This is great feedback guys...the main reason I started this poll is there are other threads where people talk about it and someone else jumps in and says "take it back"...it looks like if you took it back you'd very likely end up with the same thing...

I have yet to use the tilt so it doesn't bother me otherwise...

nope i dont have this issue im on the wiforum so i cant do the poll but i have the verizon tp2! also havent found any reason to even use the tilt function! im even losing the use of a hardware keyboard so i might switch when the diamond2 comes out! seems keyboardless = faster device!

verizon tp2 with slight wobble. no bother as most have mentioned. never really tilt it to be honest, i only open it to use the keyboard for typing, then close her back up.

After voting can you all please post your vote along with what carrier you have?

I am starting this thread because I have a slight "wobble" in my screen (Sprint) but otherwise I do not have ANY issues with my TP2 (no dead/stuck pixels, etc) so I am afraid to exchange it just because of the "wobble"...

EDIT: To clarify I mean front to back...when tilted if I push the back of my screen towards the front, it moves a little and when letting go it sits back to where it started...
No dead or stuck pixels? I wouldn't exchange that phone due to a wobble in a million years. All the TP2's I have seen, both T-Mobile and Sprint have it. Most (actually all but 1 that I have personally seen) have stuck pixels too so consider yourself lucky and just live with the wobble.

Oh I agree...there's no way I am exchanging...I wanted to make this poll to get people to relax about the wobble...I would see people post about the wobble (or the youtube videos) and others would tell them to take it back immediately...as you can see from the poll, it is quite a common thing...

I think this wobble is mostly an unavoidable by-product of a design that allows infinite tilt angles. The alternatives would be click stops at fixed angles, or making the tilt hinge mechanism so stiff that it would be very hard to move.

Flat (untilted) is a definite position, so it gets a clickstop. In the flat position the screen is also supported by the top portion of the keyboard half of the phone, which makes it more solid.

The wobble at other tilt angles is the result of the "infinite tilt angles" design. The alternatives would be fixed tilt positions (more click stops) or making the hinge so tight that it would be a pain to adjust it. I think they made the right design choice.

(Edit: I didn't intend to post essentially the same thing twice....thought the first post got lost.)
