How could you bring yourself to do this?

That's the one thing I have said to everyone that I really wouldn't want to drop this phone. But then I'd rather not drop any smart phone :p

So much for one piece construction. How did that speaker grille pop off so easily, I thought it was machined in one block of ally?

I cant get over those speaker grilles just being glued on.
Hate to say it but I'm now having second thoughts.

Yeh strange to think that's all they could come up with. Probably the weakest part of the chassis ...

It's an easy fix though lmao

I don't think they'd machine the grills also mate,

Also to be fair it was dropped, but like the iphone smashing when it hits the floor. You'd probably find that 9/10 times that grill won't break

The tag line though is one piece body, it's at least 3. Plus, all the photos of the body show it as all in one.
I must admit though, I did wonder how it could be possible to machine it like that.

Dont let a small thing like that put you off. None of these smartphones like to be dropped unfortunately but your missing out on one hell of a phone if that puts you off.

I don't think it'll put me off, when I finally get one in my hands. I'm going in on wed to upgrade at 3, I'm just a bit underwhelmed with how it's put together, considering all the glowing reports about build quality. It just seems low brow glueing em on.

When I saw the close up I thought it looked like it also had small pillars that probably fix it as well.

I would really struggle to believe its literally just glued on mate.

When you get one feel around the speaker areas, see if it feels poorly fixed and loose if not if really not worry
