Xperia Go gets Crack and scratch on its screen

[Jagrat_Joshi]

Hi Sony Support

Greetings for the day.

I had seen the promos and advertisement of Sony xperia go, I specially want to quote "The first number refers to protection against solid objects; the second refers to protection against liquids"(as mentioned on Sony India website against Sony Xperia Go), which made my decision to purchase xperia go one month ago(from Paragon Udaipur,  Inv. No: 12/11014).

Unfortunately my handset dropped from study table (Height 2.5 feet), and phone glass cracked. I had contacted the Sony regional customer care, they told me it would not cover under warrenty. Product does not even fulfil its feature SHATTER PROOF SCREEN & SCRACH RESISTENT.It am feeling being cheated.

I would request Sony to please look into this matter and provide me screen replacement.

Attached is snapshot of phone screen for your reference.

Regards

No man it is not shatter and not unbreackable there is no word in sony white paper says that it is shatter proof and unbreakable but it is water resistance and scratch resistance more than any other phone,yesterday a motorcycle hit me when I was listening to music and the phone slide on the road 2m and no scratch at all that makes me love the xperia go more and more and the SAMSUNG crap in these videos doesnt have the specification of xperia go interms of hardware and its the same price.no sony didnt fool you and next time read carefully because i was like you,i beleive that the xperia go has the power of xperia active,but theni asked and they tell me the xperia active is the strongest phone in the world and the go mix the good and hardware and  ruggedness in one device.

Thank you for reply now i have know that xperia go is somthing weaker than all sports like or ip 67 like phones but your kind information, xperia go is most expensive than all of them.And sony is advertizing so highly that "made to resistant" "durable" or anything on youtube and phone is so weaker than they are showing off.I was already knew that sony have all by pass of my words.I have no threw on wall or any kind of cruel behaviour this is so general, every phone drops even one time but no phone i have cracked its screen.I think it is weakest ip67 phone ever i have used before. see this links that sony showing off too mauch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sx5n6gPeYs, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swNtsX3jkWk what is it mean ?.I am feeling so insulted

IP67 refers ONLY to how protected the phone is against water and dust/particles getting into the phone. NOTHING else. It has NOTHING to do with how durable the phone is. It could be made of porcelain and still be IP67 rated.

The reality is that you were just unlucky. I've dropped the Go several times with no damage. But like all phones with hardened screens (including Galaxy Xcover and Defy), it will break under the right conditions. All three phones scratch easily. The scratch test you link to is stupid. Keys are made of soft metal and even regular glass can withstand that. Sand on other hand can scratch any phone on the market.

U better know what is IP certification is,please dont talk about anything u dont know about this make u look like a fool (no offense),and no the xperia go is the cheapest rugged phone in the market name one device that has the same specification as the xperia go and I will buy it right know (dont throw words just read the white paper of it and compare it to another one proccessors...)and it is the strongest phone in the rugged category after the xperia active,please google everything u dont before u talk,I just slide my xperia go yesterday 2 meter on the road and no scratches at all..

[Jagrat_Joshi · Accepted solution]

Ok You already know that when samsung xcover launched at 2011 various brands launched their equavlant phone like defy plus or xperia active etc they have almost same specification at that time.

This time is a time when consumer need a high processor or high ram and compition also goes for high then what need to say about specification.At 2013 the comption will between quad core, hexa core or somthing for 2.5ghz processors

Please See the links and think again about the my sony accident http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=We0PBgmsSR4 or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F92CvRflk18 or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kzLoIcEgRc or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OTyXQ4i8SA. So what did you think please reply about my next problem that is "could my phone be like purchase time after repair e.g. water resistant, Dust resistant or it will spoil during repair and Who would be responsible for any problem after repairing phone???"

Hi look I HAVE seen those vidoes before and no the xperia active was before smasung xcover (see gsm arena) and it is stronger than defy plus see this is new one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPQni152vec 

secondly:the xperia go is the first and only phone  with dual core proccessor with xperia acro s in the rugged phone range in the market now.

thirdly:I invite you to see this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3v5lN4U0bM

Look let me tell you the simple equation about warranty,everything the company tell you literally is under the warranty the company didnt tell you shater or shock proof even the xperia active the company didnt say anything about shock and shatter proof they said that has some strength however the people try to test them but not the company who test them on you and tell u shatter proof or anything.ANd ur beloved samsung they didnt mention anything about shatter proof,this an accident man u r responsible of accidents because SONY didnt tell you that and if it did tell me where so we can sue the company tell me where in its website and I will sue her right now for its lying,please be realistic next time....

If u take it to a SONY repaire center it will be like purchase time  just take it to a sony repaire center and they will be responsible if it will spoil but there is a cost u will pay for repairing it..
