Let me preface this post by first saying that I love everything about my new 950 XL. Could the build quality or premium feel have been a little better? Yes. But, I understand the reasons why the phone was constructed the way it was.
However, because of this, some of the "fit and finish" is susceptible to a cheap feel. And it's noticeable on the lower, bottom part of my phone. There's a very minute gap in between the back cover and screen, internals, etc. component. Because of this, if I grab the phone (when it's laying down) from the bottom part to where it's squeezed between my fingers, there's a creaking sound from the plastic having a little give. I took the back cover off and took a look at the little hinges that grab the rest of the phone, and I don't see any noticeable difference between the sides and bottom part. Anyone else noticed this? Just grab your phone near the bottom and squeeze it between your fingers to see what I'm talking about.
