Re: Ugly Sprint version. Can anything be done?

I would also prefer the GSM edition. I don't like the Sprint flavor as much.

1. Diamond back
2. Steel shell
3. Straight edges
4. Curved, but sharp corners
5. More professional/subtle.

Re: Ugly Sprint version. Can anything be done?

if you dont like the back, i'd assume you could get some vinyl dye, its like spray paint, but it seeps into the surface.

The Sprint TP is nice looking and it's very comfortable to hold. I don't think it's ugly at all. :P I like it more than my friend's Vodafone TP.

Re: Ugly Sprint version. Can anything be done?

I would prefer the diamond back, but this has got to be the coolest looking phone I have ever seen. Way to go Sprint, I say!

doesn't steel shells degrade signal quality, isn't that why iphone 3g nixed the the metal backing it had from the original iphone and went with plastic instead... i could be wrong.. but i remember reading that somewhere...

Re: Ugly Sprint version. Can anything be done?

I think there's nothing wrong with the Sprint version of TP. It was designed for comfort and simple style. Besides, I'm mostly looking at the front of the device more then the back

Re: Ugly Sprint version. Can anything be done?

I Was one of the people that was very dissapointed with the sprint look but i guess that its a matter of getting use to it. I wonder tho if you can buy the original back piece and fit on the sprint version?? That be good cuz everybody will be able to have it the way they like....

Re: Ugly Sprint version. Can anything be done?

I see no reason why they don't sell these phones in different styles or at the very least battery doors in different styles considering how many ppls would be interested and taste seem to vary... they could at least have a limited release just to see how well it goes..


This is to show you the already many variations in the diamond and pro that I was able to find the back off. You would think some body would cash in since all these different designs already exist... Oh btw, the last two are the same phone, but its changes color (green to purple or whatever color that is) in certain light.

also notice the touch pros are the ones with the flash, and the sprint versions of the diamond and pro have 3.2 mp written on them when some of the others have 3.1.
