Who told you W800 is made of metal? Its the same crappy plastic SE use for all their phone.


......just like most manufactures use plastic these days......May differ in high end phones though...

I have nothing against plastic. Its just that I used a N72 yesterday, and it gave a very very durable feel indeed. Side by side comparison clearly showed W800 to be quite fragile.

correct, the w800 and k750 were a bit squeaky, creaky. The w810 felt better and the w900 was a really well built phone. The k800i has a great finish too.

k750 and w800 ARE PLASTIC!

Is the K610 as durable as the w800 then?

The k610 review said "the phone is made all in plastic"
So i thought that the w800 (feels like metal) where made of metal frame

They're just plastic coated with metal-like texture. That's very common nowadays. I think using real metal on the phone's casing will make the phones a bit expensive and the signal reception a bit weaker. Also, usually tough metals are heavy. Aluminum is light but it's only almost as tough as plastic.

Have you ever held a W800? It feels nothing like metallic.
