I swapped my 64GB out for a 1TB immediately after opening mine. Everything works....except the left shoulder button. It often doesn't click when pressed and even when it does register in game as a button press, its very smushy feeling. A quick search online suggests its a very common problem.

I just bought it during the recent Summer sale so it's still very new. Given that the issue isn't related to the SSD swap, would they still honor warranty and take care of the problem? I would swap the 64GB back in before sending it in, of course. Or am I just better off buying the part and following iFixit's tutorial?

I had to rma mine for a battery issue. I swapped my 1tb drive out for the standard one and I had no issues. It also mad it easier when I got my new one. I was even short a screw and I never heard anything.
