Don't buy Samsung Note 2 yet, hold your horses.

I am not telling you all not to buy it or total boycott. NO.
Just hold on till they address this problem. What if later your note 2 like this.

My Samsung Note GT-N7000 @ 21/7/12 is having 3 hair line crack on the body.
1 one the left, 2 on the right.
Am not the only person having that problem.

I never dropped my phone, no dent marks.

I went to Samsung service center 13/9/12 in Sunway carnival @ groundfloor opposite Giant.
Went to the counter, a Malay guy was there for me.
Showed him my phone, he took it, went behind, showed the technician and came back saying,
"sorry sir, this is LCD crack, warranty doesn't cover it"
The guy never even check serial number, phone I never unlock.


THE LCD IS NOT CRACK.
My LCD OK, no crack,
Phone no drop or dent marks.

Well if you guys from Samsung wanna find me, PM me here or search details using
Warranty registered on 21/7/12
35293505228612X
Register using my name Gurvinder Singh

SO DON'T BUY SAMSUNG NOTE 2 UNTIL THEY ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM . SAMSUNG MALAYSIA SETTLE THIS FIRST LA BEFORE SELLING NOTE 2.


Am not the only person. If I dropped it, its acceptable to void warranty.
Don't tell me I syok sendiri go and crack it.



PTUI !!!
IN XDA also got people complain this problem. LINK

bado666 ~ So the problem is after 2 months that i had my Note i noticed a slight crack around the display of the phone and today i noticed another one.
My phone did not drop or fell from anywhere since i had it
QUOTE
rusty4ever ~ I am one with exactly same problem, yesterday only I have noticed similar crack at corner of housing, I guess sammy used really cheap plastic got this crack within 2 months from purchase.
QUOTE
bado666 ~ Yeah it should but then again....it sucks. So pricey phone and then they use so cheap plastic. Firstly i was dissapointed with the battery cover. I loled when i first removed it.
And now this thin frame cracking.

This is another website iSource, the user sold off the phone because it got this cracks.

Over the past few months my SECOND device developed similar cracks by the headphone jack and the power switch. Quick show of hands … who remembers the iPhone 3G and 3Gs having similar issues with their plastic? Who remembers how Apple dealt with that? My experience was this: You drove your happy ass to the Apple store, they flashed a light into the headphone jack (water check), looked at the phone all around for drop damage and then asked if you had your information backed up already. 10 minutes later, your happy ass was driving back home – new/refurbished iPhone in hand. And that was BEFORE Apple realized they’d screwed the pooch. That was just Apple employees doing the right thing for the customer. Once Apple really knew they had a problem the process was even easier.

So guess what? Samsung has the same problem with the white plastic on the Galaxy Note. Years later and their copied phones are so well copied that they screw up the same damned thing Apple did. But, rather than copy Apple on the customer service side Samsung’s solution is DENY DENY DENY, you broke it, you need to pay to fix it.

QUOTE( antu_biskut PM me 12/10/12 06:51 PM )
white memang macam tu la..i heard from several ppl already report crack on casing..




Update 10/10/12 0940 called the toll free number and talked to them.
Gave the guy this link to let his supervisor see....
And he said will ask supervisor to call me back.

Update 10/10/12 1005 called Sunway Carnival 04-3803433 branch, spoke to the branch manager.
Vivian, she said this is cosmetic and they won't change.
If I insist of changing, she will do test, and send request to KL to change it.
She said got few people having this problem too ~ even she said it.
She said is because I put the phone in my pocket.
I said then the LCD should crack, not the casing. LCD softer.
She said the PLASTIC is softer.

Update 10/10/12 1515 called 1800889999 again, spoke to the earlier guy.
He said he passed my case to Mr Prem. Mr Prem is out / on other call. He will get him to call me back.

Update 11/10/12 1215 03-7711 7000 Prem from Samsung called. He asked for the exact date I went to sc.
He still not yet check this link doh.gif He is saying cannot open other than Samsung website.

Update 11/10/12 1318 04-3803433 Vivian from Sunway called back. I asked how many people having this problem?
She said 3 :-) That means other user got this problem.
I recorded the conversation.
http://db.tt/U7rCXfLO click this to hear it.

Update 12/10/12 Prem never call me.

Update 13/10/12 1pm Emailed Nicole khoo and samsung univ3z.

Update 15/10/13 Karen Au from Samsung called me, ask me send ori pictures to her.
She will handle me as Nicole Khoo is busy. Sent her at night.

Update 16/10/12 Karen email me saying, she send the links n my phone pictures to Korea HQ. Ask me wait.


LYN guys, I give you guys green light to spam this post, share it and comment...

Did you happen to use lotion on your hands especially suntan lotion or insect repellant?

Suntan lotion and insect repellant tend to act as a solvent to cause these cracks in polycarbonate plastics.  Especially on thin areas where metal is insert molded.

I am quite sure it's PC plastic material as it's painted.

No
