iPad Air Pressing on iPad screen - flutter/distortion

[ejewels]

Hey everyone, simple question. When pressing harder on the ipad screens (air 4 and ipp here)... do you get a little liquid-y distortion thing around where you press? Its like the screen presses down and affects other areas close by. Same with the pencil. Not light pressing, but when you start pressing harder. I saw a post that suggested it can signal of a bent ipad but it seems like its normal considering the technology. Whats the deal?

It’s normal but I’ve noticed my iPad Air 4 is significantly more susceptible compared to my iPhone or even the 10.5 Pro I had.

I was actually going to post about this because I don’t even need to press hard…it’s like the glass is super thin?

Not happening on my 12.9" M1 Pro.

I haven't experienced that behavior with my iPad Pro 2020.

maybe its more an air thing. The pro is beefier.

Thicker you mean?

yeah maybe the glass isn't as thick? It's usable, just seeing what other air people experience. Also, don't get me started on how I bought 2 airs, wanting to return one and both do it, as well as both have their own backlight bleed issues. One has it in that infamous spot, the other has 2 corners of the screen that are brighter on dark backgrounds. Ugh, idk what to do. Play the screen lottery more or just keep one of them. It's mostly for my kid, but at $550 it should be near perfect.
