DUST, the N7650's worst enemy...

[C//LiMBa]

And I'm affraid it'll be the same shit with the 6600...
Who's with my opinion?

[Angel Of Death]

Bloody good point, i had to get dust removed from my screen at the service centre 4 times in less than a year! I am cleaning my 3650 screen all the time, lets hope the 6600 has a decent seal on it.

[wanja]

you must find a soft cover it is about 5$ and put your 7650 in it ...problem solved.in my country we have no service to clean my 7650 or change something on your phone like firmware ect :-?

[tzeonn]

well, i used to own a 7650, i alwaz store it in a cloth bag, to prevent scratches, and there weren't much dust in the fone.

I use an ultra thin plastic cover with a zipper and it works like a beauty.

Not long lasting at all...but its thin and it works!

If it tears or anything....i can always replace...cuz tis so damn cheap.

[aussie]

yeah same here.. it's been slightly more than a year since i've had my 7650 n i've sent it in for dust romal about 4 times. M gonna wait for the reviews to come out n the 1st wave of 6600 users to have their say then i'll decide abt whether i wanna buy it or nt..
I remember posting something about dust on my cell a long time ago on this forum n some1 wildy suggested me to use a vacumn cleaner... lol.
Cheers

You are sooo right!

The last thing i would ever do is putting my 6600 in a faggy bag!

(no offense)

If u want to know what my previous 7650 and i have been going trough , here's a little list:

- I usually fell asleep with it, and woke up with a 7650 stuck to my head!
- Got hit by a car when i sat on the back of a scooter
- Took a dive with it
- Tossed it in the air for 10 mins , and dropped it at last trow!
- Went to wintersport with it (the usual crashing and falling)
- Dropped it from an attraction while trying to make a killer vid.
- A little kid once chewed on it
- fell from my Girl's balcony
- Sat on it (823746528357 times)
- Got buried when helping my neighbour in his backyard!
- Pulled C-Stick rubber off when i was tired of losing grip when i used it while eating greasy stuff (Even worse, a little white stick appears and start to hurt your finger after a while!)

I had three 7650s so far and it only costs my 25Euro+insurance costs per new one.
Now i'm getting a 6600, it will be released 19th November here, same day as i'm recieving my package with my 6600 included!

I have my 6600 now about a week and didn´t care about keeping it from dust (in my job there is allways dust) and the display is clean as new!

Think the cover of 6600 is much better than 7650!

[tzeonn]

a bag is gay, but i rather be gay den scratch my fone and make it covered in dust. lol.

[AlexTheStampede]

my 3650 don't need a bag or other...i almost love it like a baby!sometimes i take off the cover and wash it,then i gently clean the screen with a a piece of fabric and finally i use a bit of alchool on the contacts(without the battery)

I wud do da same...wash n clean every now n then but guess wot?
When I had to take my N650 to NSC for repairs(under warranty), they blamed it on WATER LOGGING due to all da cleaning I was doin.

So be careful wid all da liquid around ur 3650! :p

[YesKia]

To begin wid da N3650 is kinda bulky n if u put it in a bag, dats gay!

Maybe u guys can give Da ultra thin plastic sheet I'm usin a $hot.

Its not a cover, just a thin lamination over ur N3650. Almost un-noticeable but still does da job!

lol at ur signature... we are 2 big woodchuckers chucking wood here, lmfao.

I use a similar plastic pouch (temporary sealing) for my 7650, as YesKia said. It works well for me.

Its da best machtoners. My 1st one lasted for 3 months, which is not bad at all since they cost peanuts.

Da other day I got myself a new 1, plus 2 more spare....just in-case :p

Bought a 6600 yesterday. This morning I left it on a sofa (must have been dusty) next thing I know I've got some dust under the screen of my 6600... This is not a good start! I realized it's not wise to lay this phone on any dusty surface...

I'm more concerned with the camera lens cover on the rear of the phone geting a nasty scratch and distorting the images I take with it.

I think a plastic see through case or this laminate stuff sounds a good idea.

And da cam lens is 1st to be affected since its @da back side.

It is replaceable but at a cost and has to be done @NSC.

Im usin da plastic lamination mainly for dis purpose - to protect da lens but it keeps da dust out just da same!

ok, not to many positiv reactions :s this really scares me, you pay 515EUR for a nice mobile and then there's dust en scratches on the lens... That aint so nice... And I hate to put a protection bag around any mobile.... DAMN, now i dont know wich mobile to choose... i want one with extendable memory, camera, 65k+ screen and if it's possible symbian operating system.... wich one would you advice to me?

You'll never find a phone that won't scratch - its practically impossible! You'll just have to be extremely careful where you put it i.e. don't put it in the same pocket as your keys etc.

[C//LiMBa]

i can handle the scratches, but not the dust :) unless it aint so hard to open up a N6600 and remove the dust...

just saw it lying in the store, she's a beauty :)
