I think their Techs of screen,camera and nand are on top of the world,
especially some amazing screen performance on sharp device and camera made by sony.though it's falling down for a long time

LOL!
you know nothing about Japaneses companies.
you mentioned "SHARP", SHARP is virtually bankrupted and begging Chinese to bailout , losing money year by year from their LCD business.
Read this "Sony, Sharp Losing $11 Billion Leaves Investors Let Down" http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-0...llion-yen.html
SONY is not much better, every quarter lose money another record high, only their "Made in China" products give some life for them
Read this http://www.extremetech.com/gaming/12...sibly-go-wrong.
SONY and SHARP are two huge losers.- bad quality and bad designing ...
Japaneses never understands High Tech things , they built good Walker-Man that was 20 years ago ...., take look new SONY TV what a mess - bad quality and bad designing...
Also, SONY Li-on battery was always burning ....

You kinda wrong, one of the main reason japanese facing troubles in lcd/phone segment is Samsung and LG, not cause of China or bad quality. Samsung just do best phones, best displays, best tv's.

Back in years S. Korean production used to be like only cheap copies (Current China state) and japanese was the best. For now, Japan production was overtaken by S.Korea and thats it.
However analytic companies says China will beat both Japan and Korea approximately in 30 years.
So, looks like my grandchilds will say "Dad, only losers buy Samsung, i want YongYuanShaBi phone!"

you didn't get my point dude,i mean not abt the whole device,but only their techs in displays and sony cameras
you may try the sh-02e if possible,i think the igzo screen is the best i've ever used,though the shape looks ugly indeed

device made by samsung is really awesome,though i don't like its SAP screen
lg needs a lot to do in system optimization despite its high screen performance and disposition,and so is pantech.
Chinese industry needs far more to learn,maybe meizu and xiaomi will do.

Cracked

Was not dropped not sure what happened

Can you buy replacement back glass for these phones? I just got one and wasn't aware of these issues at all.

P.S. is the back glass supposed to be completely flush with the bezel, because mine is literally just a hair over it. Like you can feel it if you run your hand from the plastic over the glass.

I mean...this all makes sense. Yes...it sucks there is no Gorilla Glass on the back but no one should be surprised that the glass would do this under extreme temperature changes. You can pretty much do that with any glass. Why do you think they say its not a good idea to use hot water to defrost a frozen windshield on a car?

Your phone is an expensive investment...be more cautious about where you put it and how you handle it or throw an Otterbox on it.

I'm going to assume completely flush. I bought mine last Saturday, maybe a new "batch"? But my back-glass is completely flush and doesnt stick up at all. I literally just checked.

I was extremely cautious with mine and there was no "extreme temperature change". It was in my house (71 degrees) while charging on a wooden end table. It cracked while placing it down gently. I have since replaced it for new one and have had the bumper that Telus sells since day one. I have an otterbox on order and will put it on when it gets here. What's the point of making a phone so nice looking and skinny if you have to cover it up with an otterbox? It should be more durable than that, and I'm not talking about being able to survive drops, I'm talking about placing it on a table while charging.

It's like putting one of those stupid bra's on your car.

Seems like the LG Optimus G is vulnerable with the sudden temperature change although it was made by Gorilla Glass.

From hot to cold, the glass cracked. Sad story!

Not so convinced that this was due to temperature change.
