So i was using my Z2's flashlight in the dark a few days ago and noticed that the light seems to go through the sides of the phone? It happens on every side of the phone. My phone is waterproof (submerged many times, indicator still white) but is this an issue or some sort of feature (lmao) ?
My specific phone also creaks near the sony logo.

Thats somewhat abnormal
Normal for glass to react like that but not normal that you can see the side of the glass like that
If it doesnt hurt the phone then just ignore it
I tried now and i saw the same on my device but then i realized that it's the tempered glass screen protector edges just reflecting the light .. it looks cool btw
Light is like that, it always wants to get out and spread. Water on the other hand always wants to get in and must be prevented from doing that...

The tempered glass makes that too in my case.
When I get a notification from viber in the dark,the purple light spreads all around and its cool :highfive:
The odd thing is that i don't have a tempered screen protector, just a generic cheap thin plastic one from ebay.
Either way, it seems that this is normal and happens cause of the glass build.

I've been keeping my Touch HD carefully covered while waiting delivery of a screen protector.
When I came to apply the screen protector, I was horrified to discover that the top touch layer of the display seems to be separating from the glossy black bezel underneath in places
Note that the very edge doesn't seem to be separating, it seems to be just "internal".
Although it doesn't seem to affect operation of the device, it looks rather unsightly and I'm especially peeved after looking after it so carefully.
Anyone else seen anything like this ?

Don't wait and take it back to the shop for exchange!!!
Isn't that your screen protector coming off???
check carefully around the camera: if you see an edge, i bet you already have the screen protector! once i applied mine incorrectly, i could see exactly the same effect...but it was the film...
OMG, I am so dumb
I had peeled off the printed "protector" that came on the display when I bought the device, but there is indeed ANOTHER ONE underneath
It must have been applied so perfectly at first that I could not even tell it was there !
Thanks so much guys.. PANIC OVER, I hope

No more panic for other users! Thread renamed and closed!
Anybody else do this, or am I crazy???

Maybe a little bit but hey, all in all a simple and clever idea!

If you have a phone with a raised camera, then I found the feet on the bottom of routers and cablemodems work pretty well! Comcast will never know it's missing.
I also do but not like you
I have managed to microcut the camera lens too, can't see the cuts without good lighting but I have.
Never done it on any of my devices. The lens is receded into the body anyway, so there's no real risk of marks or scratches.
Also, the Nilkin tempered glass screen protector comes with two little protectors for each of the camera lenses.
More for than just earwax
Daughter has an X+ and she did quite a number on the lens. So much, that all of her pictures taken came out ghostly...
I pulled out my handy drill, a cotton swab, some toothpaste mixed with a bit of water, and started polishing that sucker. Did that for about 4 minutes (being careful not to stay in one place too long) and it removed all of the micro scratches she had caused by putting her phone into her rear pocket
Anyone else have this issue? When in bright sunlight it looks as if the screen has a cloudy yellow/orange tint to it kind of like a botched polarization application, it is really hard to see in sunlight.
I do have a glass protector on it but i removed it and after a vigorous cleaning the orange was still there, is this a glue issue like the OPO had?

Well I guess i'm alone with this issue. Right, sending it back then.
I checked yesterday and don't have this issue. I forgot to report back for you.
before I send it back i wanted to take one last good picture in case anyone else has this issue, I just got my replacement and it is not like this so if yours is, send it BACK!
This has been cleaned very well with a alcohol pad and its smooth so it is under the glass.
I do not have this not even a little bit, your unit is messed up
Edit: didn't realize you have the replacement, tbats good!
Yeah that's really bad and nasty looking. You got your replacement quick as hell.
Major defect.

Yep. That needs RMA'ing

Looks like a faded picture of a volcanic eruption. That's purty Maw. :silly:
My nexus screen glass is about 1 millimeter above the main frame, it is normal? Glass does not shakes, does not go down when pressed ...
This 1 millimeter, is uniform throughout the Screen!
The glass on mine sits right below the frame, very small depth difference but I can feel that the glass is slightly below it.
I'll have another, I have no Lucky :crying:
Anyone else who can give feedback?

Same here for me.
Looks like you may need to RMA it.
Mine is sitting below the frame. Perhaps give google or huawei a call to determine if that is a manufacturer defect?
Glass may be brooked from inner side.
Have opened a case with Google, will now send photos also take advantage and put here
Mines ever so slightly raised, certainly not 1 mm though, I also have a tempered screen protector on which lifts it a bit higher too.
After all is good, I think optical illusion, has a black rim around the screen glass

I've had the phone for 24 hours now, and I've already noticed a lot of tiny scratches at the top of the display (by the camera/2nd screen). Several of these scratches go right across the camera, and they all seem to be going vertically up and down the glass right at the curve point. I truly haven't set this phone down screen side down, and the only thing I can think of is it getting scratched going in and out of my jeans. I keep it in my right front pocket all by itself. I'm super disappointed in the glass so far. Anyone else have this issue?
Edit: Photo's.

Mine did as well, I removed it first thing because it had 4 small bubbles in the middle of the display. I just figured it was for transport like every other phone comes with. I'll post photos in my original post.
