iPad Air 2 speaker vibration

I Just bought an IPad Air 2 yesterday and found out this speaker vibrating issue the very same day. I like all the other new features, but this vibrating whenever I play music or video is a big problem for me from keeping it. It may not be a big deal for some people, but it's a deal breaker for me. I will have to return this iPad Air 2 even though I like everything else except this one issue. I am a loyal customer of Apple, but I wish this issue was taken into consideration when IPad Air 2 was put into production. This hand held device makes listening music while reading difficult for me, to ignore the vibration is kind of hard. Sorry I really liked the new iPad, thin, fast...etc but this one problem ruined my experience because it kept vibrating when I am playing audio and video. I do hope Apple will look into this and resolve it in future versions, please!

iPad Air, iOS 8.1, iPad Air 2

Space Grey iPad Air 2 -- had speaker vibration problems and other speaker problems (popping noises & dropped sound). Went to the Apple Store today and they exchanged it for a new iPad Air 2. I've been using it for 3 hours so far without any problems. Hopefully, it will stay problem-free. Seems like a hardware problem on my previous iPad Air 2.

Returning my iPad Air 2 Space Grey as it's a deal breaker for me as I usually stream Spotify while reading. Having have had other iPads this is definitely abnormal and I must say was really disappointed as this is not what I have come to expect from a company that believes in products that just work. Looks like I will stick to my iPad Mini 2 for now.
