A cover doesnt guarantee that your phone will be protected either. The note 5 is fragile period.

You are fragile, period.


In other breaking news, do not crash your car or drop your laptop...

WTF, i wish these damn morons would stop making crap idiotic videos that highligts their own stupidity and somehow make it the manufactures fault for not providing them an idiot proof trolley to transport all their **** in.

Yes, these things breaks when you drop it, yes, you will drown if you fall into a poll and stop swimming, yes **** happens, take responcibility ffs.

Exactly. :D

haha i have this friend that his natural instinct when he drops something is to kick it... not stop it but kick the thing as far as possible. Its not that he does it intentionally its just reaction. He actually broke a nokia 3315

Lies. My dad's 3310 fell 3 stories once and bounced when it hit the ground. When he picked it up, it was still in one piece and still on.

Modern phones are damn fragile.

Also lies. Old phones always lost their battery when they fell, they survived but needed to be put back together.
Also I broke a 3330 in my school bag somehow (cracked it's screen).

But yeah, these modern pieces of glass are fragile.

A lot of it is down to not having parts that can split up. My wife's Moto G has a replaceable back cover. She's dropped it a few times on concrete and tarmac and the cover shoots off but it dissipates the energy to some extent, helping keep the phone alive.

Same.

The whole front glass and rear glass design simply doesn't work, even Apple left it after the 4S.

Not sure if you were implying this but it's a novel idea! Imagine if a flagship phone was released in descending increments. So like the Note 5, it's released as an initial version. Then the Note 4 is released and they address all the issues and add features so on and so on... Until you end up with the best version of that model -> The Note 1 (dramatic music)...

It's a good PR stunt! You could sell it as the ultimate version of that model.

No, I was just being a clown :D ... but yeah, the Note 4 is a better option than the Note 5 in many respects.
