Just wanted to chime in that my new evo has the same leak/lift issue.
The consensus seems to be that this is normal? is it worth getting a new one?
Coming from the Incredible I am a little disappointed but its not too bad. The Incredibles screen is much better with no light leakage what so ever. The power button is bigger and easier to use and I liked the optical trackball.
Evo has a much bigger screen obviously but looks terrible from angles. Both phones run fast on 2.2 and are nice and smooth software wise. battery covers are about the same but the micro sd slot is under the battery on the evo. big fail there. also miss the 8gb internal memory on the Incredible.
Overall I'm not sold yet and the EVO may just go back after 29 days. We'll see if it grows on me lol. one thing it definitely needs smaller icons or higher resolution. I don't need .5" icons on the screen
