AimLXJ Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I'm not up-to-date about tablets nor do I use one much, but my parents recently bought one and it seems like there's an issue with the touch screen. If I were to slightly poke the back leathery part (not hard) the touch screen intercepts it as if I were touching the screen, so is the back leathery part that sensitive? Because it's just unacceptable if I were to have it laying on my palm or thigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AimLXJ Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 Here's a video of it: https://dl.dropbox.c...0746/Nexus7.3gp I have the touch feedback enabled, under debug mode, where it displays a white circle when an action occurs (pressing, click, etc...). It only happens to the left side and also, it some times randomly "clicks" even when I'm not touching it at all. Forgot to mention, it just came out of the box so it's brand new.

nekkidtruth Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Seems like a defect to me. Is it possible to exchange it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AimLXJ Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 Seems like a defect to me. Is it possible to exchange it? The problem is that my parents thinks the flaw is part of the "advance" technology, so I'm trying my best to convince them that the Nexus 7 they got is definitely broken lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekkidtruth Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Hah. Well I think they only way you're going to prove that is by exchanging it ;) Aside from searching the Internet for others who have this problem. Perhaps it's wide spread? Personally I haven't heard of any such issues with the Nexus 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detection Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 There's no protective film over the screen that could be conducting your touch across the screen is there? If not, RMA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
