Is it safe to use it without a case (in case of a drop from like belt height), have you has drops like this and no signs of damage, or you have broken the screen or damaged something from less than that height.
And what about the trident case will it protect good from drops from belt height?
thanks

Screen is scratch proof basically, I dropped mine 3 times already at waist level still working fine and im not using any case protector as there is no available stuff like that here on my country yet. I advice you use I-shield for your phone.
I've dropped my play from a bit higher than belt height. The battery case popped off and the battery fell out, but once I snapped it back together, it's like it never fell
I have found that the R800x has been no more fragile than any other phone. I had one of those silicone covers on mine for a while but I had to take it off to use the docking station. So after a while I quit using it, and I haven't had any problems. YMMV.
I dropped mine and it fell face down and it hit the screen. It hit the corner of my desk where the those sharp corners are.
Still the screen works fine!

Wow thanks, i didn't expect it to be so resistant, especially with a big glass screen.
On the other hand, the white plastic is not so fragile.
On my first drop, it hit the ground on the bottom right corner (the Search button area), and a small piece of the white plastic fell off.

What white plastic? The part that the battery back locks in to?
And I believe your choice of words should be "the white plastic is very fragile," indicating that it breaks easily.
It's not that good, I dropped mine on concrete and the digitizer broke straight away, LCD was fine though, before that i also dropped it on the bus and they have that special gritted rubber floor and it scratched the case and the bottons on the back (L1 and R1)
Guess i just have bad luck

I'm a noob so have to ask this. What is the difference between the screen digitizer breaking and the LCD not ?
So you could see everything on screen but the touch screen wasn't working ?

Well digitizer registers screen touches and lcd displays everything, the digitizer is made from glass so it shatters, in my case it shattered but still registered touches
Dropped from belt level, Just some scratches on one corner, otherwise no damage.
I drop mine several times a week. Never from above 2 or 3 feet, and on carpet, but it's like I never did.
I also regularly wake up and find I'm lying on it.
The most I've dropped previous phones is once or twice (the whole time I've had them), if ever.
I don't know why I drop this phone all the time. Every time I do I think, "That's it, that's the one that ****s it up". Not yet though...
It's a tough phone.

i droped mine on stairs ... digitizer fully broken, but still recgnoized the touch commands (good work se )
I buyed a new one at Ebay from HongKong for only 20€, open the play, droped out the old and insert the new digitizer and now i'm happy with this great phone again
It won't be as durable as keyboardless phones, I find the Samsung Galaxy phones to be much more durable with Gorilla glass. I can press against the screen to distort the liquid crystal. I have dirt under the screen also, which never happens with the Samsung.
I think all slide out phones require extra care so I will definitely get a case for it, especially the plastic seems easy to scratch.
Well my friend dropped it on the screen at sitting level. It worked fine. I threw it out of my hand once and it fell flat on the screen and it slid down the car ramp on the sidewalks. It survived with only one tiny scrape on the corner, close to the screen. Ever since I took my case off two weeks ago I've been dropping my phone many times. My friend knocked my phone straight out of my hand yesterday and I had chance to catch it. I got lucky.anyway tthis week has been the worst week for my phone because it has been dropped more than any electronic I ever had in aa year!!!

In my opinion it's a pretty ****ty build quality. Yeah the screen does survive falls from waist height but you should be expecting that from any phone. The hard buttons on the front are quite badly scratched on mine just from normal use. Also I have some scrapes on the corners from the odd drop. And the game pad is scratched I think from sliding the screen up and down so I'm not impressed. I also hate how wobbly the screen is.

LOL, that happens to me too! Good thing is that when you do, the screen becomes smooooth! Sadly it heats up the phone and the digitizer acts up crazy for at least 10 minutes. And yes, it's a tough phone, true that.

I woke up this morning in a rush, threw my phone in my pocket. Ran out the door to class.
Realized after class when a friend wanted to look at my phone they were with my keys! There are all these little microscratches and a few bigger ones DEAD CENTER.
It isn't too noticeable until light his it from a certain direction.
But I cannot freakin believe that I let that happen. I usually am completely OCD about these things, and I normally put screen protectors and cases on my phone the MINUTE I open the damn thing.
Hell - I do it for all my devices. My laptop, Vita, my gaming consoles, I have protective stuff for everything!
The Note 2 didn't have a Zagg yet, and they list it on their page but it isn't featured or "imaged". The last time I did that with Zagg, the damn thing came to be unpunctured - aka I had to manually cut the material out with a knife (hard as hell to do, near impossible without stretching!)
So I waited one day too long it seems. Screw me right?
I'm so annoyed and bothered now. Brand new phone, brand new scratches. First phone screen scratch issue I've had in over 4 years.
Does anyone know any real solutions (aka not toothpaste -.-) that I could try to buffer them out?

