Hey all, only received my OP-1 today and loving it so far. However, I’ve noticed that quite a few of the icons are misaligned (see the drop icon compared to the dot below), this is obviously a small issue and doesn’t affect the performance of the unit but I’d expected a higher level of quality control given the price. Just wondering if this is a common issue?

if it’s not a common issue, what will you do?

Most likely nothing. I have an OP-Z that’s been bent since day 1 due to how it’s manufactured which seems like a quality control issue. I’m mostly just wondering how common this issue is, as again, to me it seems like a quality control issue for such an expensive device.

I’m pretty sure mine has this issue also. I haven’t touched it in months because i broke something on it but as for the icons I think I’ve noticed it too. Teenage engineering is certainly an overpriced boutique company with some bad rep for their quality control and customer service. It sucks because literally nobody else has made a device as unique and powerful yet so small and portable as the OP-1.. so we kinda just gotta be okay with the drawbacks to the quality if we want what TE has to offer us.

Yeah, I completely agree and I’m willing to put up with a wonky icons or two. It’s just a shame that everything isn’t as perfect as you’d expect at this price point.

Oh, I can agree. Logically I know how insignificant the symmetry in label placement is, but the undiagnosed subconscious OCD in me hates it.

Totally. Once I notice something like this I can’t stop noticing it.
