They are liers LEL. I replaced my iPhone 5 already knew those are refurbished set, but then i still purposely asked the staff, 'Bro, is this iPhone brand new or refurbished?'

He replied, 'This is a brand new phone.'

Is your friend's replaced phone came with original iPhone box? Or just in an envelop?

Wait you mean your friend worked in apple store? So is refurbished or new? Or is it because your friend is an apple's staff thus can get new set instead?

I feel the need to raise up issues with iPad Air 2. Did any of you experience the same problem? I knew the vibration problem have been experienced by most of you guys who got it. How about the other issues?

- Screen Distort when there are slight pressure from the fingers holding the iPad from the back.

- Screen Sensitivity issue.

- when Typing You got a tingle through your fingers like static

- wifi a bit hit & miss kept dropping out

this is a major setback man.

Ipad air 1 screen is awesome when comes to picture and video. however i find it when reading text it may cause straining to the eye

then surely iPad 2 will also cause straining to the eye. hmm.gif

Did you put a casing on your ipad or use it nakedly?

Did you guys compared the Retina Display screen with the old iPad Air? IS the differences huge?

How about the screen colours, resolution and so on as compares to Galaxy Tab S? Today went to Samsung store to check out their Tab S series was surprised with the screen. Very beautiful.

Thinking just to leave it as it...ask for replacement also need to wait some time for pick up and re delivery...
Not sure Apple willing to replace or not for such small chips.

Last time I received my iPad dented abit, they arrange a replacement though.

Yours is not an engraved unit right? hmm.gif

Instead of listening to other people review about the display, I went to mall to see it for myself. The iPad Air 2 screen seem to be more vivid.

I use my iPhone to upload these photos, not sure is too big or too small.

Oh ya, both iPad have been set to brightest setting.

I have checked few units last weeks at The Switch and Harvey Noman in Penang. None of the Ipads have distortion problem but still have sound vibration.

The distort problem only happened at the right side. SO did you checked both side? hmm.gif

QUOTE(poi2005 @ Dec 8 2014, 06:13 PM)
Scheduled pick up return today by Apple, however, waited whole day, no courier came to pick up.
Called Apple, they have no idea why courier doesn't come, had to reschedule me again for the return pick up.

So far, the experience is getting unpleasant...no replacement until the return iPad reach their warehouse in SG.
Sigh...I think probably next Monday can only get the replacement if the next scheduled pick up does happen...

Thank you so much for the update. rclxms.gif notworthy.gif

Woah, sorry to hear that. So have to wait for a week again sweat.gif How come not tomorrow?

They said only can arrange the courier at least one day in advance, therefore tomorrow can't as is less than 24 hours for the courier to arrange.
Well, do hope the courier turn up on time.... sad.gif

Yup, not my first time.
Previously, they sent the replacement out the next day after I requested for an exchange and the courier came to pick up as scheduled. So in between the return progress, I am about 1 day without the iPad on hand.
Day 1 - Request replacement. Day 2 - Replacement unit sent out. Day 3 - Courier picked up return unit. Day 4 - Replacement unit delivered to me.

However this time, they insist that the iPad must be returned and received by them before a replacement unit can be delivered to me.
Sigh  sad.gif

Just received my iPad Air 2 yesterday and I was checking all the edges to see if I got the same issue or not. Fortunately do not have. But then later when I check again I saw a little bit of imperfection that looks like a scratch. So I used my finger to rub it hoping it was just a dirt but it just don't came out. So I was like oh syet.

Coincidentally it was my afternoon nap , so I just ignore it and went to take my nap. At night I tried to find it again but then I just can't seem to fine it lol. It just vanished. Weird .

So how's the progress? smile.gif
