Ipad Air 2 sound vibration issue

Very dissapointed with my newly bought Ipad air 2 128GB because of the vibration issue when using internal speaker, I did not see the same issue happen on my 3 years old Ipad 2 and my ipod touch.

Returning the device won't get full refund to me , especially in Malaysia, can Apple do something to remove the vibration for existing users who have bought the IPad Air 2. I hope apple can come out some recall or resolution to eliminate the vibration issue, or else compensate a Bluetooth speaker to every IPad air 2 owner also welcome.

iPad Air, iOS 8.2

That's normal for the iPad Air 2. It's not a problem. There won't be any recall.

beloncy that happens because of a pretty lame design, Apple's goal was to make an even slimmer device, they did it, yes, but at a cost...

Also try to press the back of your ipad while you are holding it, you are gonna see the screen distorted while is being pressed.

I don't see any screen distortion when pressing the back, even press slightly harder. It is fine to me because i won't bend my ipad air 2. Some more i have a case to protect my ipad which can minimize the distortion issue by giving pressure from the back.

but the speaker issue is really annoying and only happens on ipad air 2 , i didn't see the issue been so obvious on other ipad (ipad 2 3 4 air mini...). Can we ask for compensation from Apple?

Apple should recall to replace the speaker or putting some material to absorb the vibration.

Hopefully apple can come out some workaround such as giving all the ipad air 2 user a lightweight external speaker which is able to attach on the current ipad, or a light weight bluetooth speaker at least. It is still better than doing nothing on their defective product.😠

I would like to see some kind of ipad case with bluetooth speaker support, but still can't find a similar items in the market because it is not necessary for the previous generation of ipad.
