Sprint TP2 Paint Flaking off edges


anyone else noticing that the grey painted edge (right near the screen) of the Sprint TP2 is very delicate and paint flakes off.. you can see it most blatantly on the top left corner but it has completely peeled off along the left and right sides of the screen.. it comes off fairly neatly most of the time so its hard to notice but as you can see that top left corner is not as neat. heres a pic

Am a brute? (i usually take very good care of my stuff but after dealing with so many replacements i stopped babying the TP1 and thought the TP2 could handle the same abuse).. have others noticed this?

Re: Sprint TP2 Paint Flaking off edges

Yeah, I have the same issue and I have never dropped it or mishandled it. Must be a paint defect.

Re: Sprint TP2 Paint Flaking off edges

Yep, I noted this about a month ago. Mine is chipping along the right side, right where the screen ends and the case starts. Theres also a decent sized dent in it....but thats my fault

Re: Sprint TP2 Paint Flaking off edges

Glad the tmobile touch pro 2 dont have that chrome paint crap... I remember the tp1 days that happened.... I thought tmobile got the design right when they left out the chrome.... I knew right away seeing the chrome models that the same problem was gonna happen....

Re: Sprint TP2 Paint Flaking off edges

i have the same problem where the stylus is. its probably caused by my finger rubbing on it when i pull out the stylus but who would have thought it would be so fragile?

Re: Sprint TP2 Paint Flaking off edges

Question - Do any of you keep your phone in your pocket? Just wondering...since anything in pockets can damage a phone...(Keys, change etc). Not saying you do...just wondering.

please quit asking everyone for a manufacturers date in every thread you post in... I feel like every thread i visit now has you in it asking for a date. Even for something retarded like someone bricking their phone due to incompetence.

I know you just got your TP2, but you'll find that it doesn't matter. The only major widespread issue is the stuck pixel problem and that was tackled months ago. And, you will find that recently dated TP2s still have the issue. Enjoy your phone and stop worrying about dates...
