yellow, 10 Oct 2012this is a real company that cares about consumers and quali... moreWrong. It means they messed up big time and did not take the time to notice it and now they are suffering semi trying to fix it. Cheap? I don't see Samsung phones coming out the box with some fresh brand new scratches.

        That's what happens when you use aluminium foil for something like this...I'm an IPhone user since day one, and aside the fact this one is "cute", i'm not planning to burn my money on it.I'm stiking with my 4S until Xiaomi MI2 release.

              this is a real company that cares about consumers and quality, they are cutting their own profits to make higher quality products!! look at samsung releasing plastic after plastic even though the melt in your pocket!!

                "...chips of the iPhone 5 are due to the special aluminum Apple has decided to use for the smartphone..."

                Translated for non-fanbois: 'special' = soft alloy = quicker / cheaper to machine = not fit for intended purpose (daily handling).
