So how resilient is the One X? Place bets... NOW - HTC One X

I use my phones when running to time and track them, pretty common.
Tonight, half way through my run an epic downpour of flash flood creating proportions occurred drenching me in seconds, whilst the One X was attached to me in a neoprene arm band. There was pretty much zero useful cover
I hid in a large bush to take the worst of it and powered the phone off. The rain never stopped (although it was much less absurd), so I had to finish the remaining 3-odd miles in it, trying to shield the phone from the rest of the rain.
It's now in a bag full of rice (brown, one of it's five a day) on a radiator. Fingers crossed I'm just paranoid and it will power up just fine tomorrow.

If it's perfect unit without gaps and stuff like that, i guess it will be fine .

Hmm.. horrible story, no pocket, roof... nothing to hide? .
I would leave it with the face down and keep my fingers crossed it will function again.
Good luck with it!

Yeah I had a pocket, two in fact. Which were soaking wet, like everything else though, so not much help.

I would put the phone between my but cheeks...

I think your chances are quite good mate. The unibody and speaker design make it almost water resistant.
I'm now going 4 weeks since phone was fully submerged and not one issue yet.
Good luck.

Yeah, I think you'll be fine buddy. I remember reading on here about some dude who dropped his HOX in a lake while fishing and it was absolutely fine after pulling it out.
I had the same thing happen to me though, was out running exactly the same as you and got pi$$ed down on in apocalyptic proportions. Just carried on running and the phone was absolutely fine.

Living in a rainforest myself I can say you would be fine. I pull out my phone all the time in this drenchy weather. Touchscreen won't work properly tho but the HoX will be fine.

Unibody design doesn't seem like a bad idea now, does it?

Well the problem with one x is the micro usb and headphones that will allow water to seep through. however as you switch off your phone before its fully wet and do not switch it on again until its fully dried, the chances of getting everything to work will be very-very good.

I got soaked to the skin in our beautiful British weather way back in June, an absolute torrential downpour. I was out all day walking, weather was sunny for most of the day so it was a pair of shorts and a shirt and that was it. Walked about two miles in said downpour to train station, I couldn't have been any wetter if I'd jumped in the sea fully clothed. I shielded my hox as best I could just with my hand. Dried it with some paper towels when I got to the station and have never had a problem since, I doubt you'll have any problems.

Yeah that was my plan, getting it powered down as soon as possible should mitigate things.
When taking the phone out of the armband (foamy neoprene, so that should have kept the worst at bay) it was a bit streaky on the surface as you'd expect, but wasn't dripping, so it was towelled (carefully, didn't want to hit the power button) and bagged.
It's been in the rice bag for about 13½ hours now and will stay there 'til this evening (as I am at work now). In the meantime, it's strange not having something with notifications going off all the time, hell I haven't even bothered with a spare phone today... silence is golden
Unibody is a good thing in cases like this, the rear speaker is pretty well sealed, and I don't have any (noticeable) gaps around the screen.

my HOX has fallen on to our wooden floor on 6 or 7 occasions, apart from one tiny tiny svcratch on the screen, this phone has no other blemishes. Quality build!!!!

Crazy downpour 0:1 HTC One X

It has less to do with the phone's design and more to do that regular water just isn't a great conductor. I've pretty much soaked every phone I've had in the last 10 years and never had one fail.

Dropped mine in sink of water months ago. It freaked for a bit resetting itself drained all its battery and wouldn't stay off or charge properly but after a few hours of drying whilst rebooting it was fine. Water marks behind screen cleared after a few days.
Then it was knocked off a table from 4 foot height onto stone floor. Screen shattered. The major weakness of this phone is the protruding screen edges. Glass shatters easier from the edges.

My earlier experience was with LG Optimus 7 and after 4days of drying the microphone does not work in anyway usable to make call. That is the end of my experience with win 7. The phone was in the washing machine up to the rinse cycle

Mine was knocked by a friend and my HOX fell onto the tar road... Rear battery cover was scratched, camera lens (outer) cracked, but surprisingly screen unscathed... Bought a new white casing (my old one was black) and now voila,like a brand new white HOX... Cool eh...

