    I recently bought an Edge 14, and right away after receiving it (I bought it online), I noticed something off about the screen. It's hard to describe, but basically there's noticeable space between the columns of pixels. It's not blatantly obvious, but it makes the screen look like it has tiny pinstriping. It's not a big deal if I have to warranty it, I'm just hoping for some confirmation as to whether it's a defect or not.

    Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately pictures don't show the problem. I'll try to explain it a little better. The screen looks pixelated but only vertically. There's tiny spaces between the columns of pixels (much smaller than the width of the pixels). It makes text and images have jagged edges. The screen has a much higher pixel density than my desktop monitor, which doesn't have this problem. Hope that clarifies it better.
