Those videos demonstrates nothing. The rear case resonate, this is a fact. So?
How's that an issue?

Someone could be bothered by a round home button. Does that make it an issue?
Got a tip for us?

Watch them again. A few videos show items bouncing/moving on the front glass. I know since one of the videos is mine.
Also what you said doesn't make any sense. If the rear resonates (which it does), then the front glass does too since the glass is attached to the case.
When you place something in a speaker, what happens? The iPad Air 2 is I. Fact acting like a speaker. That's why it has such superb sound. It's not distorting the sound, ergo no problem.
if you put an object on a speaker, it will resonate. It's called physics .....
Those videos are pointless ....

that's my point since the beginning: it doesn't distorce sound, and it's actually better than previous generation, so why i should consider a resonating shell an issue ?
Not sure about your Air 2, but on mine the speaker isn't in the screen. The speakers are on the bottom.
Because you hold it in your hand. The sound of the Air 2 is great and if you put it on a table the resonance even amplifies the sound experience.
But i prefer to use my ears to hear and not my hands.
I assume when you listen to your hi-fi system at home you don't hug the loudspeaker for a richer experience, right?
If I'm looking for a richer experience, I'll use a pair of good earbuds, not the internal speaker.
Ummm. That's not the same thing at all. The shape of a button has ZERO impact on usability and you know it. The screen and chassis vibrating like a cheap sex toy DOES effect usability.
Geesh whiz.

It doesn't affect usability in any way, and your exaggeration about the sex toy is the demonstration on how ridiculous this whole issue is.....
I think no-one could deny it vibrates.
We are just arguing about how that can be defined as an issue....
That's correct. As I said, even a round home button could be an issue for someone. That's doesn't make it a design flaw.
Dumb analogy. A round button is a design choice. Apple can and does produce products with flaws not all major, but flaws nonetheless.
A thin aluminum chassis is a design choice in the same way. Not a flaw, it doesn't matter how many posts you are making on these threads.
The thinner aluminum chassis brings with it inherent problems like the screen distortion problem because the chassis is too thin allowing components to press against the LCD components.
After you pick up any of the old iPad, you realise just how light the Air 2 is. And it's great.
It is not helpful, and actually counter-productive to engage in a debate with people who don't respect the first-hand experiences of those who differ from their own. Because to do so ends up falling into the same trap. That lack of respect is an implication of either (A) you are lying, or (B) you're overly sensitive to the issue.
If someone claims to have flawless devices, I won't try to prove that they don't, but rather encourage them to enjoy them.
