Good to know but I've had some really bad drops onto concrete and tile floors, and my Blackberry 7130e seems no worse for the wear. Granted, most (but not all) of those drops were with it inside a Seidio clip-in holster, which adds a lot of protection, I'd guess. I agree with David.

Got a few scratches but still works today (that was almost a year ago) I dunno, those test seem horrifying for a cheaper phone, but realistically are pretty tame (except for trying to scratch the screen with a key)
