Product/System:
Subject: GSM V600 - CLI Lens
Problem:
Service is aware of an issue affecting the CLI Lenses (6187309Y01/Y02/Y03) on GSM V600 handsets,
shipped during the months of December 2003 through May 2004. The affected lenses start to show visible
cosmetic defects, after periods of use. Cracking at the top of the lens near the hinge barrel (1), cracking on
the center of the lens above the camera hole and to the right of the mirror (2), and cracking on the chrome
ring near the insertion tabs (3) are the three known defects that have been seen on the affected CLI
Lenses. See Diagrams below for examples of these defects. Analysis has revealed the cracking to be
caused by molded-in stresses, which manifest after time and stabilize once the stresses have been
relieved. The root cause of the molded-in stresses is related to process timing issue at the supplier between
the filling of the mold and the IMD Decoration process.
