thought i'd start a thread for people to post any build quality problems they have noticed.
i have 2 problems - i hope i'm just really unlucky.
the silver paint on my right button under the screen has worn off completely and the plastic which covers the camera lens on the back is cracked.
the first point about the button i will put down to a manufacturing fault as the left key is still perfect wih the same use. However, the plastic covering the lens i can see is extremely thin now i can use the crack to guage its thickness - probably worth making sure you dont put any force on it...
oh, and i've had my x1 little over 3 days...

Someone else on another thread commented on Silver paint coming off. I have a Black X1, and have no build quality issues... so far

Yeah that was me winging about my lack of silver paint, but i thought we could have a thread for generic build issues. Mods feel free to lock the previous thread.

I'm also not happy with the large gap between the top and bottom halves of the phone i.e. the screen half and the keyboard half, when they re closed, especially at the end where the hardbuttons are. Otherwise the phone feels nice and solid.

Mine is Vodafone, I've exchanged two handsets due to its fault (first one) and build qulity (2nd one). But the third one what i'm using now has the build qulity issues as well, the right top of the metal body is worn off, and some scartches on the left side. So I really doubt the qulity of the device which order through telephone-sales. Unfortunately, I cann't swap it once more because it's over 14 days. Anyway, I love it.

I'm going to have to hold on to mine for a little while longer - o2 have no stock - probably until the 1st of december. They sent me an email to contact returns again on monday. I notice they have just got the touch pro in stock - i bet they try to convince me to get that...

Mine is fine! No problems at all, build quality is great and the paint is still on.
One little annoying thing I have found though is that the screen is lowerd and dirt gets traped in the corners and is extremely hard to get it out.
