Has anyone dropped this phone accidentally yet? How effective is the bumper?

Let's see some drops in the car with no issues. And off the bed thought the case would be scratched as it ran along the wall. But found no damage to the case or phone. Also I use a Spigen GlasstR screen protector.

It's a rubbery bumper. It isn't really a case. It just goes around the edge of phone. It doesn't bend all the way, but it is flexible.

The bumpers mostly protect the corners of the phone. It is not as protective as a sturdy case, but it will protect a phone if it is dropped

It has for me; I've dropped it several times on tile floor. It covers the back of the phone and all around the edge. I really like it.

The bumper is really flimsy part! Its a two part case. First goes the rubber part that wraps around like a normal case then u put on the bumper. There is a place where the bumper fits in and the only part close to screen will be the lip from the rubber case. Once the bumper is on the case it looks awesome and helps pressing the buttons. I think there is also reviews on youtube.

No. I actually still have the plastic on the front. Its plain but it works! I dropped my phone from a pretty high distance on accident and it is fine. I thought by the way it hit the concrete is would be at least scratched. Nothing!

I have no problem with it. I have bumped and dropped my phone and it is all good

Ive dropped my phone quite a few times, my 2 and 3 year old have done about everything to my phone (excludinf water contact) and its in great condition. So, i say yes. Ive been very happy with this case. Good luck!

Sorry, I have not dropped the phone since I got the case. I can tell you I dropped and broke two phones before I got the case. It seems to protect what needs protecting, is light weight, and sleek. So far, I highly recommend this case.

Good question! I drop my phone frequently and so fat, so good: total protection!

No, however, I have dropped it once, no scratch, dent, and phone is fine. But, not meant to be protective.

I think it's pretty good. The corner bumpers are quite thick, and the case cover flap is quite padded. The case fits very snugly, and does not fall out. Someone bumped into me on the bus with the phone open and I had a firmer grip on the front cover than the phone itself (because the close tab is actually really easy to hook your finger around) and the phone did NOT go flying. I've only had mine fall 3' onto carpeted flooring which isn't much of a shock but I feel quite comfortable. I have the Galaxy S4 version.

I would say it gives it some protection. This is not a heavy duty case for those that are rough on their phones and dropping it all the time. I really like this case as it makes the phone less slippery and less likely to drop it. Also the corner bumpers absorb the shock if you drop the phone and it hits on the edges. i have dropped it face down from a short distance and it was fine. However, i am very careful with my phone and a gentle user so this level of protection is perfect for me.

I drop my phone A LOT lol and i havent had any breaks. It doesnt have a wrap around the screen tho so it is left unprotected.

I have dropped my phone once or twice and it hasn't damaged the phone. It won't be as protective as an Otterbox because it is less bulky but I have heard from the bestbuy mobile reps that this case will protect the phone pretty well if you don't want the bulk of an Otterbox. Hope this helps!

I haven't dropped mine, but the case deff feels durable and sturdy. You should be safe against minor drops.

I am pretty clumsy and have dropped the phone few times, but there are absolutely no signs of any damage. I think I have owned this phone and case for about three months.It fits my belt carrying case very nicely. I own the gray/black one. Hope this helps.