Have you returned phones to ATT before? Im not familiar with the process and how easy it may or may not be.
If you get a replacement, they do sell the Zagg Shields for the Note II at Best Buy. When I first bought my Note 2, I immediately drove to Best Buy and picked up the HD version of the Zagg Shield for it! It definitely looks good on the phone. They had the smudge free version of the shield but I'm not sure if it lowers the clarity...

If you're within your 14 day return window, they will just charge you $35 restock fee and give you a new one. Or .. just suck it up.. slap on a screen protector now and you won't even notice the scratches.
Damn, what the hell are your keys made of? Steel can't even scratch tempered glass let alone gorilla glass 2.

Happened to me the 2nd day I had my Note.
I put it in my backpack for less than 15 minutes in the afternoon. THAT NIGHT I got my new screen protectors in the mail and as I was going to apply the screen I noticed the scratches all over the screen.
The glass is NOT scratch proof by any means just because it is gorilla glass. Sure typical metal wont scratch the screen but just about anything else will.
I took it back to ATT and they switched it for a new one, no questions asked for the restocking price of 35 bucks.
I slapped a screen protector on my new Note the minute I opened the box.

Have had phone for a month now and just noticed a 1cm scratch thats barely visible with the eye but can be felt with my fingernail. No idea what caused is ive been babying this. Thats what I get for believing in gorilla glass. Ordered JLG today to prevent future occurences
If it makes you feel any better I cracked the glass completely... I'm also very careful with my phones. It took a 3 foot fall onto pavement (hands not used the size yet) and the glass is completely shattered... it wasn't even 24 hours old. Now I am waiting fr the repair place to get the full lcd+touch+glass screen back in stock - will cost me over $300 to have it fixed.
Sooo - little scratches on your screen...
I'm not sure what kind of glass Sammie is using on the Note 2 but it seems pretty fragile. My original galaxy and moto Atrix handled much worse falls without any damage whatsoever.

It scratches on every device its been used on so screen protector up or Flip cover to avoid screen damage.
hehe I got lucky on my Epic Touch 4G no scratch ,ding or dents.
GN2 screen is larger more prone to damage so I'm using flip cover protection on it.
I recommend the Tridea case - http://www.amazon.com/Black-Samsung-Premium-T-Mobile-Unlocked/dp/B009SNTHPO/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Yeah I'm sure it's not the phone but just having more screen to scratch/crack etc. I always go caseless and without screen protector but I am buying a coat off armour for this sucker once it's repaired

Anybody else has a cracked screen on their GS4? mine developed a hairline crack across the middle within a week of me having it. and it wasn't from a drop or anything like that. i just happened to be looking at the screen and thought there was a hair on it. tried to flick it away and realized it was a crack. Tmobile wants me to pay for the repair or replacement because they think it was accidental damage. my point is, how can this phone possibly be this fragile? just putting it in your pocket might be enough to break the screen. this can't be right.

This phone got a lower rating on durability than the iPhone 5. That being said, had the phone for 8 days, just had finished rooting and installing the wicked ROM (very nice ROM kudos). Going in pocket for keys drop the phone, here are the details:
Phone:
Tmo Samsung Galaxy S4 (White)
Case:
Samsung Galaxy S IV D3O® Leather Flip Cover - Black
Hard shell back with soft touch feel, leather cover that flips closed to protect your screen
Made with military grade D3O® intelligent technology
D3O® molecules lock together to absorb shock
Fall Height/Floor type:
3-4 ft. / Concrete
Angle of impact:
Initial impact was on the bottom left corner.
Secondary impact was top Left corner
End position was face down.
Case was still on the phone
Phone Results:
Very fine shattering on the bottom 1/4 of the phone with one bottom to top crack from initial impact.
Secondary impact created another light cluster of cracks from left to right in the middle of screen.
Case Results:
Two of the sides broke off on impact instantly causing the phone to absorb most of the force.:crying:
Knowledge gained:
Phone is fragile as hell... Military Grade cases (as stated by the case details) are crap...Buy an Otterbox.
And yes, do be careful when putting it in your pocket... regardless of tightness or fully loaded wallet.
+1 to Otter Box. (Look on OB's website or Amazoon BTW, don't waste your time looking on Tmo.)

same here. I have a case and screen protector on it, and i take very good care of my devices. I can't believe just fragile this phone is.
started a similar threads few days after received it May 4th and 5th. I was in the bathroom giving my son a bath and I was on my knees near a bath mat that was about 3 inches thick shag carpet not only did the phone drop barely a foot and a half it landed on the corner on a soft surface and the peace of the bezel peeled off, the silver part on topholding the screen glass not the side bezel.
I mean come on... 18 inches off ground on to 3inch thick softtt threaded shag bath mat..
. No real crack. BUT just like everyone else tmobile said I had to pay 175.00 deductible because I damaged it..
if we show them this thread of multiple users with Similar problems, do you think they might get thats its not us?
I dropped my phone face-down this afternoon about 18 inches with a $3 case (made by BoxWave) and it doesn't have a scratch on it.
I think it's a temperamental thing where it depends on the angle, velocity, etc of the phone.
Regarding the hairline crack, couldn't T-Mo see that there were no other impacts around the actual phone? This definitely sounds like a defect more than something you caused...

