[iPad Mini] Cracking sound when pressing on Bezel

dec. · Jan 3, 2013, 10:17 PM

Two days ago I noticed that my iPad mini makes a "cracking" sound when I push on the bezel on the left side of the camera. It's a short click/crack as if something is pushed back into place. I know this can't be normal, would you recommend a return?

Not unless it becomes an issue. You've got 1 year to decide. However, if it bothers you, just return it or take it to Apple.

Thanks, I don't think it'd be an issue, I just don't like it making the cheap plastic cracking sounds that you can squeeze out of certain other tablets.

(which makes my ipad a.... no , you know what I mean :-) )

If you purchased the iPad within the last 14 days, I'd just go ahead and exchange it for a new one.
