Has anyone dropped this case with the phone in it? How did it hold up?

I didn't. I am sure though it's not to protect from a fall on a hard surface (though I've seen iPhones survive on their own).I bought this case to protect from scratches, dirt and wear of being carried in a bag, in a pocket with keys, left in a car compartment or car floor and things like that.Rugged cases are bulky, look somewhat silly and give a protection for something that is quite unlikely to happen, in my opinion.

I dropped mine today on some concrete steps. Had the case on and the tempered glass on the screen. I noticed immediately a chip to the edge of the glass and a small crack near the camera and thought my phone was damaged. Later I remembered that I had the tempered glass on and was SOOOOO relieved to lift off the glass to find it was damaged but NOT my iPhone. Now I just need to replace this accessory. So Happy.

I can honestly say I maybe dropped my phone once or twice & nothing happened. The phone basically sits in the case so edges are raised. Definitely worth the price!

Yes, I have dropped it several times, its a very nice case and despite its slim design, quite good at cushioing any bangs or drops.

It is a pretty case and I think if you dropped it anywhere but the screen, the phone will be okay; however, there does not seem like there would be enough case between the screen and the ground. I would try to get a rubberized case, they seem to do well.

I dropped mine a couple of times in the same day. The last time the Otter Box cracked but the phone was safe. Thankfully need to buy another OtterBox and not a new phone.

Just to let you know, Mine was not in good condition when i got mine, but that was just design issue. I can not tell you how many times I have dropped it and frankly I don't care what kind of damage it does or doesnt do to the case since I knew immediately upon coming out of the box that I would have to replace it soon. That being said, It has held up to drops better than I had expected. Every time I drop it, I still look down to check that everything is ok with my phone. I believe it has stood up to this because the rubber coating on the inside of the case stops most of the forces that would normally shatter the plastic case around it.

Yes....dropped it twice thus far. Weren't really bad falls (in terms of the number of feet the phone fell). However, I can tell you one was on the treadmill and another on concrete. NOT A SCRATCH TO THE PHONE OR CASE. And I have to say again, the case itself is just absolutely beautiful!.

I have a lifted Chevy and its been dropped from in my truck to the pavement and my phone is just fine. That's the highest its been dropped from but I have dropped it quite a few times and my youngest son has thrown it a few times around the house. The case has served its purpose well.

I have dropped my phone with this case and it has been protected. But they were small drops. I don't think it is super protective.

My daughter has already dropped her phone with a similar case. Her just bounced and it held up, she loves it.

Very durable, dropped and never cracked. My niece has had the same case and no issues .

It will protect your phone if you drop it. My son was dropping & breaking his every other month. Since we purchased this, no breaks. Strong, durable case.

I dropped mine out of a Tahoe. Decent height and sustained a few nicks to the case. No damage done to the phone.

Have not dropped it very often. When I have it has not been from very high heights, but the few times I have the phone has remained intact and working with no problems.

Yes, I have had my iPhone for 8 months with this case and I have taken it out 2x and it looks brand new. Also and I dropped couple times and no issues!!!

It's a really solid case in my opinion. I have dropped my phone several times during school, and nothing ever happened to it. Even though I have had a good experience with the case, I would still recommend being careful because your experience may vary.

It's a good case. Never have dropped my phone with it on, however. I think it would protect it well, but if you use your phone in a rough way maybe you should go for a heavy duty case designed for a phone that will receive abuse.
