tried mine seems to be fine. (touch wood)

i'll probably send this to asus for warranty claim instead..exchange will take longer and god knows what kind of unit i might get..probably one that has other issues instead

it is norm. Read from here:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44051170

Ipad got red light bleeding when in the dark. If nothing serious/ other issue better stick with it first.
by the way, my friend tried to claim warranty but apple don't allow. Got certain policy like dead pixel (how many number) only can claim

So no one's unit other than mine has light bleed? guess i'm just unlucky then

read the link that i just sent. some people had it but not so major issue

yeah what i mean is those who bought it so far here in malaysia..will have to do more tests to uncover more problems before i send for warranty fix for this..my 1st gen n7 no such light bleed issue but my transformer 1st gen got (lived with it)

Even if you send to service centre, I don't think they have part fix for you

Ask them go dai seriously
New N7 is so much better

Err why not? Cos not officially released yet?

Not official in Malaysia. If not you can try call them and ask.

then just wait for another month for the official release like everyone is talking about

Yeah will do. Thx

Unit dont have. Where to get parts? normally not that fast the parts arrive as here not yet sell. Then old N7 display cannot fit.

my only problem with the tablet is that it rattles when playing high pitch audio...damn

My battery status after one day of use. Unplugged yesterday 12am, about 24 hours.
Played games, surf the Web, read news on it, relatively long sscreen on time.
