I had a look at a sample unit in CPW today (and an Orange shop)and noticed that the part of the phone which is supposed to be white/off white was very dirty and grubby looking - it had gone a horrible brown colour! I know it's only a sample unit, but was just wondering if the actual phone has this problem too? If it does then I'm definitely going for a K750i!

well if you have grubby hands and don't clean it then it probably would turn yellowish!

I know you are joking, but I was hoping for some sensible answers too...

I do find it hard to believe they would sell something that would discolour like that, but I'm also surprised they have a dummy unit for people to look at that does go a horrible colour… it’s bound to put some people off buying it!

Hi

I've got my W800i last week from Virgin mobile with free bluetooth, it's unbranded and simfree .

after 1 week of playing with it , I'll say that there's not much difference from K750i as I've also got the k750i from vodafone which I flashed with davinci's R1L002. I decided to keep the K750i and give the w800i to the wife...lol ( I didn't like the color )

When I first got the phone i did notice some dirt marks on the back. But they are really easy to clean. Since then I havn't seen any more dirt.
