nexus 7 screen flickering

So this only Happens when I'm on Google chrome and I've noticed that ocassionally that the screen flickers, its not crazy annoying but definitely distracting. Have any of you had this problem?

Hopefully any of you aren't epileptic.

I totally thought that I had either 1. developed serious eye problems or 2. broke my brand new toy

At least it's not just me having this problem

so set and wait.

So I should just wait for a fix and not return it over and over to try to find a good one. It has a year warranty.

I turned off automatic brightness and I think that solved it. I think it was flickering when it was changing brightness.

its still there with auto off.

And with the brightness up but it so slight u have to be ocd like I am about my stuff to see it. But its easy to tell its not hardware because games like sonic CD are beautiful.
