But now you say you would love to have e7 keyboard. Doesn't it mean that you feel some kind of hazards with the z hinge?

Its the best ke... moreMate you might be lucky who aint facing any sort of problem with the hinge , but there are many who either have got it fixed from the htc service centre and few still waiting for the replacement/ or for the repair work which needs to be done due to bad/low quality hinge . i dont have this phone , but than couple of my friends have got major issues with it and 1 of them have got it replaced and the other friend is still waiting for the phone to come back from the service centre . they fear opening the qwerty bcoz it might go kaput again so they trying to use onboard touch screen keyboard . E7 has the best phisical qwerty and htc should learn from nokia how to make a touchphone with physical qwerty !!

                  feko, 15 Apr 2011is the z hinge mechanism a real problem?? for me that is not a real problem. you can use touch screen keyboard to avoid the hinge problem. i bought this phone on new year eve of 2011 and never use that slide-out keyboard until now.

                      Doing a Google search, it appears that there are sites that support the fact that the Desire Z has gorilla glass. One site did a scratch test.

                      I personally won't know gorilla glass from some other substance if it were staring me in the face (which it is), so I cannot personally verify it. I am also not willing to risk trying to scratch my screen to answer your question. :)

                          This is a pretty nice phone. Easy to use qwerty keypad which folds under so it doesn't get in the way of the touchscreen. Android easy as ever to run. This is pretty much a personal taste phone. If your looking for the HTC touchscreen experience with buttons then this is the choice for you.

But not everyone see the loose hinge as any problem at all, it is very easy to open the keyboard so some actually see the loose hinge as something good. It is better to have a too loose hinge than a too hard hinge, and the hinge is loose for open and closing the keyboard but it is not loose so it would feel as if it would break.
                            I can live with the bad loose hinge, but I have real problems with the fact that I can not use any office editing program other than the limited version of quickoffice that come with the phone, because HTC still have not fixed the fatal problem with åäö always is ÅÄÖ and closing and opening the keyboard again only "fix" this when using the limited version of quickoffice that come with the phone, but it does not fix the problem when I use any other, better, office-editing software from the Market, and in those program not even ? or ! is working when I use the keyboard.

                                      feko, 15 Apr 2011is the z hinge mechanism a real problem?? not really a problem, thou if you did get the g2 version (in america under t mobile) it would be since it tended to have loose connections and not so flush when closed or opened, the desire z seems to have fixed this, seen quite a few of them but none seem to have had the problem of the older g2s
