I didn't return mine because I traded in my 5th gen to reduce the cost. I guess I could have and bought another 5th Gen but really, its a great device outside of scrolling quickly in the vertical orientation. Once you get where you want, its easy to look at and its great for video and other things.
Of course he is being honest. Just because a minor issue is there does not mean you have to notice it. Anyone being honest knows this is an “issue” with LCDs, but it is fairly minor and you dont see it unless you specifically look for it. If you focus on reading and understanding the content, you are likely not to be concerned by what has been documented to be a minor issue
If you google a little there are many excellent articles, even ifixit mentions “common”. So no, no real expertise needed, just reading. Also, not defending apple because it is a common problem, not an apple problemIt's always nice to see how everyone is suddenly, an expert on LED displays/controllers and lawyers at the same time.
Always eager to defend Apple? Am I the only sucker that pays for the products full price and I don't get the "defend large corporation on the internet discount"? :/
I don't have an opinion on the matter since I don't know enough but it's entertaining reading the comments
There are pros and cons to both approaches. (In England, loser always pays for everything) But I agree, we should tilt more towards punishing stupid.
It's not going to go away unless there's laws limiting what greedy lawyers can get out of the settlement. Which will never happen as lawyers themselves run the government.
I think I will stay with the Mini 5 over this defect.
Colorado resident Christopher Bryan on Wednesday filed a class action lawsuit against Apple that accuses the company of fraudulently marketing and selling the sixth-generation iPad mini despite being aware of a so-called "jelly scrolling" defect with the device, according to court documents reviewed by MacRumors.
A few days after the sixth-generation iPad mini was released in September, some users started to notice that text was appearing slightly uneven while scrolling in portrait orientation on the device. Specifically, text on the left side of the screen appears to ever so slightly lag behind text on the right side of the screen while scrolling.
The complaint, filed in Northern California district court, alleges that Apple is aware of the defect, yet continues to sell the iPad mini without fixing the defect or amending its marketing materials to reflect the existence of the defect.
In late September, an Apple spokesperson said the effect is "normal behavior for LCD screens," according to Ars Technica's Andrew Cunningham. iFixit also said the effect is common for displays, but the repair company speculated that it may be more prominent on the new iPad mini due to the display's controller board being mounted vertically inside the device, rather than horizontally like in the fourth-generation iPad Air.
The lawsuit seeks damages in an amount to be proven at trial for any person in the United States who purchased a new sixth-generation iPad mini. The proposed class still has to be certified before the class action lawsuit can proceed.
