I think you are right, the angle isn't obtuse enough for the antenna to be hidden, and the sticker area is certainly different, so I think you are on to something.


Another suspicious thing, take a look at the Walkman's W logo. Does anyone notice the bad cropping around the W logo? I can see several thin white area around the W logo.

Yes it might just be the perspective, though here I doubt it.

That phone looked so sexy on the website, but then I was disappointed when I saw live pictures, due to this! I was mislead by pics really.

Usually pics of phones in advertising/marketing materials are taken so as to attenuate some of the not so nice things of phones, usually the thickness. I think went really too far here and posted misleading pics of its product, by hiding/concealing the antenna itself. In France, this might well fall into the illegal category of "publicité mensongère" i.e. lying advertisement/advertising material.

However, there is always a disclaimer saying that reserves the right to affect the looks/features of the phones.

Look closely. The black W300 has no M2 sign (down to left), but the second one has the sign..... Nothing serious, right?

Its not so much as touching the photos up. Many years ago I work at Panasonic in Thatcham (where the phone factory used to be) and when a new phone gets designed it only exists on paper and huge simulators and other flashy computers. Then a company in Japan gets the desigh blueprints and they make life size mockups of the phone in question. (Similar to the fake phones you see in phone shops). However, these ones have a lot more details and are weighted so it looks and feels exactly like the real thing. They also cost a couplke a thousand quid each. Also, from the time of the design and the moulding of a mockup phone to the time that the actual phone hits the production line, can take up to 18 months.

These mockups are then usually used for all the propaganda photos.

Anyway, thats how panasonic used to work.
