Hello everyone. I finally got my SP2 in the mail last week and just got around to opening it today. Without having any pictures ready at the moment, I wanted to see if anyone had this issue out of the box.
Where the "crease" of the kickstand meets the body of the Surface, I have a small portion of the top edge where the dark grey finish is already rubbed off. It happens to be lined up right where the screw-hinge is hidden underneath, which makes me believe something over here is the cause. The two edges of my kickstand aren't 100% flush, but they aren't on my SP1 either, so I'm not too worried about that. The area where the finish has rubbed off is maybe 2mm in length, so it's a very small part. But you know how it goes; I can't stop staring at it from time to time, haha.
Anyone with this? In any case, what would you do? This is a 512GB, and while I do understand that for the price I shouldn't really have this situation, I also partly don't want to deal with a potentially messy exchange process (resistance from store, second setup, have to buy more screen protectors, etc.) and the tablet may inevitably incur some cosmetic damage over time, as well (though I baby my electronics to some silly lengths, sometimes).
