From your forum and blog browsing, would you say these defects are extremely common, like I should expect one if not all of them? Or maybe they are just more common than they should be and I might still get a good one?

apparently the bulge that Dillon was talking about is pretty prominent. But I'd say you're likely to get one of the ones i listed on the last page, the screen ones are rare compared to the physical ones. but i'm sure if i didn't bring it up you wouldn't notice at all |

the bulge is only after extended/intensive use, so i'm not sure how much of that you'll have time for! |

Omg the one I thought I cancelled with Google just got delivered, lol.
I'll guess I'll give the one with the derped screen to my brother in that case. Hopefully the new one doesn't have a messed up screen... I'll check when I get home :/.
