Battle Scars *OUCH*

So I'm trying hard to keep my phone from getting even one scratch until my cases come in, which should be any day now.....
....then today I freakin' drop it on the concrete by accident.
I feel like $#!t ...my heart sank.... damn it!!!
BUT, on the bright side I am very surprised on how well it took the hit. The phone dropped and actually rolled a couple of times, yet it only marked up the plastic/metal looking trim that goes around the phone.
By any chance do you think the rim piece would be available later for a replacement part? Gosh I sure hope so. I'm desperate to go rip off the trim at the T-Mobile store
...I keep telling myself....it could have been worse right?
Bottom line: For how hard it hit the concrete, I'm impressed...since it was dark I was thinking it was going to be way worse, until I held it to the light to see the damage. Thank goodness for not a cracked screen....
BTW: I have the 3M screen protector. If it wasn't for that it would have for sure had some mean scratches on the screen....sigh..

Ouch.. I did the same with my new Touch Pro (current phone) and it also ended up with some dings on the sides, but that phone's partially metal with a plastic screen.
Since one of the frequent criticisms of this series of phones is the build quality, glad it looks like the Vibrant's made pretty well after all if it can survive that with only cosmetic damage.

you should put a warning in the title, those pics are way to graphic.

Yea I agree that the Vibrant is well made. I've read a lot of some people commenting on the material and all, but obviously they have no idea how well the made it is. Heck, I'm kind of glad it wasn't heavy and bulky.....
"THE heavier they are the harder they fall..."
Kudos Vibrant....just can't wait to put a case on it to mask the scars....Soldier.

I know brother....I'm slowly getting over it though.... I can't wait until my black case comes in so I can put it on. At least I won't see the scars....

I dropped mine on the sidewalk few days ago and it just scratched up the top of the back lid so I just swapped it. My heart stopped for 2 minutes and I was afraid to look at my screen because when I dropped my hd2 it shattered the screen

Does the 3m screen protector reduce the quality of the SAMOLED screen a lot, or make it sticky?
Those pictures are nasty Hope you get your case soon!

dam that hurt me. i just got mine last night, hope i dont do the same

A gel skin would cover those up nicely. I decided to get one in the first place because even though I love the feeling of this phone without the skin on, I hate scratches/dents a lot more.
I had a bad track record with my G1 too... dropped it like 4 times

You should link me to where you bought your screen protector. I got Tmobile generic ones, but they suck, so I bought one from eBay. What I've got was this super thick, weird feeling protector, leaves too many bubbles, sucked. Bought another one, which is identical to ones you buy at the store, works good, but doesn't cover the bottom part of the phone.

At least you can cover it with a case, unlike scratches on a screen.

Ouch! That looks like it hurts.

The best one IMO is the one from clearfreak, which is the one I have. Just make sure when applying it, to follow their directions. You have to spray it with water, wet your fingers and squeegee the water out with the little tool it comes with.
It's made out of 3M and you can't even tell it's on. All the other screen protectors like the generic ones really mess up the touch response. It's not as responsive from what I've noticed. Stay away from chEapBAY if you know what I mean...those are all pieces of junk from china, hence 5x protectors for $0.99US

Same one I have and I love it....the 3M stuff is awesome, thank goodness if it wasn't for it I would have definitely have scratches from the fall.
You should write them and ask to exchange your screen protector. I actually got mine swapped out because I had some annoying lint on the sides and couldn't get it out so they swapped it.

Very interesting you asked that because I was curious at first as well. However, I must say that once I did put it on, it didn't alter the quality at all.
As for it being sticky, I assume you mean on the surface when you glide your fingers across it right? Well...it depends if your hands are dry or not....it really doesn't bother me and I think it works fine...the only time it may be a little resistant is when your hands are sweaty. I think that would go for most all screen protectors though...

Has anyone managed to scratch the screen?

Hi, I recently got a Desire Z and I am trying to determine if a screen protector is necessary. I've already seen a thread arguing the issue in more general terms, but my question is simple:
Has anyone here scratched their screen from normal use?
I have a 2 yr old BB Storm and the screen is still flawless without ever being protected. I just want to know if I can expect the same of the HTC.
Thanks.

Cell phone screens are definitely stonger than you would think but it wouldn't hurt to put one on right? You know, as long as you don't keep it in a pocket with coins or keys in it. I haven't scratched mine in the time I had it without the screen protector but I feel much better with it on.

How about a real test. Let the knife fall point first about three feet onto the screen. This way it can simulate a fall. Lets see if the glass doesn't chip. My HD2 that the same "indestructible" glass. It chipped, not cracked, the first time it feel face down on the ground. Don't take a chance, slap a screen protector on it.

I agree I also had a hd2 and was able to put some scratches on that beast. I haven't put a screen protector on the g2 its been in and out of my pocket for about a week still flawless

I managed to scratch my g2 inside the first 2 weeks. Not sure how, probably something I had in my pocket.
In contrast, I went about a year with the N1 without scratching it. I am not sure if it is mere chance or if the G2 has a less scratch resistant screen but that is my experience to date.

i never put a screen protector.
no scratches what so ever.
but of course i take care that there is nothing in my pocket together with the phone

First time I got the G2 I slapped on the Tmobiles special screen protector.
The feel is different,smoother, and you won't tell if you have it on.
The screen feels sooo...like wow smooth.
Promise you,go check it out comes with 2 inside.