Sorry to hear. Take solace in the fact that w/ most scratches, a screen protector will hide it and you won't even notice it, assuming the scratch isn't too deep.
EDIT: I just saw you said there was no scratch found. Glad to hear.
the weight of GN is lighter than my last phone Desrie HD, I think this is why there is no scratch
My phone fell out of my pocket in the theater last night onto the concrete floor and I was worried for the rest of the movie. Got out and not a single blemish on it! Seems to be fairly durable so far, not that I want to be testing that out.
I dropped my GSM version down a flight of stairs... about 6-8 steps at work.
Stairs/floor was carpeted though.
Phone bounced, slid, flipped.
Not a single scratch, dent, etc.
I had no screen protector on either.

You guys are lucky. Mine slipped off of a table onto concrete from about 4 feet high and I have some pretty nasty chips/dings on the plastic around the screen. I'm going to sell this one and get a new GN and keep it in a case at all times.

i know people always say that light devices feel 'cheap' however imo i prefer it causes less damage when you drop it, while i havnt done it yet with my cowon s9 when listening to music and if you drop it its too light to actually disconnect the headphones so it just swings there , im hoping the GN will be similar if it ever happens
I was jogging and dropped my Nexus on pavement. Got some scratches in the housing...*cringe* but the screen is still flawless. :-(

[War Stories] Have you dropped your One X? How did it fare?

Anyone been unfortunate enough to drop your One X? Or bring it to endure any other cruel and unusual (or mundane) punishment?
How did it fare?
Things like, what case did you have, and how far did you drop it from? Did it break? Or hold it's own?
i dropped once. no case no guard about chest height probably 1.5m. no damage and screen flicker disappeared dont know what happened but it was magical
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I don't know how I did it, but I somehow managed to launch my phone halfway across the floor and face/screen-down onto laminate floor. No damage, but it went with such a bang that I really expected to see a crack!
Mine slipped out of my hand while I was drunk, hit the ground and then I kicked it and it slid for about 3 metres.
Result was a nasty dent on the lower left corner and a scratched camera lens.
Think the phone escaped much worse damage by some good luck.
Edit: Should also mention that the glass popped out of the body on one side, and had to be clicked back into place.
Dropped mine with no case from a hight of about 3.5 feet. It fell face up onto a linoleum floor, hit on a corner and then slid a few feet.
There was no visible damage anywhere. With all the noise it made and as much as it slid I expected scratch on the polycarbonate or a cracked screen at the corner. Was please to see it was perfectly fine including the camera lens. I think the polycarbonate is pretty sturdy.
The lens and screen are the areas to be concerned about.
Dropped mine from 1.5 meters height with the screen side to the ground on a sidewalk. After it got dropped it made a slide on the sidewalk for about 15 cm.
I really thought it would had scratches on the screen or something, but it didn't. Only a little minor scratch between the screen and the body.
Used for a bit of emergency navigation in the ash-tray of our car (Sensation fit in there perfectly) it slid out on a corner, about 6 inches. Slid over metal or grit because it got 2 scratches on the glass along with a nasty little gouge at the start of one.
I can live with it, I know Gorilla Glass is not magical. Got screen protectors now.
Mine slid out of my hand while I was sitting on the edge of the Mississippi river, faced down across the grass and then onto some rocks. Got some small scratches in the screen I'm gonna wait a couple months then replace it using ensquare

I was doing cardio at the gym on a treadmill. The phone was resting on the display area so I could watch a TV show while doing my steady-state cardio session. When I finished, I got off the treadmill without taking my headphones out of my ears, I accidentally hit the cord and it yanked the phone off it's resting place, it hit the safety-bar/arm rail thing, and then hit the plastic border of the treadmill, and then landed on the carpeted floor. After I resumed my breathing and my heart started beating again, I picked it up and there was only a tiny smudge on the back which rubbed out with my finger. It didn't even turn off. This was with no case.
Yikes.
No Damage
No case/protectors on mine. It slipped out of my hands while sitting & bounced/slid .5 m on a hard tile floor. I expected something, but it came away unscathed!
Still getting both a case & screen protector, just to be safe

I wasn't far from it but just thankful the phone still does everything it should. The scratches on the camera were around the metal rim so no effect on picture quality.
I ordered a case for it the next day.
I was walking to the kitchen while replying to an SMS.
Kitchen almost reached, I was at the estabilished goal! Let's put the phone in its pouch.... OH NO!
I've accidentally launched it, dunno how, on the floor with the screen faced down: the whole thing happened in like one second, but it was an hard and LONG second (felt like 30 seconds), with me there with the pouch in my hands and the X falling on the floor.
I walked and took my One X, raised it from the floor carefully.......

......and it was surprisingly perfect! Not a scratch, but something really not noticeable on the lower right corner of the phone shell.

