Motorola
V3i vs V3x
As I have stated before, I am an American living in Dubai (middle East) I currently own the V3i and as with the V3, I am totally happy with it. it does all it is supposed to do and well.
The V3x was introduced here about a month ago and a few friends have purchased it. it is a very good looking phone very similar the the V3 only a bit thicker. VERY nice looking. The thing that is stopping me is the PLASTIC housing. WHY PLASTIC??? Could this have anything to do with 3g technology? I dont understand why Moto would ruin a great phone by enclosing it in Plastic!?!?! Anyone have any idea why they have done this?

Because they are...
cheap?
liked plastic better?
didn't want to have to buy paint?
concerned that the metal would interfere with the RF transmitters?
got too many complaints from people who didn't like the metal case?
got a good deal on some bulk plastic?
ran out of metal?
Who knows? Most phones these days have plastic casings. Maybe a more appropriate question is why did they make the others out of metal?
