Hi guys. Just a very important headsup for everyone.
I've had my K850i for less than a week and I already have a small scratch on it. Where did it come from? I have no idea! But it's there and it's unsightly. You can only see it from a very particular angle, but it's annoying to know it's there.
So I urge everyone to take very good care of their K850s. Get a screen protector on it or something! Anything!

you cant really expect the glass to be fully scratch proof. I mean, its glass, glass scratches! I guess its only scratch proof to a certan extent....
@op

Probably when they realized that the material they chose for the screen isn't very resistant after all. To avoid law suits.

If i did understand plankgatan right, he just told us that phones with real mineral glass are very rare and that a IPOD sock is perfect with the k850i and is a good protection against scratches, and not that his phone is perfect |

Well, scratch proof and scratch resistent are two different things. The former mean its not possible to scratch and the latter means its possible, but hard scratch (compared to "normal" screens). |

OK. There is scratch proof and scratch resistant.
I never said it was scratch proof, but I did say resistant.
I have carried the phone in my right suit trouser pocket. That's all that ever goes in there is the phone and maybe some random lint. So air and lint is all it's come across, so I am stumped as to how it's happened.
Like I say, it's only VERY light. It took me a good 3 minutes to find it to take a picture of it.
The flash from the camera makes it look WAY worse than it is.

Also, it's amazing how macro mode on my camera (panasonic FX-01) picks up so much dust on the phone!
I gave it a polish with one of those anti-static cloths before I took those pics! mad! |

Hi all,
The thing is for plankgatan this phone was the best phone ever and perfect from when it was announced a little thing like facts are never going to get in the way of an opinion formed before he even had it.
Every where he goes all he can say is just how great his phone is bugs and problems are just Monody phones and to be expected.
As for this scratch resistant Glass which was something that SE made out as a feature when announced now seems to of disappeared from he web site is indeed very strange but to be honest nothing SE does any longer surprises me in this respect. They seem only to happy to announce things when announcing a device that somehow mysteriously disappear by the time of launch. VOIP on the P1 anyone?