There is a definite scratch in the middle of my screen, deep enough that you can catch your fingernail in it. The nice thing is that it's not noticeable when the phone is on.

I had the same type of scratch, deep enough that you could catch your fingernail in it, but it was higher up on the screen. I exchanged that G2 though when it stopped reading SD cards. I actually ended up fixing it before I sent it back because root came out and I was able to flash a new rom over it lulz.

Just get a screen protector from stealthguards.com
Their screen protectors are like anti-finger oil or something like that, cause when I swipe my phone with greasy french fry fingers, I barely see the streaks of grease on the phone.
And it's for free, with 2.95 shipping.
Took about a week to ship to me, and i'm up in Canada, EH.

My wife and I both have had G1s since preorder, neither with screen protectors, mine in my pocket (usually with nothing else) and hers in her purse with god knows what, and neither of them is scratched at all.
Says something for HTC's choice there, but I don't know that it's the same glass.

I haven't had a screen protector on my G2 since I bought it almost a month ago and I keep it on my pocket. Screen is still perfect.
Didn't have a screen protector on my N1 either and there weren't any additional scratches from when I bought it (had one small scratch from previous owner).

I have not managed to scratch my screen and my phone has met mr. hardwood floor once.
It's easy to prevent scratches/chips. Don't drop it, don't put it a pocket with other stuff, keep it away from kids/dogs/cats/parents/gfs/police/etc, don't lay it face down and don't go all high school girl and pitch your phone at a wall when someone makes you angry.
There go, AbsolutZero's guide to a scratch free phone lol.

just ordered one myself, couldn't believe this was free

I'm surprised my screen hasn't gotten scratched yet! I dropped it on a concrete patio with bits of broken vehicle glass on it, I was replacing a window and got carless and knocked the phone off the seat with the door card as I was putting it back together. Also dropped it at work, which is a big retail store.
What has gotten scratched and damaged however is the battery door. That I find to be a bit annoying, now it looks ugly.

It technically isn't.
They make a profit from "shipping".
I got mine in a normal everyday envelope.
Cost them lets say a dollar to ship it up to Canada.
They spent about 70 cents to make the protectors.
Their profit is about $1.20.

Fragile SG3

All these "I dropped my phone" threads is freaking me out.
Why is this phone is fragile? I've dropped my DX several times on Concrete even, it's still ticking along. Someone dropped GS3 30" in carpet floor and screen is f***up.
I'm picking up two GS3's tomorrow, but I'm terrified to use it. Haven't order a case yet. Should I looking into getting insurance? What's the best place to buy Ins. Tmobile store? SquareTrade? Esquared?

Only a few amount of broken phones compared to the millions that have already shipped worldwide isn't something you should panic about.

I think I have seen 3 or 4 total threads like that. Out of possibly 10 million devices sold and several thousand xda members, I think you're just worrying too mulch. Just be careful with your phone, don't worry about it too much.

I take my phone into the gym while I lift and its fallen out of my pocket a few times. Phone hasn't broken yet I'm not too worried about it being fragile

Well...it is a bigger screen. So that has something to do with it.

If it's that worrisome for you, put a nice case on it like an Otterbox or a Sylicrylic Dual Pro. No more worries

I watched the drop tests for the international version and saw how fragile it was so I bought a case before I even got mine. It went on before I even left T-mobile.

I feel my GS3 so fragile. So I ordered Otterbox Commuter for that.
My prior smartphone is a Samsung Captivate that feels stronger than GS3.

Mine actually fell off a 3' shelf today on a hard floor. I have just a cheap hard case on it but it took the brunt of the fall and not the phone. Luckily too it landed on the back. Ugh my commuter case can't get here fast enough

I dropped mine at work, right onto the tile, on the left back corner, from chest height and it literally put the two lightest scratches possible.
Nothing broke, nothing damaged, and scratches you wouldn't notice unless you're me and you know they're there.

Dropped face down from 2.5 feet

Pulled up to 7-11 this morning for some coffee, One was on my lap, parked, opened door, got out, SLAP!!! It fell face down flush with the ground (asphalt). I think I stared at it on the ground for about 3 minutes, before my eyes teared up I decided to face my fears and pick it up. The glass was perfect, no scratches, nicks, or cracks... I was VERY surprised. It fell hard, the aluminum on all 4 corners does have a nick in it, but the glass was fine.... Awesome.

I think because all 4 corners are chipped, most of the force was distributed and saved your screen.

The One X is tough. I've dropped it on my hardwood floor many times, phone still looks great. Tiny dent on the bottom. Still upgrading to a One though, I'll just be more careful.

He was alone, I yelled at him, he cried, I relented. I'm weak like that. Ah well.

Seems the 4 corners of the phone are slightly raised as I dropped mine face down and only one corner has a little nick.
HTC phones have always been indestructible for me especially the screens. Galaxy s3 and note 2 screens are very fragile.

