Gap on right between glass & bezel

I’ll post some pics later, but wondering if anyone else has a gap between the glass and bezel on the right side of the phone? The left side seems pretty flush with the glass.
[update]
crapy pic, but here it is...
Take it back

Mines like that too. I thought it was normal. I was worried about crud getting in the crack but its been fine and doesn't affect anything on the phone.
I just tried to take a macro shot of it and had no luck. Wonder if I should swap it out. Really don't want to get stuck with one that actually has an issue.
i'm more worried about dust under the glass. having that gap, i'm sure it will

Closer inspection shows there is some dust in there but not a lot at all. I have 8 days to decide on swapping it. Don't know how many returns wirefly allows.
Where did you get your phone from? Would they swap it out for that.

Mine does not have that issue.
To be fair, there is a tiny (I mean really tiny) gap on both sides but nothing that looks out of place. It appears it's by design.
Yours appears to be much worse.

I pulled my case off just to check and i have a very noticeable gap on the left and bottom sides of my screen. Its not enough of a reason for me to exchange it but its there. I always have the body glove case on so i dont ever see it

I believe that these small gaps are by design, seriously. Think about the dispersion of shock when the device hits the ground. If it was perfectly flush with the
metal it would be way more likely to crack instantly..with the gap some energy escapes giving the glass a small but crucial release of pressure.

Mine looks like his but I only see the glue they use or whatever they use to seal the screen.
Yeah. The left side has a really small gap but the right is pretty big. Its big enough i can stick my fingernail in it.

Thinking about doing an exchange but I'm worried about getting this issue

Seems to he pretty common. I personally dont have the issue or any issues build wise on my current phone. Its risky because I think I can only exchange one time.
Yeah. That's what I'm worried about. Going in to exchange it tomorrow morning and gonna check the hell out of the phone before I leave the store.
I noticed it more today when I got my TPU case and the right side would get caught up on the gap.
Better pics of the gap. one of the left with the smallest gap and one of the right like grand canyon (ok...may not as big, but close )

[HELP] Is there any way to replace arms on scree

I just noticed today that bottom of the 2 arms that the screen piviots on when you open it is missing. Is there a way to replace that? Can I buy replacement ones?
It's on the speaker side (left side when open), bottom arm (not with the bar going across)

I just want to clarify something real quick, there are NO arms on the left side? Because there are only 3 arms in total, one on left and two on the right

Not a problem! As for that I have no idea, I only think that HTC could replace that sadly..
If you can find the parts then I don't see why you couldn't put them in yourself.

I'm guessing the 3rd arm is just there in order to keep the screen parallel with the keyboard when you open the screen. If it only had 2 hinges, I think it would allow the screen to move so that it is oblique to the keyboard as you are opening it, which would look sloppy. If its there just to keep the screen in position, and not for strength, it would explain why there are only 3, not 4.
Yes you can replace them, and there is a thread here walking you through the process if you search for it. And yes there are three in total. 2 on the right, one the left, plus the cable connecting the screen and keyboard.

Also while i dont have the link on hand ther is a website that sells all the parts to the vision. Pretty cheap too. When i saw that new screens were around $20 i quit using stupid screen protectors....go figure i havnt scratched it yet anyway.

Anyone Getting this? -After First Phone Drop-

So I just dropped my phone from about 4 feet. Now there is this noise above front-face camera on the top of the phone. I layed the phone down....from top to botton on the desk and heard a strange noise. I was suspicious so then I tapped the phone (camera area) with my hand and the noise reappeared. The bottom part of the phone is fine, nothing coming out of it. I think some parts or loose are something. I checked the battery cover and it seemed fine. Everything was locked and in place. And I took it off and tested it again by tapping the phone on my palm and the noise came back. I checked the screen for damage or any color distortion and there was luckily none. The camera's are working fine. It sounds like something is inside that is ricocheting around the top of the phone. Not sure if its some part or altered physical hardware. Please Help! Any speculations? THanks you in advance.
Btw: Anyone know how to fix the weak wifi signal issues also?
bump. Anyone please?
Dropped it several times from about 1 and a half meters on concrete (I seem to be a little clumsy ^^). No issues at all...
If you can't figure out what's the reason for your strange sounds, you should send it to Samsung/your Provider to have it checked.

It's probably the rear camera autofocus lens. My past three phones with an autofocus camera did the same thing. Annoying but common.

Wonky Camera?

Hi guys,
I've had a Note 2 for a couple of weeks now and its a fantastic bit of kit, I have noticed that when the back cover in place the camera appears to be lower on the bottom right corner (more deeply recessed into the case back) and you can feel it too. However if you remove the battery cover the assembly seems to be pretty level. Just wondered if any one else had noticed this? Is this normal etc?
Cheers
Yes dats how it is...seems kinda tilted downwards

how to emulate a circle case?

Tonight I placed my g3 on top of my nexus 7, and it made it look like it was in a circle case..i.e. the clock appeared. My nexus 7 has a magnetic case.
I've been unable to get it to do it again, I wondered if it was possible to simulate a circle case placing a magnet somewhere? Anyone got a case and can tell me if it contains a magnet and where that is?
I believe it's somewhere on the rear
