    In the last 9 months I and my boy drop my note3 about 6 times but so far no any problem, only small scratches on glass.

    The previous my Iphone 4S is far better than Iphone 6 now. I drop few times on floor but no any crack so far.

              luqman98, 19 Sep 2014Dude, it depends on how you handle the phone.this is based on accidental use my friend. does not matter if you make your knuckles red holding tight to your apple. accidents happen, they just happen. I didn't throw my phone down just for the hell of it.

                                    kiran, 19 Sep 2014Any phone will get broken if dropped.. But display replacem... morewell actually I dropped my my Lumia 930 on stone path when walking the dog. It just got a tiny scratch. nothing compared to this and my Lumia dropped from a higher level. this guy nearly has the iPhone half way to the ground in these tests and they there still a load of crap.. think I will stay with my strong companion.
