I hope not, I always take of my phones, have an invisibleshield on this bad boy, if I get a scratch I'll be pissed!

If it makes you feel any better, my glass cracked in two different places from sliding off my chest while I was laying on the floor.

Wow it cracked from like a 2ft slide?
Smh so much for this gorilla glass

I dropped mine from about 5 feet in the air onto solid concrete. It landed directly on the back side (battery cover) and hardly marked my back casing and nothing happened to the phone at all.
No screen protector or case.

No, it cracked from about a 6 inch slide. That's the worst part about it. There's not a single mark on my phone because it was in a case when it happened. I called Samsung and they have to evaluate whether the damage was caused by me or some sort of manufacturing defect. I'm almost positive they're gonna rule against me despite how ridiculous the circumstances were.

It was just some plastic case that Target (ironically) had on clearance. I kinda regret that decision...

It mostly depend on the point of impact. If you dropped it directly at it's corner, it'll most likely crack. And I feel the screen on this phone cracks way too easily. I've dropped it once on my bed. Luckily the screen didn't crack.

I have minor scratches on my screen from I have no clue what, I've had a case on it since day one and never lay my phone on its front only on the back and it has minor but noticeable scratches. Annoying and very weak GG

Anyone not have their SIII in a case?

Just curious. I got my SIII on the 29th and haven't bothered with a case yet. My previous phone was an archaic Motorola Razr V3m that I had for 5 years and in that time I only dropped it a couple times on the carpet, and once it hit my closet door track which did put a ding on it. I'm thinking of just forgoing a case.

Only have ghost armor in mine. No hard case.
Dropped quite a few times. Usually just the battery case pops off in the harder falls. One fall left an slight dent that I didn't even notice till later.
Have dropped on sides and front. No screen cracks yet. No scratches...only because of the skin that covers the full body.

Never bother with cases, bulky, ugly and unpractical. Had everything from a Nokia to iPhone 4s. Dropped all at least once when getting out of the car with my good luck none ever broke just a chip lol. However a screen protector is a must for resale value, most people don't care about the back.

I've just recently noticed that they're 3 dark spots behind the glass myself. I only noticed it while I was flashing a ROM and it got stuck on just a black screen but was still illuminated. Wonder what that can be. I haven't dropped this phone that i can recall.
As far as cases go, I normally don't buy them but i do have a TPU case for this phone that i put on every now and then

This was a common issue with the t989(s2) right out of the box it's a defect call T-Mobile and get a free warranty replacement. Probably shouldn't mention the drop although pretty sure that has nothing to do with it as I'm on my second s3 and they have both had dark spots. It took me three tries to get a perfect s2

Yeah I plan on keeping mine for a while at least when my manufactures warranty is coming to an end I'll have a legit reason to get a brand new/refurb phone.

Yea those dark spots were bad on the t989 actually very bad. The gs3 is a long way from that but this is definitely the result of their amoled screen

I'm using a D30 case from T-Mobile but I have never dropped my phone, I rarely leave it out unless it's on the charger when I'm in bed. I don't get how people don't protect their devices in some way.

The glass of this phone seems to cracked too easily, so I bought a case for this phone. This is the first phone I ever feel that need a case. I had the galaxy s and the iphone 4 and both were never in a case.

So she freezes it, then bakes it, then throws it down a flight of stairs and then drops it. I'm sure the cooking and freezing would already compromise the integrity of the glass. She's hella annoying.

I'm returning my Otterbox Commuter in favour of this Seidio Active case. (I've only had my N2 for a week).
I know the Otterbox is much better in terms of protection but I find the slick hardshell combined with its size makes my N2 hard to hold.
Hopefully this Seidio Active provides enough protection in case I drop my phone onto the floor.
I won't be baking or freezing my new phone though.

Cars can get pretty hot inside with windows rolled up in heat of summer.
95degF can lead to an inside air temperature 149degF + in just 15 minutes , Longer the car remains unopened the hotter it gets you can bake cookies.

If you think the seidio active is gonna be less slick, I think you're in for a surprise. Though I've never used the commuter, I was using an active before the defender came out, and I kept feeling like it was gonna slide out of my hand. Not to mention how loose the rubber part is.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium

I've had my Seidio Active for several days now. Way better traction than the Otterbox Commuter. Nowhere near the protection, but certainly more practical.
The commuter is very slick and much much larger. Its hard to hang on to with one hand, and I have rather large hands.

I really woudn't be surprized if she did all this the same day, or within a few hours. Theres no way ANY piece of glass could go from frozen to baked to being kicked around without breaking LOL.
In vegas we had glass just break sitting outside on the glass truck at 120 degree in mid summer

I agree. I had an Active before the Defender. The Active is much more slippery, stick with the Otter.

I can verify from first hand experience that his phone does not take even a small drop onto a hard surface well. My first one slipped out of my pocket and fell no more than 30 inches onto pavement and it looked like it had been ran over by a dump truck. Get a case and never look back folks.

Dropped my N2

So I've had the note 2 for over a month now. I don't have a screen protector or a case on. And I've dropped my phone twice and got some Nick around the side. So I ordered a case on eBay, seller is from China and of course I'm still waiting for the case to arrive. Today I dropped my phone right on my concrete drive way. ..and the screen is cracked

you can get insurance on pre-paid.
when i was working at the store, i would not let somebody leave unless they had insurance or a case. this is exactly why. you drop something made of glass, it will likely break. until that flex composite screen is implemented on these devices, well, good luck and cross your fingers if you drop one of these things.
OP, sucks man. sorry to hear that. i have been lucky thus far and dropped many of my devices without cracking a screen. had a case on my s3, and my note II simply because they are bigger, weigh more, and therefore will hit the ground with more force.
get a case, and be careful

Looking on it in near sight I've already noticed one thing. The glass doesn't cover full size of the phone but instead has .2mm spare space to the edges of phone. Also the glass in not surrounded by banking board. Also the glass has beveled edge, about 70° sharp.
So I presume that the glass would not crack even if the phone would be dropped from 6 feet height. Unless of course it would be dropped flat fall on screen
Another indirect proof of that is here. Watch Note 2 has cracked glass when G Pro doesn't have severe damages

If you think this device is drop proof you are delusional. I haven't watched the linked video nor do I need to. The front is glass and could crack from a 6" fall. Many things factor in here including luck.

Well, someone eventually will test it, people drop their phones here and there.
And also I'll attach here link to this topic Optimus G = UNBREAKABLE

Well no phones drop proof obviously but ive had 2 friends that had lg phones and ive had one myself and I can tell u theyre probably the some of the best built on the market. My connect was dropped, thrown, stepped on, kicked and all manner of torment and worked like the day I bought it till the day I traded it in on this. Ive seen lg phones survive multiple (so many I lost count) drops that would have sent a samsung or htc device to the scrap heap...

Exactly. My wife has a One X. She has dropped, thrown it onto a hard floor with force, and let's our 3 old play with it like it's his. It has a ton of scratches, but hasn't broken. Some were saying when it released that it was super fragile. I guess since hers has been abused it must be the toughest phone ever made. Right? No, she's been extremely lucky.

I'm assuming by patio you mean stone/brick/concrete/pavers, right? If that's the case, most phones wouldn't be too fond of an 18" drop.

Yeah, but I've had other phones hit asphalt from 4-5 feet high on the corner and survive with only nick in the bezel. My post is just a warning that this phone is definitely not "drop proof". I've only had the OGP for four days and already have to shell out $ for an insurance claim. Sad thin is my case I ordered is supposed to show up today.
