How many phones have a weird protrusion coming out of the side?

Watched a small vid review of this on coolsmartphone.com, looks ok but the build quality is poor, the keypad is extremely loose.

Although the idea is good, my daughter's N91 dummy phone is made better than this...

Did you know if you throw it to the ground it doesnt bounce back!
