Mine has a dead pixel right off the center of the screen. I did not want to go back to the store today but I have to.
I'm disappointed in the performance of the device as well. Wifi wouldn't stay connected, touch cover kept losing connection (if you watch a video in full screen, you need to take touch cover off and on afterwards.. Really Panos? You never have to take touch cover off?), games don't work (LAG!), speakers crackle if you have more than one app open... I'm going to exchange mine, but I really considered just getting my money back. A device this expensive should work better. Did Microsoft blatantly lie about the usability of this thing or did everybody just get defective units?
I don't think MS blatantly lied about anything. You probably received a defective unit and are clearly not happy about that, which is understandable.
I am not sure why you need to take the touch cover off when you watch a full screen video. I have been watching full screen videos on HULU, Netflix and HBO GO and never had to take the cover off.
Like most other folks in here, I think that there are a few quirks which are all fixable.
