I have had my Smartwatch for a week and really like it
But today I noticed that half the screen is no longer flush with the metal frame that surrounds it.
This is affecting the top left of the screen diagonally and is very noticeable when using the screen.
I haven't dropped the watch or handled it roughly at all.
Has anybody else noticed anything similar?
Was it ever flush? Mine is similar to yours, but has been that way since i got it. The raised edges seem to regular to be a flaw
Yes it is very different to how it was, I noticed it because it no longer sits in the strap very well.
The other corner is completely flush with the frame.

So I'm wondering if anyone has noticed this on their device, or if I'm just going crazy. The metallic frame/band that runs along the outside of the phone appears to be raised slightly higher in relation to the glass on the right side of the phone (facing you) than on the left. If I run my finger over the screen and the edge there is a noticeable difference between the screen and the frame on the right side of the screen but not on the left, top, or bottom. I don't know if this is just some sort of imperfection, like the glass is recessed on that side or if it's just how the phone is. Anyone see something similar on their device?
I notcied it on mine too.. Just slightly though.. Not enough to notice until I pick it out. Thought I was the only one with eyesight going bad.

You are not the first person iv heard of with a problem like this so i would have it checked out by the people you got it from and get an exchange if possible..
I have noticed this too. I have a Verizon S4 and have been looking for anyone else with this problem. I don't know about you but it is driving me nuts having the unevenness feeling when I hold the phone. Please update if you try to get a replacement.
After about a few days of owning this phone, I noticed that I have a gap between the glass and the top rim of my phone. I'm really noticing it now more than before because of the amount of dust that is building up. The gap isn't on any of the other three edges. Does anybody else have this issue?
I don't have a good way to snap a picture of my phone right now but it's really similar to this guy: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1-Compact/Z1c-Screen-Issues/td-p/704223
Not much response to his questions, which is why I'm asking.
I too have the similar issue. But, If you look close enough(at right light), you can see the dust at the bottom gap as well. This dust doesn't seem to go even after a swim/wash. And this dust thing does bother me a lot sometimes.

I don't have any dust at the bottom since there isn't a gap. The top gap is about .75mm wide. Not huge by any means but big enough to notice. I almost feel it would be better if it were even all the way around. Dust on only one edge looks more obvious to me.
Just under the volume button is popping out. After about a month or so thinking it was the case - I just put on a Samsung stock case and I believed it was not attached to the phone. Turns out, today I was looking a little deeper and the glass screen is bowing up from the bottom. Another words, you can push with your thumb on the back cover and it will bulge up while the frame stays. Never been dropped or even hardly carried.
Anyone else seen or heard of this?
Nobody had any issues of the glass pushing up in the middle left side of the phone under the volume button. I might as well play the lotto then......or not.
Ok, looks like my battery is a bit swollen and may have caused it??? Anyone else notice anything?
Mines been fine
I have had mine since last November, It has been in an Otterbox for the better part of six months, I have not noticed anything like you are describing.
My phone is awesome. So is it's condition.
My screen seems to be showing a bit of warping right at the bottom of the screen near the back and home buttons, right on the edge of the screen. Not so much that you notice but it warps the light if you use the screen to reflect the world, and only in that spot. Bit disappointed considering its a totally flat piece of glass!
Anyone else got this issue? Might get onto three about it. I'll see if it's widespread first.
I'll try get a picture later, or video if I can.
Warped like raised wavy or warped like wrapped screen that goes downwards into it at the edge? If either of those makes sense..
I saw that when in 120hz mode, but it looked more like an intended effect to me. It wasn't unpleasant in my eyes.
Also seemed to only happen on long scrolling windows. Short scrolling I could not see it.
I would say it's a pinch under the glass, but the glass looks fine, just reflections of the surroundings in the glass so right where the back button is. It's definitely not lifting and looks flat, but the light dances and create an almost m shape. It's far from anything serious, as you need to look for it, but just something to keep an eye on for early adopters.
I don't think the screen refresh affects it, as I can recreate with screen off.
Got pics from the screen, using my **** ipad camera. But you can see the warp. The white shelf is flat, being a shelf, so you can see it shows as straight up the screen then at the bottom forms an m shape.

Huh, i can see what your on about.
Mine doesnt have that, so maybe your device has a defect.
Hi guys,
I have got a fold 3 but when I open it up it seems to be at about 175 degree rather than 180. If I look down the line along the top of the phone when open with one eye I can see it slightly bend off. Should the device open completely straight?
If I look at the back of the device when it's open, I can just see some of the samsung logo on the hinge, like a fingernail gap. Should the two edges of the phone be touching each other when open.
I will try add photos later.
^ Agree - mine does not sit perfectly flat on a desk either. There is always the slightest wobble. If you press down, it will go flat but then the small gap returns.
Yeah, I would worry about that as mine opens flat, you cannot see the Samsung Logo at all.
Yeah, it wobbles a little when open and laying flat because of the camera bump. That's normal. It should be open a full 180 degrees. Unless there is something wrong with mine. LOL!
Like @Talderon said, it should sit flat. When mine is unfolded I cannot see the hinge and the two edges touch.
HOWEVER... When I took it out of the box it was not like that! Like you said, mine didn't quite fold open to 180 degrees. Mine opened to about 178.5 degrees. Just not quite flat unfolded. I think the hinge may need a break in period, IDK?
But I did notice the same thing you did and when I went to check again, I noted it was reaching 180 degrees now. After two months of use is seemingly more fluid than when I originally folded it so I think the break in period is real thing with this hinge.
Mine stopped opening fully and I logged this with Samsung UK through the customer service app. I had to send them some photos and they arranged for an engineer to come round and do a home repair. He ended up changing the inner screen, outer screen and batteries, under warranty. He said he basically just put my Fold's motherboard in a new chassis.
Took him about an hour and it now folds completely flat, is stiffer and opens with a small snap as it becomes flat. Way different to the way it was before he changed everything over. The inner screen crease is also a lot less noticeable now than it was.
