My bad. They said it would be fixed by the 28th or 29th week. No one has confirmed this here yet.

It has NOT been fixed, it is not the "chemicals" it's the way the keyboard works with the little silver ball joining the numbers together plus the materials are way too thin and glued in the middle. It has been happening in yellow ones (they're not as frequent as the black ones, because the yellow ones are not as popular) as well as in the W580.
I have sent my phone twice to SE (I'm on my second keyboard) and if they had figured it out it would not had happened again. I barely use this phone except to play games and receive calls, and the cracks just come out of nowhere (you normally notice them at dark because of the background light). Do not buy this phone until SE admits the problem, and if you did already send it to SE don't wait and say nothing because this will not help the cause. I have spent days researching this problem online and these are my findings.

I'd like to get my hands on 1 for a week and see if the keys snapped I guess it's not possible
I think they will be recalled it all depends how many sell though it's not the most common

I think the bottom line is that SE now seem to be concentrating on flashy looks and lights as opposed to build quality. The first w580i I had suffered from a terrible slider and I changed it straight away. As soon as I was aware of the key issue I monitored mine closely and decided to sell the phone before the inevitable happened....just looking at the way the keypad is designed you can see it was done for looks/budgets rather than durability.
It seems that both Nokia and SE are releasing various phones with dodgy build quality and firmware. I have a Nokia 6300 now which I'm happy with but I understand when these first came out they suffered from a memory card bug. It just seems that manufacturers are releasing different models every week and quality seems to be suffering in the rush to market.
