Who has a perfect new iPad?

[JUiCEJamie]

If you're asking about "perfection" then no, I have a slight light leak under the bezel. It's only viewable at extreme angles though.

Me too. If I'm looking at the iPad at a pretty crazy angle. Then yeah, a really bright light is shining out of it.

For me, I don't really care, but would some people return it on that basis??

I'm a pretty satisfied customer here, then again I didn't put my iPad under a microscope and spend four hours looking for a defect. I'm completely happy with it

I am not experiencing any issues with my white 64 GB LTE iPad

 

[gquiring]

No issues with mine. I have not tested the Verizon service though. I really don't need the cell service right now so I don't want to toss $20 bucks out the door just to test it.

So far it's perfect. I did the pixel test posted yesterday. No yellow tint whatsoever. I'm pretty picky too.

 

[verwon]

I've found nothing wrong with mine....then again, I don't own a microscope!

 

[ZBoater]

Wow. These results are Impressive!

 

[glen e]

It was a chore to set up wireless access with Rogers, but other than that I have a nice iPad.

Mine seems to function perfectly, however, there's a couple rough spots along the edge of the aluminum casing. I know it's not a big deal, though it is easily noticeable. Not sure if I should bother taking it back or not.

My new iPad's screen is warmer than my iPad 1&2, but now I think iPad 1&2 was just cooler (color temp). I'm liking the warmer screen and NO, it's not a defect.

Yeah, like it doesn't charge, it heats up, is smokes, tingly feeling when you touch it, you know, stuff like that.

That "tingly feeling" is an electric shock. I get it when I lightly touch my iPad 2's aluminium case when it's charging. Is this not normal?

 

[mikejfrd]

Mines perfect. Love it!

 

[Drag'nGT]

It's warm when I'm using it but not when charging. Isn't it normal for it to be warm when in use? Like a computer?

Yes it's normal. The CPU stresses the battery, that's the heat you're feeling.

That's what I thought. It is warmer than my 1st gen when in use though. Nothing major.

mine is perfect the only issue i had was syncing photos to my ipad but i nailed it down to a iTunes issue.

The first Gen. was also thicker, allowing for heat dissipation.

This is my first iPad and so far it is totally perfect and lived up to all my expectations. Good job Apple.

I concur!

 

[t7own]

Been looking all day for something wrong I can't find anything yet so a perfect one here

 

[mac.cali]

I exchanged mine because of dead pixels and yellow screen. The replacement is perfect! I love this iPad, well until the new model is released.

Update: I just noticed a dead pixel. I'm running a dead pixel repair. Hopefully that takes care of it. If not I will exchange it in a few weeks. Not a deal breaker, just disappointed.

For all of us who got iPad 2s early in its product life, the launch of the iPad 3 and the lack of widespread quality control issues with it has been a pleasant surprise.

If you read the first page of posts you would think the newiPad is crap. This poll seems to suggest otherwise. I think Apple did a great job.

 

[StellarEvo]

Not to jinx myself, but mine seems pretty perfect. I don't appear to have any issues but I'm not inspecting each pixel with a magnifying glass.

Now excuse me while I go purchase AppleCare+!

Especially since people here tend to be more critical of the physical flaws than an average Joe.
