I looked it over and noticed no screen defects but there is a small scratch on the back. Not really a big deal seeing it will always be in its case.

Now here's the thing. The blue border is really bad on this one! On the other one there was some shadowing on this there is toothpaste blue border around edges. It really stands out on light colored backgrounds. Also I am noticing that this one gets really warm and smells like something is burning. I don't remember that on the other one. I am keeping an eye on it and hoping that's just new electronic smell and it will go away but the warmness of the back concerns me.

Sound is better on this one less tinny. No flicking whatsoever in books!
That is too much "stuff" on it. It pays to send it back again for a replacement.
