I got a perfect unit. No backlight bleed, no dead pixel, no uneven tint issue, no scratches. Bought from Courts Damansara.

Come to think of it, maybe these problematic models are rejected models from oversea? People reject and exchange iPads everyday. I don't think Apple will scrap those units. For example what I've read in the other thread, someone exchange until Harvey Norman ran out of stock. What happened to those opened box and rejected unit? On top of my head maybe they refurbished, re-sealed and resell. It is not viable to scrap it. So all the so called defective units keep circulating in the market.

From the poll until this moment it seems like the defective one and non-defective one is 50:50 ><

I agree with your thing and that means the later we buy the worst is our purchase? Cause the early purchasers would have filtered out the good one according to your thoughts doh.gif

I guess it's a gamble everyone has to take. From buyers point of view, just get from retailers which is more lenient in exchange policy. That way if really badly 'defective' you still can change it. For me I wouldn't consider minor cosmetic scratches as defective. Maybe I'm less anal.

I'm not qualified to give examples as I personally didn't exchange any units. Maybe those who do can help. Good luck.

I've bought mine from Sen Heng (64gb + wifi + 4g) and has no problem.

Wi-Fi is okay (set up apple id from the ipad itself).

Visited some website to download colored images to test for bleeding and dead pixel - none.

So I'm pretty much satisfied. Maybe one day I will get Digi day plan - but that if there is a problem, a telco problem, not ipad.
