My T230 fell of my pant pocket. Straight on to the tarmac. Only minor scratches. Next time it fell off my hands photo the wash basin while washing my hands. But the phone is ok.

My mum managed to drop her phone right into a canal once, funnily enough we didn't find it. It was an erricsson, one of the oldish black ones. Rxxx
I've dropped my t610 countless times, and it's just not damaged at all. Highest is from about 2-3m. In fact i often throw it around and catch it, when i'm bored, as i've got good hands, and it doesn't really matter if i do drop it.
It's skidded many times as well, whilst playing football and stuff.
Sadly, my CD's players haven't been as touch. One fell from a bunk bed i was in, listening to it at night, and when i woke up, it wasn't working at all. Managed to return it though...
They are so damned sturdy. |

four years ago i was still using one of those nokia 3310 ones. too bad it wasnt insured.. i left it on my hoodie pocket and totally forgot about it. i went to the toilet, pulled my hoodie up and *whoosh* down goes the fone into the bog. good thing i wasnt able to do what i was about to do yet so i just stuck my hand into the water and picked it up. yeah, it was dead before i got to it.. |

i used to always drop my nokia 3310 and Motorola t191. i borke the antenna of my t191 and the 3310 did not have any scratches.
I was casing my friend, he tripped and fell on his Sony Ericsson p800. It was luck that the phone was a gift. and he was only using it because he didn't have a phone and no one elce liked it. |

My friend, after having his dinner was washing his hands when his T230 slipped outta his pocket and fell straight into a bucketful of water. The phone completely submerged. But he took it out quickly and kept for drying. The phone is now ok. But its keypad lights don't work now.

Had my P800 on the string (Lanaird or however its called) and my friend was swinging it round and round. Unfortunally, ive never attached the string correctly so it came off and my P800 went flying up and came crashing down. About a 3 story drop. Screen broke and I had to buy a new housing and I dont think it works as good as it used to but it still works...
As for my K700. Lots of small falls. I have a bad tendency to spin the phone in my hand like a bar tender spins bottles on his palm. Its really fun. Until the like 30th time you do it and drop it... |

My T68i fell out of my breastpocket twice in one day. First it fell on hard concrete while I was jumping to access a walkway then it fell down an escalator. Couple of scratches and the phone has slowed down considerably.

falling on the floor is not as bad as falling deep into the water.. |

I've got a classic, well documented case of butter fingers; I've dropped my ngage like a 100 time ) and each time it forgives me )
After each fall, I check the games to see if the graphics are just as sharp, and so far, I've been lucky, I definitely can only use really sturdy phones |
