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.

Seems hard to believe they wouldn't notice something like this prior to shipping them out in masses.