A dent? Like the plastic is bent inward as metal would be? Or there's like a chunk of plastic missing (rubbed away?)
Anyhow...
I'm glad to hear it fares well in minor skirmishes!
Looks like the choice to spring with a phone with Guerrilla Glass was a good move (Can anyone attest to it being better than other screen materials?)
Also, from the sound of it, the claims that the One X is "flimsy" don't seem quite as sturdy as the phone itself? What do you think?
I've dropped my 3 times so far, well technically I've dropped it twice and thrown it once.
The 2 times I dropped it were both onto carpet so did not damage the phone ( from about 60cm once and 80cm the second time)
The time I threw it was from about 50cm high and about the same distance out onto laminate flooring because I was using it in the bath and had finished with it, was fine on this occasion too.

What kind of abuse can your one V take? :)

Mine seems pretty indestructable. Can't even count how many times I've dropped it. Ha. Today I was fishing and dropped it in mud and water. It filled up the USB. Hahaha didn't even flinch. Cleaned it up good to go. No case and no screen protector. Only one minor hairline scratch on the screen. What do you guys put it through?

Don't remember how exactly, but water got into the phone and screen once. It dried out and revived after I dumped it into a tub of rice and left it there overnight.
Also, dropped it countless times and there are numerous scratches on the back of the phone. There are still signs of water damage on the LCD, but it's still going strong like a champ. One V ftw! :laugh:
dropped it a handful of times. still working though.

Only a few scuffs on the bezel here, but I use a medium strength case when out and about

So far, so good. No case, and I've had it about a month. No scratches, scuffs, or anything.
Mine developed a pretty nasty scratch on the screen--how, I don't know. I can feel it with my fingertip too, which is quite annoying.
I've had mine about 6 months or so, and I've been using it without any case or screen protector. Dropped it many times, even on concrete. Just few scratches on bezel. Nothing on the screen.
Had mine close to a year now. Bought a case, rarely use it. Dropped it hard on icy cement from a standing position. Which an iPad user found hilarious mimicking the "Droid" startup sound immediately. Picked up the phone, worried, looked at it and it virtually smiled at me. Not a scratch anywhere. Not on the back, not on the screen, and none on the corners.

I have a case but rarely use it since it makes it feel bulky in my pocket. I have dropped it many times and really the only scratches on the bezel are there because I keep my phone in the same pocket as my keys.
No case, but I do have a screen protector. had first drop today off desk and onto one of the legs of my chair, but the cracking sound I heard seemed to be the chair. Phone came out unharmed
I have a barely there case along with generic screen saver and mine looks like the day I got it (not a single scratch or blemish). I have dropped it about 10 times and NOTHING. bought mine used btw and it was flawless when I received it. By far the most durable phone I've had so far. Motorola phones in general seem well built.

Yeah, I accidentally knocked mine into the bathroom sink full of water.The micr-sd card was already on its last legs and the water finished it off. And the external speaker wasn't as loud as normal for about a day and a half until it completely dried out. But it works fine now and the sd card was replaced by sandisk's warranty.
I've dropped mine an innumerable number of times on concrete with no damage to usability. My OCD hates the scratches on the bevel, but nothing on the screen or elsewhere. The worst I've had is the bottom part of the case came loose one time when I really, really hit it hard on the ground. Still going fine...
Dropped mine taking out of my pocket, cracked the back glass thing. Then dropped in water sink for a sec accidentally, phone wouldn't work for about a day, now it's fine though. Just not waterproof anymore

Some time back I was driving a 1994 Cadillac, disgusted with how my conversation had gone, i threw my Iphone4S on to my dashboard, where it bounced and hit the windshield, and shattered the phone beyond useability.... that's what put me in the market for a new phone.
Grabbed a Razr M, and in short time history repeats itself....threw it against the dash, into the glass....the Razr M spidered the windshield....... happy to know I can replace a windshield in a 2006 Dodge Ram for $155, that still $44 less than the deductible for the Iphone4s.

