A defect with iPhone 4 Screen/Casing
I noticed this yesterday, pushing on the left side of my screen in the middle and releasing creates a little sticking sound like walking on a sticky floor. It is only on the left side and isn't as much troublesome but more of annoyance.
I am curious am I alone in experiencing this or has anyone else discovered this as well. I've never dropped my iPhone and got it 4 days after launch so I consider this a manufacturing defect.

not here, take it back but they will most likely blame you for dropping it. If don't have any scuffs then you will have a good case.

Did you try cleaning the screen lol? Sounds like you have some residue probably from a screen protector or something you ate on your fingers lol. Just wipe down the screen with SOME water, note don't give your iPhone a shower it will wreck it lol.

Who sits there and does this to their phone??!!?? Are you a former crack addict? I had a buddy on crack that would sit there and nitpick carpet until the fibers were as clean as the day the carpet was made. I don't know what ever happened to that guy, but I hope he didn't but an i4!!

Okay geniuses, the screen does it every time I use it. I don't just sit there pushing it, it was the only way to demo the issue.

What's the deal with busting the guys balls ?
He posted a perfectly reasonable question FFS.
Anyway.
Dude, it may be related to the yellow screen issue - attributed to uncured glue under the screen.
