iPad Battery swelling up?

[Yankeesxd]

well on the back of my ipad the silver part, the bottom right and bottom left feels a bit heavier then the top right and left. Can anyone check their ipad and tell me if this is normal? or is the battery swelling up?thanks guys

I've checked and nothing. Sorry about yours though.

Swelling means it's getting bigger. If you see a bulge then I'd worry.

it's not budging but the bottom seems heavier then the top is this normal?

Hmmm, my iPad feels balanced - if I put my finger in the middle of the Apple apple on the back it seems to balance around this point. But don't try this whilst standing, because if it doesn't balance then it's a long fall.

Go to an apple store and compare their models against yours.

To be honest I think you're just thinking too much. If a dodgy battery swells up the chemicals inside are reacting with themselves. The volume expands. There is no additional mass input (conservation of mass) so there's no way it can get any heavier.

Unless it's reacting with oxygen which in that case your battery may probably... er... explode? Even if a dodgy battery does partially react with oxygen you're talking about minuscule amounts.

And even if it swells up it will not change the centre of mass of the iPad through deformation (to a large extent). Really.

STOP MAKING SENSE.

What do you mean the bottom feels heavier than the top? It's one solid piece?

I have a better question. SJ says (paraphrase) "There is no wrong way to hold an iPad". So where IS the bottom?

iPad Question

So i realized on the back of my ipod the left corner where the speaker is seems bigger then the right side. Is this normal? or is there something wrong with my battery? I just got my ipad few days ago so i just want to make sure can anyone confirm this? Thanks alot

everything should be symmetric in relation to the ipad body.

like on the side of the speakers on the back it feels a little bigger then the right side without the speakers

Should be the same size.

As for your Title, this form is about iPad, so it is either a question or comment.
