    I recently bought an Asus Vivobook 15 and yesterday I noticed that when i move the lid (to close it or just by gently hitting the table so that the lid wobbles very slightly) on both the right and left areas near where the hinges are, that causes very small ripple effects (like when you press an lcd). I had noticed the same effect on an Acer laptop that i then sent back to the store, and I wanted to know if that’s normal. The effect is really little, unnoticeable if I hadn’t seen it in the first place. My suggestion was that maybe the hinge keeps the lid more straight in those places, so when i move the screen that’s the part where it is more rigid. Let me know what you think cause it doesn’t bother me at all and I just wanted to know if it’s harmful, and sorry if my English is not perfect but I’m not a native speaker!
