S10 build quality?

[Dani]

Hello, I got a S10 for my friend today. It's very nice looking and smaller than I expected.
One problem though, it seems the front part and back part don't stick together quite well (a bit loose) and it feels like you can actually twist it like a Sony ericsson S700. If you know what I mean..

Is it common for S10 or do I need to get an exchange?

Thanks!!

There is a little play in my S10 when I twist the front or back. I think this amounts to no more than 0.5mm of movement. I would not describe the device as feeling loose or sloppy.

I hope this helps

Thanks for the reply. Yes there's a 0.5-1mm of movement when I twist it. Hope it's normal.

The only other advice I could offer is that if you have any doubts take it back to the store and compare it with other S10's.

As I said in my previous post mine is not loose and rattly; it just moves when you twist it.

Whatever happens I am sure your friend will enjoy the device.

Happy New Year!!!

Same with mine. A very small amount of 'twist' but definitely not loose or rattly.

Thank you everyone. Happy new year!

on mine - slight horizontal twist as expected to click the screen, but not loose and no rattle.
