Re: sprint apache

Yea I noticed the case on mine is really poorly made, I mean it's horrible quality and nothing CLOSE to what my apache had that they replaced. I still haven't sent back the one they replaced, so I'm not sure if I will complain about the quality of the phone they sent, seeing as it's in worse cosmetic condition then my old one. The back/sides are fine, as is the screen and digitizer, its the front face thats horrible, it looks like it got to close to a heat source or something. The finish is not smooth, it's like a bad spray paint with a texture to it, not smooth. The lines that are around the screen, hard to explain..but they should be different levels, in 3 places they aren't, it's like it melted down to the same level. Horrible quality control on this one. Oh and the plastic cutouts for the LEDs aren't even correctly formed. Hardware wise, it's as good as new, it's just cosmetic, and aside from the fact that it's horrible quality, it doesn't bother me much, if I didn't know what it SHOULD look like, I probably wouldn't have noticed.

Then again, they sent it out for free, without TEP, and it works 100%, so I probably shouldn't / won't complain about it until something more substantial happens to it, and they even let me activate TEP on this one, so no matter what I can get a new one now.
