Anybody want to post some pics of the crack? Although i'm not a w850 user but i'm interested in what the crack looks like.

Good for you Jack77777
The thing is that it is realy barely visible, but once discovered, it gets very irritating.
For all those of you wishing to see the notorious gruesome crack, I enclose two photos made in the macro mode with a 5 MP camera.
The first one shows that the crack itself is really thin, but it gets a lot nastier when the navigation area is pressed hard. Luckily, there's no need to press it that hard during normal use and I hope that it won't spread.

I've got no crack in mine...yet...how much do you think the spare part would cost if it wasn't covered under warranty?

So much for the hope that the issue affects only the white W850i version.
Misery loves company.
@ Tiny I suggest you stop worrying before the crack appears. Hopefully, your phone will be spared.
For the pictures of the crack check out my updated post on the previous page.

the crack is not really noticeable unless you press the down directional button. heck i won't know mine until i stumble upon this post. i think the 4 directional pads would eventually crack due to wear and tear..or it's just that the plastic used can't handle such abuse (i like pressing down a lot)

@ johny_dmonic
I totally agree with you. I did notice something between the play button and the down navigation button before, though. Honestly I thought it to be something like dust that I believed to have wiped away. But, alas, it is not...
Who knows when I would have discovered the truth if it wasn't for this thread.
