No idea about Hazel.. But here are my views abt W995:
I bought it in March 2010. Loved its built design & look. Nice slider (a little wobble @bottom left which is hardly noticeable.) Excellent & quality music through its stereo speakers & handsfree. Stable & fast UI with no lag at all. Display is great even under direct sunlight. Camera is Okey.. Not bad at all.
But.................. after one month usage, it started giving me problems with the down-volume key. Temporarily it gave no response. And one week later, i faced a bizarre prob. Whenever i did press the keys 9,6 & 3, the keypad light flashed. And... after a few days later the keys 9 & 3 totally stopped working..
:(
I sent it back to repair as it was under 12months warranty. LIved with my K850i and after one month, the company asked me to return them the box with all accessories.. And they would give me new pin-pack handset..
But i refused..AS i dont want to get another W995 which could give me the similar probs.. So now I'm waiting now for a White Aino
but they currenty have only "Black one" in stock..
I still miss my W995 but those shitty probs..........
So i'll advise you not to buy a W995.

That's not a good reason to vote against W995 as you're the only one I've heard of with that bizarre problem and you should've accepted the W995 replacement if you love it as the chances of a similar problem cropping up would be miniscule to none. An ill-fated Hazel might have the same/equivalent problem as would any other phone in the market. Perhaps it would be more fitting if you highlighted the more known or well documented weaknesses of the W995 such as scrolling through videos that's painfuly slow or lack of Walkman 4.0 and WQVGA video recording as advertised

@mode
I'm one of those guys who never did complain about any fault in a
device. Even my K850i gave me many hardware issues, but i never posted those online... Still satisfied with it... But all those hardware faults started to appear after 1 and half year usage...
But this one (W995).........
And i heard abt a similar prob (non-working volume keys on W995) on some mobile forum..
Thats why........
Other than that i realllllly like it

Well actually i dont use my cell phone device for watching videos... So i don't put alot of videos and scrolling through a few videos is still slow, but i can live with this minor bug...
Also i never use my cell phone for recording videos........ For that purpose i've HD recording devices

Probably better on the W995 - you get what you pay for though I'm sure the Hazel is very good for it's class (like the Elm).

I've never used Hazel, but i had W995 in 5-6 months. One of my fav phones. It has a WOW factor, Great design & build quality. Never had any problem with it. With modding can you get even better sound quality & a better camera
I got it after my K850i & believe me, i had to send K850i to service senter 7 times in one year. Had really bad experience, but with W995, never had any problem...
