Minority iPad 2 suffers backlight bleeding

Apparently the iPad 2 won’t be able to escape ‘defects on arrival’ that also haunted the iPhone 4 during release. Of course, bear in mind that this issue is among a few iPads out of millions sold, so the problem shouldn’t be consistence. The first issue that many spotted is the same yellow spots beneath the LCD glass, reminiscent of the same fresh-from-the-factory iPhone 4 issue that resolved itself just as soon as the bonding agent used for the LCD glass had time to evaporate.
The second issue, which is being conflated with the first, is characterized by light bleeding through from the outer edges of the LCD panel. The bleeding is most noticeable when watching a dark scene in a movie or using an app with a black background. For those affected, the issue can be minimized or exacerbated by adjusting the brightness in settings. Of course, Apple has mentioned that exchange will be available once stock is replenished in the Apple store.
