So i just bought the note 2 a few weeks ago and desided to give me brand new never scratched mind condition S3 to my girlfriend.In 5 days she dropped it between the elevetor crack and fell down 9 floors !!!
When we finally found the phone (thanks to the elevetor guy) i checked the phone several times in detail and found that the only thing that was broken was the glass in front of the screen the screen worked perfectly (i could still use the phone btw touch worked) .
Samsung i love you..
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3ae1cwm6z6ugx4j/20121024_153106.jpg heres a pic of the phone (cant upload to xda for some reason..)
So she dropped her phone through the 1inch gap between the floor and the elevator....really??

Cool, a Skrillex test: one hell of a drop! :silly:
(Apologies to XKCD)
I dropped mine to a hard ground from normal standing height and I thought it was bad enough until I saw yours.
Anyway mine just got some unnoticeable scratch and works perfectly.
That kind of robustness could only be found in older Nokia phones. :good:
We wannt see pics.... We want pics.....with the elevator crack and the screen !!!
Hmmmm sorry I don't seem to believe your story, I smell troll

Impossible. The Elevator crack is too small..and i dont think that the phone drops exactly into it -.-
Such pessimists, I've seen old school elevators where there are couple inch gaps and you can see all the way down. I believe the guy, and if it's fake, with a mind like that, he should be writing literature

I think I believe him!
Well, kudos to Samsung, I suppose. The only weak spot on our phone is made my Corning. (>_>)
I love Samsung and I believe S3 is pretty resistant. Depends on how is dropped. But she should had very bad luck and dropped the phone on the bezel in order to fit that space between elevator... that's why I want to see the elevator.

dropped mine on the treadmill @ 10km/h...shot out pretty quick...thank God for screen protectors lol...
Dropped mine from a pub roof, survived with minor chips off the corner,
As for the elevator, did your phone grow wings on the way down and did you or the other half take any funny looking tablets before this all happened?
I think u have had way too little sleep

9 floors? really? is someone willing to perform a Myth Buster? i surely wont because due to physics, there would be more damaged..unless it had on an iron man suit.
my friend dropped his while walking and the phone bounced and flipped many times, the battery cover popped off and the bezel was effed. messed up part about it, it happened right after he purchased it from the phone store.

There is often a lot of crap at the bottom so it would have had a softer landing than say outside where rubbish has not accumulated.

...and it survived like a boss. Only a small scratch on the back cover.
My iPhone had a much less drastic fall and was destroyed.
Also dropped my Note while cycling. The silicone case took all the shock so my Note is still in a perfect state.

haha, btw, i also like your survive like boss analogy!. but certainly my note is more lovely!!
my note fell twice already. once from a normal table down on the hard ceramic floor and once from the bed down on the wooden floor. not a scratch. having previously owned the HD2 i've come to expect that kind of endurance from a smartphone, and the note didn't dissapoint.
U guys r lucky. I dropped my note once and the top has a small chip. Heavy phone = larger impact

Well I dropped once on a ceramic floor while forgot that my headphone cable was still attached as was pulling it and it literally flew off lol and second time on wooden floor ..My note is like as new hehe Though using a hybrid case..
So i bought my xperia z on friday, (well thursday night as i working in the phone industry) and decided to test the hype....
So i had my phone im and out of bowls of water (about 15 times) bounced off walls, dropped from above my head several times onto wooden /tiles/concrete etc.
And to my surprise the phone with stood all of the attempts to break/water damage it.
But i noticed the phone needed to be charged so i unplugged the rubber seal to charge it and once finished decided to show off again to my friends( forgot to mention that i was at a birthday party drinking heavily) dunked the phone back into the water and it went crazy.
I FORGOT TO PUT THE SEAL BACK IN.....
. So my phone was water damaged..
As i was able to do an insurance.
So all in all, i have never attempted this with any other phone in my life (this was a first) but i was highly impressed with the resilience of this flagship from sony the xperia z....
There wasent even a mark on the anti shatter film that is on front and back of the handset.
So bottom line is that if you are prone to accidents or just not good with phones in general. THIS IS THE PHONE FOR YOU AS TESTED TO THE MAX BY ME...
Just to note that the camera was perfect the whole time leading up to the forgetting to put the seal in...
I also got a few cool photos from under water...
So thats my story.......

That possibly could have helped. Haha.
Funny enough it didn't die.
I was still able to turn it on and bluetooth my photos that i had taken from the party to the new phone..
It did restart a few times and had like water marks on the underside of the screen near the charge port..
So presently suprise it still worked.
But i wont be doing this in a hurry again.
But good to know that if i spill a drink/use it in the bath and drop it down the toilet it would be fine.

I understand you might work in the industry, so do I, you must be a manger at a store with authority or something similar, as I know for a fact if I tried to exchange mine on the same basis as you did my manager would not allow me too....mainly because as soon as head office received it, they would charge the store the full cost of the handset for returning the phone which was BER. This charge would come out of the store's bonus profit meaning every consultant would be effected....pretty harsh for them when they had no involvement!
But cool story anyway bro! :good:

Yeah... And while it's built to be a bit more shock-resistant than most phones, it is NOT built for wall-throwing and such.
It's quite impressive it survived that... But this is pretty much warranty fraud if you sent it back as faulty.
I have the otterbox commuter, it's always on. Tonight I took it off to clean it and found this. Is anyone else getting this, I was thinking maybe a random heat spike. I honestly don't recall any blunt force throuought the day. I have NO idea how this could have happened

You would think a dent that severe would have some mark on the case.
The metal is pretty strong. Definitely had to be some pretty significant force to cause that.

Reminds me of the time I was out on my mountain biking and got cold hands so pulled my gloves out , at the same time my phone also came out.
Hit the concrete did at least 30 flips and slid across the floor 10 to 20 feet.
I walked over to it expecting the worst. There wasn't a single scratch on it . The case had stood up proudly.( cheap one )
Then I read on this forum that folks have smashed the back glass just by putting it in there jeans pocket.
Seems like some devices maybe have a better build quality then others.
We must be the lucky ones.
Also from the U.K maybe they ship better phones here . Ha ha
