I could use some quick advice -

My first iPad 3 was returned on Sunday due to a yellow smudge and noticeably darker display. (iPad 2s were brighter). I swapped colors and made a purchase from the local Apple store.

Replacement, to me, is perfect in terms of screen brightness and resolution. I prefer it to my buddy's iPad 3, which seems warmer. It's slightly warmer than a display unit but doesn't bother me a bit. Last night I did find that in watching dark movies in a dark room, there's moderate screen bleeding in the upper left corner. It's noticeable if I look for it.

Genius Bar appointment set up for 2 hea from now. I paid a lot of money and want a solid product but recognize I also want an iPad in this first batch and that many displays are having issues. I assume they will not let me keep opening boxes until I find one that has the same great cool screen, and want the option to keep my old one if that is the case.

Suggestions? What should I expect?

 

Thanks - if they guaranteed that I would eventually get one I am happy with I didn't want to settle with the leaking but if I would risk losing this one for a roll of the dice I would learn to live with it.

Exactly. I will let them know it is perfect other than the bleeding and if they consider that acceptable and ask for their input.
