    I just got this laptop, great little piece of laptop, although, my only issue is the trackpad isnt leveled correctly, now im not very experienced with laptops... but i saw some other kind of laptop all of them are always leveled... idk if its made on purpose or its a defect?! any one of u has this?
    it dips on the left side, and the right side is really near-flushed with the body

    i did replace it , its my second one like this

    what should i do? thank you

    Yes, the pad should be level and near-flush on each side. There have been a few reports of similar problems.

    Hey john I just picked up this laptop too and have the same problem. Is this a big issue for the future usage of the touchpad?

    It shouldn't affect usability.

    Thanks john, I went to check out demos at my retailer...All of them seem to have this design... slightly dips on the left side. I returned it and picked up a NP780Z5E-S02CA.
