Gap in between screen and frame

[janjan]

Has anyone noticed a gap between screen and frame. I have found a small gap on the front top (front side) . I'm afraid that dirt and/or humidity could enter at this place. Just want to know whether this is a common/acceptable issue. I have HTC 10 Silver. There is no gap in bottom but only in front side..Take a look the following pictures.

I'd exchange it to prevent dirt build up in there. Sorry pal, there are bound to be more lemons in the early batches :\

So it seems that both Silver and Grey have gap. But the question is...Is it a common/acceptable issue? We need more people to check their HTC 10. Thanks b0gd4n

After watching the teardown video on the YouTube. It looks like the screen is a little bit smaller than the frame for engineering tolerance and easier desassembly.

It could be for engineering tolerance and easier disassembly. But It could be possible by heating up only the edge. Dont need to heat the middle part. Actually he starts disassembling from the edge.

AND in the following video he starts from the middle part.

Mind the gap! I have it too... pictures attached. I also noticed that the microsd tray rests really deep in the slot, leaving the chassis's sharp edges visible and unpleasant to the touch. Perhaps I am really picky when it comes to flagship phones, however, I can not overcome the yellow spots on the display:
MODEL ID: 2PS6200
HTC 10 (Glacier Silver)

My provider agreed to exchange the faulty unit with another one, just need to wait for it 5 more days. If I noticed the same issues again, I will go for an S7...

I have seen two demo units at store. One silver and one gold, both have noticeable gap at the top part of the display. Pretty disappointed since this is a 2016 flagship.

What about the microsd tray? Was it also too further in the slot leaving sharp edges exposed?

 

[richii0207]

No gap here.

 

[devsk]

OMG!

 

[Aukutsutsu]

Mine seems to have the same gap. I also do not care and won't be returning it for something so minor...

if you are afraid about dust etc... then go for an Sony XZ5 (IP68 certified)
