Transparent part below shows like bubbles between

Hi,

I just got my Xperia U a week ago and never noticed it, but when I bought a case and it is held infront of a dark color, you see in the lower part (where the leds are lit up) like a kind of bubble.

It is like if you take two pieces of glass and a drop of water between them and that is the effect you have. I made some picture and circled them.

As I bought the phone at Amazon, they were so kind to send me a replacement, but that one also has it.

can anybody confirm me if they have it or if this is a manufactury fault? I don´t believe it will influid the funcionality of the phone, but still if it shouldn´t be there,I rather don´t have it.

I have a protection case, first I thought it might have cause by the pressure, but as the new one arrived yesterday I can leave that aside.

Thank you very much for any response

Yes, the second phone they send me (Amazon did) ALSO has the bubbles.

So it seems to be a commen problem then?

The second one also has less (maybe 10-20% less) of this. I suppose it isn´t important then, as I see more people have it and nobody does anything about it (neither Sony ha ha ha).

Still I wonder how it is possible this passes the QA check then?

It is like buying a car with scratches on it.

Would love to hear from somebody of SOny on this?

I do can ask Amazon to send me another Phone, until I have one without it. Should I do that?

this is not a problem at all

Its just that the gum is wearing out.

Every Xperia U has that problem

just looks weird but I can live with that

It isn´t really bothering me, now I know there are more people having this problem. And reading it here, nobody cares about it as it doesn´t affect the use of the phone.

I do will contact the seller. Althought I guess that AMAZON wonñt care about it and will send me a new one. And maybe that one will be alright.

The problem for me is that the nearest SONY Center is about 200 km from my place.

What I wonder is that why SONY doesn´t solve it, if more people have this problem.

Are you saying that the plastic stuff can be taken out and just plugged a new on in it?

Kind Regards

Update 21/04/2013

Just got a new mail from Amazon. They said they will stop selling the product until they removed the fault of it. And then they will send me a new phone.

Great service I must say!

In the meanwhile I just use the phone, as I love it 🙂
