[Q] Gaps at the edges of the screen - Galaxy Tab General

Hi all,
i see gaps at the edges of the screen and the body of the galaxy tab
my concern is due to the gap being very noticeable and can give chance for dust to enter
do any of you tab owners see this gap or is it only me who got it?
i will add pics in the evening if my questions is not clear

I cant see any gaps that can let dust enter underneath.
Ciao

small gap on screen

have you guys notice small gap between the glass and the silver plastic rim around it,visible only on bright environment..
i've noticed this on the first day. My friend said he read something about this on other phones to. I'm guessing its because of it being glass. It is design to protect the screen so when you get a bump on side it will not break the gorilla glass. I think

Might be true, maybe its for design purposes, in mine its only noticeable on the top area, but when using the phone normally you will not notice it because of its black color..
It's generally used as a seal to keep dust from entering the phone.

Silver? Mine is smoked grey metal

Yeah i just noticed it on mine. Wonder if we should be worried about the screen popping out of the frame or something. The gap is more prominent on the right side of the screen when looking at it. Top and bottom has no gaps. Hmmm...
Mine looks like it has an equal amount of gab and some dust that settled in.
its made like that. like what someone said above, its to protect the edges of the glass from shattering.
The glass on mine is a bit off centre, cant see it unless looking right at it in light.

I had the same glitches. Down and on the left side of the screen. Got the screen replaced by Samsung. The frame and the screen is stuck together from the factory. Now it sits really tight.

So is it a factory defect then? Unit seems to be working flawlessly though and no screen glitches
I noticed a tiny little gap on the bottom most part of my screen and the frame. It's not very visible, but it seems to be collecting a little bit of dust.
I never noticed it before reading this thread.

Strange bezel defect...

I must noticed the bezel on my new GT 10.1 has a small bump on the top left edge of the bezel.
I thought it may be a scratch, but it looks lime a casting defect... Has anyone else seen odd bits on the plastic bezel?
I'm thinking if exchanging it, but won't bother if its pretty normal.
Thanks!

Feel free to take an image. But that corner and the opposite is where the to pieces joins on my tab.
Yep... mine has the same thing too. Mine is on every single corner. I doubt this is a defect, I never even noticed it until I seen your post and looked very closely.
When held in landscape mode, the 'bump' is on the left side, on the bezel surface that is flush with the bezel and directly above the speaker.
Ie I felt it as a bump becuase it was right next to the edge of the screen.
I will try and take picture..

Strange spot at the corner of the screen

Hello
I have just bought an S4 i9505 two days ago (used) and I noticed as a moisture effect (maybe air bubble) under the glass screen at the upper right corner of the screen. Anyone know a trick to remove it? Thank's
PS: It is not due to the protective film
Looks to me like the adhesive holding screen has gone/screen started lifting from casing. Might need to take back under warranty.

Looks like the screen may have been replaced at one time. It may be the picture but the speaker mesh looks sunken in and gapped between the glass and housing. The way the screen is assembled originally is the glass has a thin sheet under that is almost like a flake material and it looks like it's separating from the glass.

peel the plastic layer from the flash area ?

Hi all
I am a recent happy owner of s7 edge
I notice there is a plastic screen saver covering the flash area (and I think another one in the camera square) and it is peeling on one side
this might be a stupid basic question but should I peel it off ?

The plastic you see was also on the front and the side when you unboxed it. You removed that one. It's to protect the device during manufacturing. You can remove it. Let it on there. Your choice

I think I´ll take it out and the lens one also if I can
I didnt take the plastic thingy from the cam... that small film is all scratched by now...

[CLOSED] Phone damaged heavily, remove the screen protector and apply another one?

Hello, I got a Samsung Galaxy note 3 recently as a hand me down thing from my sis but the Crack on the phone is really irritating me when using the S pen as I just keep feeling the crack, here's a desc of the damage:
Crack on Bottom Left, screen protector exposed but looks a bit too thick in my opinion but could be it
Metal like sides on the bottom left gone leaving the inner covering seen not the components
Damage on other parts of the metal sides, dark Grey like but mostly OK
Deep damage on the what I think is the screen protector but possibly the screen as the bottom left metal sides are gone
Cracks are noticible to the eye and there's one with the shape of a thumb? (Watch out Saitama this is "one thumb guy")
I went into the box of the note seeing what's in it and I found a ton of random screen protectors but they don't look powerful
Should I:
A. Remove the current protector and replace it?
B. Put the screen protector on the screen protector (idek why I made this an option XD)
C. Let it be
Other info: Codename hlte, model SM-N9005.
I meant the bottom Right
