Has anyone already tried to exchange exteriors of the T630 and T610? Especially with the black T630 coming, I would love to change the appearence of my T610.

So has anyone tried it already, cause I see many people opening up their T610 and changing the look of the phone. Don't just say it's impossible if you haven't tried it yet.

By the looks of it, they will have slightly different proportions.

So my best guess is that cases will not fit. You'll need T610 case that looks like a T630 case but it needs to be fitted for T610.

The big question is...... is the width and depth of the T630 smaller because of the exterior or the interior. I think there's a big chance that the case has somewhat smaller dimensions, but that the actual phone is exactly the same. Who knows?

It is not possible, I have tried. You can change the front cover. But the battery and antenna cover wont fit because of powerbutton and camera lens

Hahaha, well too bad that only the front will fit, that doesn't look good then. If I had both phones I would try it Vlammetje, but I only have a T610 and I'm not going to buy a T630 cover if it doesn't fit. But now we know we don't have to try.

I thought the black T630 was a hoax? I can't find a single bit of official information about it anywhere.

if t610 and t630 has the same motherboard and all, then try changing the centre piece which holds the front n back cover. that should fix the problem.
