This is one of the rumors that I loved, a 8.8mm thin metal chassis it looks 8.8 mm thin but I really wanted that from samsung I'm just kinda tired of the plastic but it's not a deal breaker and it doesn't look metal here in this video.
11th is the google/samsung conference that is being held.
I agree with you completely for instance when I hold my moms mytouch 4g it feels like its make from the highest quality materials from the bezel to the battery door. Please samsung make this metal and if the battery door isn't metal I kinda hope its not glossy like the nexus sI can't explain to you how BADLY (BAAAADDDLLYYY) I want a metal chasis on the Prime. BADLY.
It just makes a phone feel so much better. The Nexus S, while a fantastic device, felt like I bought it at Wal Mart. (in a product quality kind of way)
I want to feel like I paid $300 worth for the device (im pretty sure it will be 300 with contract)
Id rather have a plastic phone that holds an awesome signal, then a metal chassis phone that might have signal issues.
Thats not a dig either. Im just totally against using metal in phones where it could have a negative effect on signals. I just don't think companies have figured out how to work around it well enough.
Motorola has great radios and receptionin their smart phones... So, it is doable! Let's hope for the best
now that people have seen this phone is there a answer for this question. metal or [plastic?
P.S. Am I the only one who hates, hates, hates the way the iPhone4 feels? It looks nice enough, but a flat glass back just feels wrong in my hand.
