      Pretty well actually, as we didn't drop our phones in a pointless experiment. If you're as clumsy as to drop a phone, then buy one with a case, or buy the old durable Nokia phones that claimed that they could be dropped without damage with rubber casing.

          Quality materials my ass. Every 3gs or 4 I see at my friends is either back cover or glass cracked. Why? Not because your drop it every minute but material is not so fkucking great. Lets compare the gorilla glass alone. Search youtube where the force being applied to both ifone glass and gorilla. Quality! yeah right.

              Is this official from google and samsung? The device is not out yet. To be honest not worth 800. I think it will be about the 600 dollar range. Remember there are two versions, LTE and HSPA. Let's wait for the official word, they should have menrioned their target price. Thoes noobs :)

                        I personally think the phone is worth the money. Look at the features, it's like a miniature laptop. I personally love Super Amoled displays, and this has one that will beat the majority of TV's currently on the market. I always read comments about the build material of these phones, and quite frankly don't understand completely. People claim that iPhone's are of higher build quality, but at what cost? Most people I know with an iPhone have, or have previously shattered their phones. Would you rather have a carbon fiber or a piece of metal?

                                      Why would they make a phone like this exclusive to a CDMA carrier? Outside the US it will be useless. Come on Samsung, bring this baby to the GSM side
