iPad 2 edge coming apart!!

[Tarkio]

Mine has a black bezel so I had to look under a bright lighting source. Mine is tight all the way around. I have zero light bleeding so maybe it's the same glue issue that some have had. Apple is already looking into that, maybe this is related.

It's clearly a construction issue that could not be remedied at a store, so plan on getting a new iPad 2 whenever you take it in. Be sure to back the old one up.

Just enjoy it for a while until the stores have more stock. You have a year, but don't wait too long. If you exchange sooner than later you have a better chance of getting a new one rather than a refurbished replacement.

I must be a complete idiot. I do not see a thing wrong with that picture.

Don't be so hard on yourself - it's late and you've had a hard day..

It's a *very* slight separation - yes, barely visible between the glass and the case surround - you mighten even notice it, but we iPad Forum members are perfectionists - and you can *just* see a very small black speck of dust or other debris that's caught in the gap between the screen and the surround.

I have a white iPad and there's a very tiny black line in the same spot. I never would have noticed it were it not for this thread. Using a magnifying glass and looking at it from all angles, I can see absolutely no separation on the edge.

Could be it's supposed to be there.

I see it --



It is still under warranty so if it really bugs you that much, get a replacement.

[SweetPoison]

Oh, Okay! How did the OP ever find that?

My first iPad 2 had this problem in one area. I went to the apple store and they traded it out right away.

A new thread needs to be started with found issues with ipad2 so far. Its starting to build up quite a list of defects/issues on first wave of devices.

Jailbroken...need I say more ;-)