I did take it back to the store to show them the phone, and its obvious that the phone was never dropped. There is no damage anywhere on the phone and the crack is a clean break. I might have to send it back to Samsung or something.
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

Just wondering how everyone's phones is holding up since there aren't any real good protective cases or user drop test videos yet. I haven't dropped my oppo yet but I'm curious to find out who has and how the phone stood up to the fall.
I have for sure had some issues and I am not happy with them. somehow my screen has scratches on it, in 2 or 3 places. In the very top right corner it is starting to look like air bubbles under a screen protector, where the screen glass actually looks like it is coming off. It has fallen once, and bounced, the bottom corner of the bezel is damaged due to the fall. The scratches appeared on my screen weeks before the fall.

I took off the screen protector as it wasn't fitted properly in one of the corners, I have ordered more as the screen is a dust magnet. I have ordered the iFace Mall cases for my phone, it's so annoying having to order accessories from China because no-one in the UK seems to sell them.
I dropped my oppo twice by now.
The first time from about 30cm on tiled flor, and the second time yesterday from about one meter on tiled floor.
At the first fall it falls on the upper left edge, there you can see that the metalframe had prevented more damage.
At the second fall it fall on the display side. Now the "plastic frame" arround the screen prevented damage to the screen.
Ha I managed to drop mine today as well about 3 1/2 feet on to hard concrete and it bounced on 3 corners and the back cover popped off. I just knew once I picked it up that it was done for but the screen was untouched and the metal bumper took allot of the impact. If this would of been my old iphone it would of certainly cracked. Very happy with the durability of this phone.

I just bought oppo find 7 last week because of the good spec they offer but I was dissapointed with it after only 1 week. My oppo have been heating up frequently and sometimes a bit lagging. My phone was very hot on the first day itself while I was just setting up my new phone such as installing app and sync my account. I can feel it even with the casing. And it also a bit laggy when wake up from sleep. When I double tap, the screen will wake up but I need to wait few second before it respond. Sometimes I need to double tap to off and on again a few time only it works. Its sometimes get annoying when you want to access your phone quickly. But this, I still can bare with but what finally drew the last straw is the fragility of the phone. I always put my phone in the small pouch inside my handbag. And yesterday when I come back home, I found out the screen on my phone is crack. I was so shock and try to recall what I did and I remember when I ask my friend to pass me my bag, she did put down my bag on the table a bit harder. And that's the only thing I think can think of that cause the most impact. I was so sad and disappointed with oppo because the screen crack just because of this small impact even though its protected with a casing and a curve hd tempered glass. Its so different from what was advertised with the toughness of their guerilla glass if it can't even withstand this small impact which other phone brand have no problem with it. This experience is making me doubting the quality of oppo phone and its only been a week since I bought it. Now my friend and family also starting to doubt oppo phone since what happen to my phone.
Well a week ago my oppo fall on the road, cracking on the left side, top of it
I use a protective case of transparent plastic, but on the corners, near the screen, doesn`t protect well....:crying:
Finally, some days ago i discover that the cracks, are from my Nilkellin screen protector, and not the Gorilla itself!:laugh::laugh:
I order another Nilkellin H9 and im very happy to make the investiment on this, because it seems it really protected my screen!:angel::angel:
cracked and dead
Lets start this out with a disclaimer... I HAVE NEVER HAD A CRACKED SCREEN BEFORE... but I managed to be in a hurry one day at the store getting my son out of his car seat and dropped my phone from waste height onto the concrete... poof, the screen is killed and all touch responsiveness gone.. So, I order a screen off aliexpress, it gets here and I install it.... Two days later I'm on a bike ride up my favorite trail (phone in a padded pocket of a backpack) and I ate hit a rock coming down forcing my balls into my handlebars but overall still staying on the bike. Get to the bottom of the mountain, take phone out to turn off the gps, and there is my nice and new screen cracked again... again with no touch response.
Fast forward like 4 months and I finally calmed down enough to order another screen and try again. Let's see how long this one lasts, lol.... This time I did order a tempered glass screen protector from the get-go, so hopefully that helps.
Hi giznad. You replaced the screen or led the task to a technician? I can't find a video for the Find 7a. It was dificult to do?
Thanks.
