Guys,

have you noticed this strange thing or is it only on my N95. I am not using the additional carrying pouch, i slide my N95 inside my jeans and trousers. But i see all the edges of the N95 is loosing its silver paint and a white plastic beneath is visible...
Are you facing similar build issues or its only mine....pls comment...can i give back and claim a new facia??

BTW i have purchased this set from the Nokia priority dealer in India...

Well NJ,

i used to have my N80, for similar wear and tear, the paint never used to ward off....so thats why i was curious if the same is happening to everyone else....

My N95 was branded to vodafone with an ugly vodafone logo on the face cover. I brought a replacement from blueunplugged dotcom and changed it. By the way the front cover is metal on my phone, also brought the sand colored covers

If not then I think you're the only person in the world with a metal N95

HI,😊
I was told about this when I bought mine from the Vodafone shop so I have now bought one of those crystal clear hard cases off a well known auction site. I know what you are all thinking (YUK!!!) but they are not as bad as they sound. You get two pieces one for the back and another for the front so you don't need to use the rear one, just the protection for the front if you are worried about the silver rubbing off, plus it is brilliant for protecting the screen. Buy one you won't be disappointed, mine was only 99p :icon14: plus delivery.

I just slide mine inside the little pouch that came with an external 2.5" drive caddy!
Does the job protecting it from my pockets.
