Great attention to this phone! After 2 months of normal use, the silver color on the case is going... And you will not solve anything if you use the service as solution, will say: because of normal wear take paint! SonyEricsson not want to admit that it was a manufacturing defect ........... And u can do nothing to change the phone or to get the money back!
