The first time I saw un-even lighting on my monitor I couldn't stop seeing them for a whole year. And on my iPad mini I had this speck on the screen that just annoyed the crap out of me until I stopped being lazy and finally went to the Apple store to replace it.
Yeah I know see I've had two HDXs now the first one had a faint haze to it and I love it but it started flickering like the brightness went crazy so Amazon replaced it with this one and this one has a bright neon blue border around it that shows even on pics!

Despite what Amazon said they messed up BIG time and turned a Kindle into a non reading device. Many and I do many are returning it because they can't read on it.
