I've had a silver and black X1s. The black one seems more sturdy - the silver one had a lose back cover (plastic covering lower half on the rear of the device). The keyboard keys on the black X1 also have better feedback then the silver unit I had. Otherwise no other problems with the finish or paint work.

I have silver one. No problems at all. Heavy usage all day long for 1 month. Perfect build quality.

i think i am just unlucky - but i do expect to see alot of people cracking the plastic covering the rear camera because it really is very thin! we'll see... |

guess what - i have the same crack! Obviously. Definately worth having a look
oh, o2 kindly confermed that i will be able to arrange a swap once the x1 is back in stock. unfortunately this wont be until next week.

Mine seems to be OK.  I like the quality, all metal and rubber parts gives real Sony Style. |

Hi guys,
New member here. Have been reading about that crack thing and have started to get worried. Was thinking of getting the X1 as I love it but now I am not sure  . Maybe the problem is just with prototypes? Hope so... |

Most of us do not have prototypes, it's the real thing we use now. |

Has anyone noticed some white shadow on the upper right corner when the screen is totally black? Its very apparent on camera mode, while the lens is covered to get a full black picture. Anyone pls. I want to get convinced that this is not really an issue but maybe due to its high density resolution. |

Please update us if same thing exists on your new unit. I hope they will replace mine if necessary after a week or two.

one more thing. The left side of the sliding screen unit seems too SHARP. the plastic below the metallic cover is deep resulting to an exposed metallic edges. The otherside seems so perfect. I have the silver one. I left already the place where i purchase it and i might be back there after a week or two. |
