the plastic creaks at the bottom near the USB as well but I've learned to live with it not a big deal for me since the rest of the phone is awesome lol

Hey basically I've got quite a large but thin scratch on my screen and I have no idea how it got there cause I haven't touched the screen with anything sharp only my finger and the s pen.. So I'm sure it's the s pen that made the mark, but does anyone know how to get scratches out of the screen or hide them? Cause it's really annoying to look at when on a black screen or when the screen is off in the light, also does anyone know a way to prevent the phone from getting finger print marks and smudges off the phone? When I go outside and use my finger on the screen it gets kind of sweaty sometimes and makes annoying marks on the screen is there anyway to prevent this?

perhaps some screen protector would solve your issues!

It's there for life unless you scratch and buff out the whole screen or replace the screen.

Sadly, I think the scratch is a permanent thing
I had a similar occurrence years ago with a bit for debris - probably sand - getting on a stylus and scratching a phone screen.
I wonder if a screen protector, particularly one of the glass ones, would help?
This is exactly why i think gorilla glass is over-rated. I had a light scuff on my screen by day 3 of owning this phone and the only places i leave it are in an empty pocket or on my desk. I bought a tempered glass protector and it covered it pretty well but still pretty bothered about it.
I dont think the rubber tip of the s spen could scratch a gorilla glass lol. The only thing you can do is put a screen protector on it. Over time you will just forget about the scratch underneath. I had this happen before. Never again will I go unprotected on a $700 investment.

Cheers for the replies lads anyone got any idea for a great cheap screen protector that will cover the screen and not lose clarity?