I was just thinking the same.
I'm a fan of the Baseus Slim flip case. It's cheap, good quality and it protects the screen.
I never thought I'd like a flip case but it's actually really unobtrusive and when I'm home I take it out.
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=300885232164
I loved the slip case for the Sensation. It was light, thin, aesthetically pleasing and protected the phone really well. I don't understand why HTC didn't continue making them in that style. They went back to the chunky ones with the pull tab for the One X and they don't do a slip case for the One at all. I much prefer being able to feel the lines of such a beautiful device when I'm using it.
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=180718618384
I would never have a flip case that holds my bank cards though. Firstly it's very nature makes it larger than necessary but you're also making a very convenient little package and advertisement for muggers and pick pockets. Not clever if you live in a city.

I gotta ask you something guys.
I'm trying to decide what to buy. Flipcase, pouch or some clear gel case.
I really want to buy a pouch because I don't want to hide this beauty. So my question is; when do you think people drop their phone most? while talking or while taking it out of pocket? I mean if I got pouch it'll protect it if I drop when taking out of my pocket. But It wouldn't help if it was in my hand (obviously)

I always like pouches. All of my phones look like new when I finish with them.
In my opinion, skins don't protect the phone it's so easy to scratch the screen in your pocket and screen protectors look like ****.
Flip covers aren't ideal either. You could easily get keys or loose change between the screen and the flap, when in your pocket.
I like pouches because you hold the phone as it was intended to be and you view it as intended. What's the point of having a beautiful device if it's hidden under layers of gel, leather or plastic? It's like everyone who has an iPhone is always telling me how beautiful it is and that's why they don't want an android phone. Then I ask them the last time they actually saw their beautiful iPhone out of it's case and that makes them think.
The difficulty I'm finding with the One and a slip case is as I pointed out above. HTC made a great slip case for the Sensation but the last few they've made have sucked. I have a One X slip case and it's huge both on the phone and in the hand. I've tried loads of third party slip cases in the past, with other phones, and the main issues are quality and that they're generally ill fitting. Not to mention they often look like crap.
The reason I started buying official HTC cases was that I was sick of buying new cases all the time and I saw one cheap and decided to try it. I have to say that the quality is generally way better with their own cases and I've bought official ever since (I've owned six HTC phones). This time round though I think they've screwed it up. The official cases for the One are too bulky. I want a tight fitting slip case that covers the top of the phone well but is easy enough to remove the phone from to answer quickly.
You also have to consider the material. When I first started buying cases I really didn't want leather and I bought ones made from textiles but they aren't so easy to slip in and out of your pocket. In fact gel cases pretty much grip the material in your pockets, this could cause you to fumble with the phone to get it out of your pocket and drop it. I say that because it has happened to me before and I had a few near misses. So. Anyway. I ended up realising why it makes a lot of sense to go with leather. It's just as easy to get in and out of your pocket as with no case at all.

Dropped it yet?

Like a lot of people I'm suddenly debating an edge but I'm worried about losing a rim of aluminum or plastic around the screen. I don't do cases and do drop my phone on concrete around twice a year but have never broken anything, am I right in guessing that edge screens lose a lot of durability without a case?

Dropped mine twice, both times onto my Kitchen floor (stone). Not even a scratch, much to my surprise.
Haven't found a case I like yet, and I'm insured, but will eventually get a flip cover I think.

drop it in the toliet 2 times on wooden floor, looks the same as before when i buy it.

That's sweet to hear, thanks!

Dropped my on kitchen floor yesterday thankfully not a mark on it !!

I've had mine for over 2 months, and it's in mint condition. You learn early on that the thing is a bit of a tank, but still manages to be well-manufactured with a premium feel. I've had a few drops thag were hard to look at, but a spray-adhesive screen protector and a flimsy TPU case bought online have protected the phone from any cracks or scratches.

i watched a drop test on youtube of this phone a while back vs an iphone, and although ymmv compared to the video, it did seem like the S6 was pretty tough, it took dropping the phone from around 10feet high before the glass smashed on back or front! I was very impressed.
I want to also highlight how I've gone without a case for the few months I've had this phone, and there isn't one scratch to be seen! Yes it is a fingerprint magnet, but I seriously thought that the back of the phone would look awful pretty quickly, but it's just pristine!

Dropped mine again in the kitchen again no damage thankfully.

Without a good case; this thing is so painful to hands, i mean sharp rear lines. After a long surfing on the hand, it is giving cramp. [emoji51]
And sending an another post. Why?
Because I can..

Yes I dropped mine onto a beer can on the floor which still had some beer in it, this made sure the can did not move. The result of the 3ft fall? the pixels at the impact point are completely knackered, so will need to claim on the insurance when it comes to selling it for the Note 6, as I imagine the phone is probably a write off as it is the screen as well as the glass. Not sure I think much of this Gorilla Glass!

I owned the xperia z and z3 and never managed to crack these once. On the three occasions I dropped my s6e+ it resulted in damage. Why buy an expensive beautiful glass phone to put it in a plastic case?

yep yesterday camera len broken. looks like a right pain to do and looks like camera its self looks damaged too.
