Anyone else notice that one side of their image is always a bit soft/blurry on the Pocket 2? I'm hoping it's just a fluke and have a replacement coming. On my Pocket 2, the right side of the frame is quite soft. It's worst at the very edge and falls back to sharp about 25% into the frame. The left side of the image does not have this problem.
Attaching a couple of quick screengrabs from a 4K video. As I panned you can see a tree in the distance is very soft when it's on the right side, and when that tree reaches the left side, it's much sharper. No change in pan speed or focus. Same thing is noticeable in photos.

Are you using the wide angle lens?

Maybe it's like 'Tide' - a dirty lens (inside, under the cover, the user cannot clean it).

I also had a sofe/blurry area in the right side of image.
And found my lens had a defect in the right side.

No. Have not even tried that.

Wow! I just checked out this one under a magnifying glass (not nearly as close as your photo), but didn't see anything obvious. I've got a replacement coming tomorrow. I'll take some side-by-side images to share.
