Will it also help defend my sd card from thieves?

Didn't you say the Note 2 is an all around great phone? You back tracking now?

I dropped my note 2 the other day and nothing happen. I was fortunate it fell on its back. But if you drop pretty much any phone on its screen, it's prone to break.

Hell, the Nexus 4 cracks and that's due to the heat.

The NOTE 2 is a great phone and I think better built than the Galaxy S III which feels cheap as fukk. I would have to check the note 2 again...I know the OG Note felt ok in terms of build quality.

The Nexus 4 with the glass back is a bad design...LG should not get a pass for that either. That was them trying to replicate the iPhone...which has shytty build quality as well.

I will say this, from what I can remember? The Nexus 4 feels more durable than the GNexus

I still take the note 2 over any phone but I wont front if they had sonys or htc build quality shyt woulf be that much better tired of cheap plastic. It didnt even fall that far but I realize now I may as well take the case and screen protector off.

They are pretty much constructed with the same materials. My coworker has the S3 the only difference is size. They still use the same plastic, and gorilla glass 2.

The iphone 5 is a pretty durable phone. The rest of them glass made phones will break regardless of any fall.

I remember people biitching about the S2 because it was made of plastic but it was the most durable phone at time. Hell, my old azz Nexus S was a beast in terms of durability and it was a Samsung phone as well.

Sony, Nokia, HTC, hell even LG lately has had more durable phones than Samsung. The shyt is fukking pathetic man.

Glass = BAD
Plastic = BAD

Why not build a solid fukking phone like the Lumia 900/920, HTC EVO line, The new SONY phones, and the LG Nitro? This shyt shouldn't be this fukking complicated and its annoying as shyt that you buy something that retails for $500+ and it breaks easily.

Yeah the iPhone 5 is better constructed than the 4 and 4S because they changed the back. That whole glass nonense was a shytty idea from the very start. Do you have an S2 nearby? I do...it feels much sturdier than the S III which feels like if I step on it the right way it would snap in half.

what kind of case did you have?

 

[verbalkint]

Brehs I cracked my note 2 screen from top left to bottom right corner. What is tmobile ascurion return policy looking like I cant have a 5.5 in cracked screen. If not ill sell this and cop a nexus and pay early termination. I do have insurance.

Just say the screen stopped functioning.
worst case they call you on it and charge a $150 deductible. I've returned cracked and bricked phones and always got a replacement.

Anyways why pay etf if you can use the nexus 4 on tmo?

I dropped my Lumia 900 on to the concrete and nothing happened to it. Evo as well, I also dropped my LG Nitro pretty bad too and guess what? Nada

I hate to bring this up again, but its a reminder to not have a bias for any company no matter how many units they push.

Samsung build quality = shyt

The two best companies when it comes to build quality has to be HTC and Sony. I have dropped their phones so many times with cases and without cases from different heights, the phones still work great with no major damage. I never had any of their screens crack or the body get damaged except for scratches.

Why lie? Don't you still have to return the phone if you tell them the screen stopped working?
