@Nitro_Fan: At the end of the day if you're unhappy about the production quality of your favourite SE phone the best thing you can do is to avoid buying their future releases. Current phones are exposed to a lot of abuse and to expect an immaculate handset aftre one year of "wear and tear" is a bit too much.
Hi Brix25,
My phone gets a lot of use true, but it is kept in a high quality case so I do find it a bit much when it starts to fall apart! after such a short period of time and I feel obliged to let the manufacturer know when I am unhappy if that means I end up buying a better product from a different manufacturer so be it

If some of us as consumers want to express our dissatisfaction with a product we buy, we can do so in any way we wish, and that includes directly addressing the company in question.
As a S African I believe our buying public, in particular, is generally speaking far too complacent and passive for their own good...
I'm not losing sleep over my phone's build quality but it is IMHO one of the few flaws of this great phone. I would rather petition SE ( even in vain ) than subject myself to a different smartphone / OS etc .

@aqualung: If you want to express your dissatisfaction with a particular product the best thing you can do is too choose with your wallet, also tell you friends and family about the poor quality of said product.
Loyalty to a particular manufacturer should never give way to common sense.
With all that said I still don't believe that SE makes phones with poor finishing or that aren't durable.

I have to disagree on the wallet being the best thing to do, sure any business will eventualy take notice of falling sales but most businesses would rather know what their customers think long before they lose them I listen hard to what my customers tell me that way they stay as MY customers, it takes a heck of a lot longer to get and keep a customer than to does to lose them! I say let the manufacturers know whats wrong business people will listen.

i think se's build quality as in the material used in their phones is going from bad to worse...
the k750i had soft keys made of horrible cheap plastic...the lens cover of the w800i got loose in no time...the battery cover of the w810i was loose from day 1...the m600i has a wafer thin battery cover & buttons made of the cheapest plastic...the k800i has had a loose lens cover from day 1...the worst of the lot is the k610i which has cheap material written all over it & se has shipped it without a handsfree...even the p990i it seems has keypad buttons made of rubber...for the joysticks in se phones, the lesser said the better...
se phones used to have such wonderful build quality...it felt so good to hold the t610/k700i/p910i especially the s700i...the s700i was a super phone in all aspects of build quality & se has lived upto those standards even in the w900i but i'm afraid i can't say so for any of se's new phones...
i mean i would rather pay more & get a more sturdy phone made of better firmer material, don't matter if it is metal or plastic or alloy.
is it just me or there are other esatorians who believe so too???

My K800i is the best built and most solid feeling phone that i have owned. It is less creakie than the t610 and doesnt scratch as easy. I have no problem with my lens cover, it seems tight and opens and closes well enough.

Yes, Sony Ericsson continue to build phones with cheap shitty enclosures.
