The effort to fix is appreciated, but another way that requires no tools is to return it for one without the problem. That seems the best option, unless a person has no choice. It is supposed to be a retail product and no need for fixing.

Mine has been perfect but now clicks any time I touch the top right corner. Seems like there's some seperation between body and screen.
What's the Google and Asus warranties look like? I have no idea.

There's two ways to go:
-If you bought it through Google PS call them and do an exchange.
-If you bought through anywhere else first try to exchange through the store. If that doesn't work you should go through Asus (You have to pay to ship it to them)
Apparently Google PS will do replacements for one year. Best of all you can keep your old one until the new one arrives and they pay shipping both ways. Asus also has a one year warranty but you have to pay for shipping and you're without a tablet for a while.

Yeah it's a great exchange process. It just get's annoying losing game progress all the time if you don't root.

Have these problems been happening evenly between 8G and 16G tablets, or have they been in primarily one over the other? I know it shouldn't make a difference, but I'm just curious.

Does the screen lift tend to worsen? On day 1, I thought it was somewhat acceptable... but if it's just going to get worse, I suppose I should get on this RMA process.

It definitely gets worse quickly. Mine was so miniscule and all of a sudden lift started to develop on the whole left side. Just go ahead and do the RMA. You shouldn't have to deal with this issue.

How much was yall's rising? My left edge seems a few cm higher at most if I run finger around the edge from top the left edge seems to fall off easier than the right side. Should I be worried?
Where do i contact them about this problem? Mine seems to have started rising slightly along the left edge and i am worried about missing the deadline for reporting it.
