Hey Guys!

Thank you all so much for your help! I think that most of you are right and so I have decided to take it to Apple. I will be making an appointment shortly and going in as soon as my new bag comes so that my mbp can be transported safely. :D

Again thank you!

I will post the outcome of this whole mess ... hopefully it'll be sorted out in my favor :p

Hope everything works out for you!

Hope everything works out for you!

Thanks! But unfortunately it did not. :(

Hi again guys. So regarding my issues - I called Apple support and they told me to take it to the store. I did and basically they're not going to do anything about it because ...

1. All speakers will have some distortion so mine are perfectly normal. I brought up the point that it's only on one side but he still insisted that it was normal.

2. The display is an known issue but there's nothing he can do about it except for swapping out the display if I really wanted but that would cost me a small fortune.

3. The issue with the gap being uneven towards the left side - he tried adjusting the hinges but i can still see the uneven gap :mad: Since the display and the gap is towards the left side, he thinks I probably banged it on that side or something (which I didn't!)

Basically I just had a horrible experience with that particular genius. He said that even if I got a new mac, I still may not get a perfectly centered display and that my specific issues were small enough to not matter. I'm just afraid that it might get worse over time. Does anyone know if it might?

I will probably try another Apple store near me and see if I get the same response. Hopefully not. It does seem minor but can get worse over time. :eek:

Thanks again guys!
