Not really one for moaning about my kit, absolutely love it when it work's, one of the reasons I buy Apple. Just starting to feel a little let down..
My iMac (Mid 2010) has yet again started exhibiting issues resulting in me having to take it in for a Genius appointment, this is going to be my 4th visit with this machine alone. I've had 2 failed HD's, problems with the ports, damage caused by a repair and now either GPU or display issues. Started getting the oh so common dark grey smudges appearing on the display, in the top left and bottom right of the screen. I've got AppleCare luckily, which happens to expire next month so suppose it's gone wrong at the right time in that respect.
My MacBook Air (Mid 2011) has only had to visit the Apple Store once with a display problem and also the trackpad was leaning quite heavily to one side of the machine, got it fixed no problems, but now some of the screws on the bottom haven't been put in properly (more like just jammed in without any care) and are now crooked and the whole assembly creaks quite a lot. iPhone 5, about a month in the lock button decided to give in, got it replaced no problem. Replacement phone home button died within a week, third phone is ok *touch wood*. At the height of my troubles my MBA, iMac were both in for repair and I was getting my iPhone replaced at the same store! Couldn't do any work at all, quite frustrating.
Can't help but think that either standards have gone down or i've just been a bit unlucky
Got a genius appointment next week for the iMac, not wanting to rant, just wondered if anyone else has had similar experiences?
