Samsung Galaxy Note 4 owners complain of uneven 'gaps' around screen
As IT Today reports, numerous buyers have described how the gap is large enough to slot in a business card or a couple of sheets of paper into it. On some handsets, the gap is at the top or bottom; on others, it can be found along the left or right edges of the display.
As with the iPhone 'bentgate' issue, we must sound a note of caution, and point out that the number of users reporting this imperfection on the Galaxy Note 4 is tiny (although given that Samsung has sold only around 30,000 units so far, the proportion of handsets affected by the problem will be much larger than with 'bentgate').
Given that Samsung plans to rapidly expand availability of the Galaxy Note 4 to 140 markets in the next four weeks, this is clearly a headache that the company would much rather do without. Nonetheless, it's hard to imagine how Samsung will explain this as anything other than a manufacturing issue, but we'll have to wait and see how it addresses the problem.

I honestly wouldn't care for a little gap, it's a NOTE 4 for crying out loud. These phones are awesome even if they're completely destroyed.

All these new phones getting released with manufacturing errors makes me think that the major phone companies are getting even more money hungry.
Although, this could be a genuine mistake on their part, and if so I hope they get it fixed.
