I got the active 5 for my daughter it shattered soon after we had it, we had insurance but still had to pay $ 199.00 deductible. They replaced it with an Active 6 we have only had it a few months the screen is black. There are no scratches or dings but a repair shop told me the LED Screen underneath the glass can break. He said they have repaired at least 5 in the last couple of weeks. We will never purchase another Active product, it has not proved to be durable as advertised.

I'm confused, I have no idea how people are having problems. I dropped my phone earlier today on concrete while getting out of my car. I've dropped the phone already 5 times within 6 months from 5 feet and more, have dropped it in the sink, used it in the rain, and let it sit in the shower. I have no case or screen protector, and no matter what I seem to abuse it with, I only have three small scratches on the plastic metal-looking sides. The falls weren't pretty either, as the phone has bounced, landed flat on the screen, or flat on its back. Yet the phone endures, and has never overheated. Don't even get me started on how long the battery lasts and how fast it charges. I love this phone, I definitely want the s7, but for right now, I don't understand where these complaints are coming from.

I called a local repair guy and because the phone was so new, I couldn't get it repaired. $200 deductible! I just bought a case and have been waiting for a repair shop for the fix. Funny thing now is that a new s6 active cost about the same as the repair. If I only knew that the product was subpar I would have bought a case for it.

if that the case then you/yourself are not the smarted person I know.
FYI... you can't compare the product make by any companies to the quality of the men/women. there no relations of the company that made the product/s to man/woman who served. even, if there are but i seriously doubt it in this case

I have had my s6 active for less than 3 months and lightly bumped the screen taking it out of my case and the screen shattered like an egg shell. If this what what is considered military grade it must be a bunch of sissies in the military that gave it the grade. I for one will never own another piece of junk samsung makes,sells,or is even affiliated with.

Ive had mine for 9 months and I've dropped it a couple hundred times i'm sure of that. its been in water a few times too and always comes out working after.. however I did drop it in the pool yesterday and it finally gave up on me.. customer service said it might be because of depth. anyway. even though I'm not happy bout the deductible i have to pay my insurance to get a new phone now, i still think it's a pretty durable phone!! would choose it again any day!

Purchased the Samsung 6 Active for its durability and it stopped working after ONLY 3 days. Took the phone to AT&T and was told it has a PRESSURE CRACK...really. The AT&T REP. could tell the phone had not been dropped, but said the phone was placed in my purse or pocket the wrong way. Samsung Knows this phone is BS yet they continue to sell it their customers and expect for you to pay to have it fixed. Funny thing...Samsung made sure to not have a Galaxy S7 ACTIVE. Samsung is a total RIP OFF!!!

I'm seeing all these comments about how the phone isn't as tough as people were lead to believe among other issues. I've had this phone for around four months now and the only problem I've ever faced with it was the occasional stutter. I've dropped it at least five times now with a majority of those being from around three or four feet and all I have to show for it is minor scratch on the back. From my own experience this phone is tough as hell and performs like a champ. I would definitely recommend this phone to someone whose looking for an excellent smartphone that isn't afraid of a lot of abuse.

We've had the phone for 7 months and it was dropped in the bathtub. Now it doesn't work. Both At&T and Samsung say it's not covered because it's not a manufacturer defect. So I get to continue to pay for a phone I can't use. Sounds like false advertising to me. If I knew this before, I would have purchased a less expensive phone.