How about this one? This happened the 1st day I had the phone. I was roofing house and the phone accidently slipped out of my hand. I watched it slide down the roof and disappear over the edge then I heard it hit the concrete walkway 2 stories below. I didn't even bother to look at it or let alone want to go pick up the pieces as I figured it was destroyed. 2 of my workers saw the whole thing happen and kept busting me about killing my new phone in less than a day. A couple minutes later I heard a phone ringing and yelled for someone to answer it. The other 2 guys on the roof with me both responded that it wasn't their phone. It took a while for it to dawn on me that it was my phone I had just dropped ringing on the ground below so I decided to investigate. I climbed down the ladder and was amazed to find the phone in one piece with the screen side up. I picked it up hit the power button and was shocked when the screen turned on and had no cracks. I have no idea how the phone actually impacted the concrete after falling off the roof but the only damage was some scrapes on the bezel. I consider the build quality and design of this phone to be amazing especially compared to a friends S3 which didn't survive a fall from a kitchen counter after being swatted by his cat.
Great story! However, in this one, the cat is the Legend!

So I've finally had an incident the old lady and I we're in the midst of a fight and she throws out there you love your phone more than me so to prove a point I throw it at the wall pretty much as hard as I can and of course it goes to the wall unlike other phones which have shattered into pieces.... thinking the worst I'm like oh well... patch up the hole and forget about it... I get home later that day and she meets me at the door saying that we have mice in the wall... I knew when she said that what it was... I tell her to call my phone and sure enough the rattle in the wall she had been hearing was my phone... I cut it out and nothing but some dry wall on the corner... after a vigorous scrub you can't even tell....

Lg OG strength.

Hey all, I recently dropped my LGOG on bathroom tiles from about chest height, without a cover.
And I am pleased to say that I have left with only a few scuffs on the chrome lining.
Now I know that it depends on luck and how it lands, but I must say I am impressed with the phones ability to withstand drops from that height.
I have also dropped it twice before on concrete.
Anybody else feel free to add your opinion.
Mine also felt on bathroom tiles,i was scarred to pick it up,but then i was surprised like you.
Nothing,not a single scratch
Im very pleased with my OG

Dropped mine at work today with protector case. It landed from 1 meter down and rolled. It landed on LCD. When i look at it nothing. My case saved it.
Mine fell from a dressor thats over 4 feet high on to the hard wood floor. It happend twice and not a scratch on the phone. I didnt have a case or screen protector on the phone either. I'm sure the way the phone landed helped but regardless its a very solid built phone.
Mine also fell from my pocket and nothing happened. It really gives the vibe of a really solid and nice built phone. It's such a shame to have to put a case on it since it looks so slim and gorgeous without one haha
One thing I noticed is that without a case I find it too slippery...
On the way to my vacation i sat down next to the road. My LGOG fell 10 centimeters screen down. The screen shatteret. Touch does not work where it hit. So 50% of the touch is not working. :crying:
Well, good i also have my 2 years old LG Optimus 2X with me. That thing has more scratches and landings face down than i can count. :good:

Mine has managed to slip out of my pocket onto concrete and it was fine.
It has slid down the side of the couch a few times and that's when it got damaged. Got some scuffs in the right hand bottom corner and the chrome was bent, it fell down again last night and the bent bit of chrome came off. Tiny amount, hardly noticable but still, gutted =(
It is such a pretty phone I don't want to put a cover on it but I so need to
I kept some of the plastic strips on the sides that it came with to kind of help it lol
I also find it hard to put a cover onto as the back is simply stunning.
But seeing as it is new and it is on a 24 month plan I must make it last.
A few chips on the chrome sides I can live with.
I did manage to put full knee weight on the back of it, in a tent. I then heard a 'plop'.. The back shattered, but the cracks don't run over the camera - - there is this mini contour, like a millimeter high, that prevented that. All the other times I dropped it ( 3, 4 times) the kind of bookish cover saved the day, as it should. So the back is no more, but with the casing still the front is free of any scratches. The G is a resilient phone.. It just has some trouble with 180 pounds of pressure on a corner Still, pretty impressive, everything works!

you guys are some lucky s.o.bs man i dropped my phone during lunch (im a senior in highschool) and no cracks yay! but absoluteley no touchscreen no no no!!
The phone fell to the ground a couple of times, no issues at all. Also one time I took my guitar from the wall hanger, but it slipped and the headstock hit hard on the screen (what a noise it made!), not even a scratch. I'm surprised.
I have my E975 slip out of my hands while connected to charger when the cable snagged. It flipped around, and smashed onto my table's glass surface over a 6" drop. The entire front glass shattered. Had to replace it myself, the entire front assembly. It was an expensive lesson. I've since slipped on a ugly case
Just dropped my phone from a 4 feet high cabinet last night and there wasn't any crack, scratch or dings, I'm really impressed with the build of this phone
