My Galaxy Note 8 Broke Again
-
I looked to find a very durable example,went with Pelican Voyager. Telephone vicious out of handbag when I picked something
up off floor while shopping.
A couple days later, l noticed the diagonal cracks-thought it was on the case. Removed the case to find the "Gorilla Glass" damaged. Anyone else had similar experience??11-24-2017 09:11 PM

Sure, there are tons of reports from people whose phones croaky when dropped despite having a case. And in the other direction, many people take dropped their phones without cases and had no damage. Cases probably brand harm less likely, simply dropping the phone is still risky.

My buddy had his Note 8 for 2 weeks before he bankrupt the front and dorsum glass. His fault though. These all drinking glass phones are slippery. He didn't have a case, sat down on an open up back chair and his phone popped correct out of his pocket. Landed on the edge and broke the front and back.
Merely dumb luck. There is a shop past the states that replaces any phone screen for $100 which is better than the insurance price.

Mmmmmm, let me see if I sympathize this. Glass phones (front and back) and the drinking glass sometimes breaks when dropped. Imagine that. How interesting that people get surprised about that. :-P

Effort an Ottebox Defender case. It's expensive ($45, unless you can find a real one for less - at that place are ripoffs that aren't as skilful) but I've had phones in Defender cases dropped and thrown without a problem. Even though there'south but a plastic screen shield, If yous drib the phone confront down, it's all the same protected past the case itself. (And it's cheaper than one trip to the repair shop.)

Just dumb luck. There is a shop past united states of america that replaces whatever phone screen for $100 which is better than the insurance price.

I'k sure this could save everyone a few bucks.xi-26-2017 xi:01 AM

Overnice to know. Y'all have a link to their website?
I'grand sure this could save everyone a few bucks.It's a small "ready it" store virtually 30min from me. My brothers kids are trying to keep the store in business singlehandedly lol. I'll notice out is they have a mail in service too.

It's a pocket-sized "fix it" store well-nigh 30min from me. My brothers kids are trying to keep the store in concern singlehandedly lol. I'll find out is they have a mail in service equally well.

Try an Ottebox Defender instance. It'south expensive ($45, unless yous can observe a real 1 for less - at that place are ripoffs that aren't as good) but I've had phones in Defender cases dropped and thrown without a problem. Even though in that location'south only a plastic screen shield, If yous drop the phone face downward, it's still protected past the case itself. (And it's cheaper than one trip to the repair store.)
The Defender is the most protective case bachelor, the Annotation 8 version does not have the included screen protector which is a very good affair in my opinion

Endeavour an Ottebox Defender instance. Information technology's expensive ($45, unless you lot tin can notice a existent ane for less - in that location are ripoffs that aren't as skilful) but I've had phones in Defender cases dropped and thrown without a trouble. Fifty-fifty though at that place's just a plastic screen shield, If y'all driblet the phone confront down, it's however protected by the example itself. (And information technology'southward cheaper than one trip to the repair shop.)
You lot obviously haven't owned ane for a notation 8 or s8 for that matter. The scurved screen phones practise not get the plastic protector upward forepart.

The Defender is the near protective case available, the Note 8 version does not have the included screen protector which is a very good thing in my opinion
There are a lot of imitation Defenders that look nearly identical and much cheaper on Amazon or Ebay. Heck you can purchase a few different colors and nevertheless save money. I would take bought one but they were not out before the phone was out and I wanted cases before pre orders shipped so I splurged and paid $60 at Verizon for the Otterbox.

Great instance if yous like to carry something inside of a suitcase information technology's a big phone already

Well, you'd hope information technology could survive a fall at chair top... we must exist talking talking nearly 18" max off the ground
... Corning does annunciate a video dropping their glassed phones at five feet. 
Simply it's truthful because of these curved edged screens and backs practically making information technology impossible for the frame to take the brunt of the striking whatever advantage of GG5 is out the window... might as well be candy glass. If you lot're one to drop your telephone now and then... IMO this phone is not for you.
Option the best case that suits you and hope information technology offers enough protection.
My buddy had his Note 8 for ii weeks before he bankrupt the front and back drinking glass. His fault though. These all glass phones are slippery. He didn't have a instance, sabbatum downwards on an open dorsum chair and his phone popped right out of his pocket. Landed on the edge and broke the forepart and back.
Just dumb luck. There is a shop by us that replaces any telephone screen for $100 which is better than the insurance price.

Does otterbox pay you lot to market the defender to us? Every comment you've made in whatever of the note 8 forums has only been most the defender and how it's the best out there.

Well, you'd hope it could survive a fall at chair tiptop[.] we must be talking talking about eighteen" max off the basis[.]
Hands 24": xx" for the chair, plus 4" for the pocket.
Corning does advertise a video dropping their glassed phones at five anxiety.
Corning advertises that GG5 survives 80% of drops from that height onto a apartment surface. And so that leaves one out of five drops that it doesn't survive. Plus if it falls onto a abrupt edge or indicate (such as a horizontal leg on a swivel-chair base) instead of the advertised flat surface, the impact is profoundly concentrated.
Even with a example, these phones should non be dropped.

Even with a case, these phones should non be dropped.
even with a instance the telephone shouldn't exist made of glass. like having a drinking glass auto you lot tin't drive for fear of breaking.

watched mine fall from desk height the other day and panicked equally it was going downwards. managed to mitigate the fall somewhat with my shoe so that it was a soft drop and so a drop to carpet. there was still the "thunk" when it hit, merely took my case off and no worries.

I bought this phone knowing it was glass, I knew I would have to exist conscientious with information technology. If your prone to dropping phones this probably isn't the telephone for you. The phone should or shouldn't be made out of glass is not the issue, it's what you demand to buy that meets your needs, if you need a strong drop resistant telephone, the notation viii isn't for you.
Samsung tin't win, people complained about the inexpensive plastic backs, the cheap fake leather expect, and now the glass phones. If they went aluminum, then people would complain wireless charging don't work, it scratches like shooting fish in a barrel, it dents if dropped.
Dropping electronics is never a good thing to practice, they might intermission. If yous want to take your chances with the note 8, buy a good case and don't drop it.

information technology's what yous need to buy that meets your needs, if you need a potent drop resistant telephone, the note viii isn't for y'all.
and isn't it a shame that Samsung took that choice away from the states, if you are a note user. should not exist forced to purchase glass because you use that model. and if y'all are, the glass should be improve. simply really? drinking glass? great for selling more than glass and that's almost information technology. more costly for consumers, more coin from cleaved devices for insurance and
Samsung.there is NO OTHER model of telephone for me as a concern user. AS a business user, drinking glass may exist pretty, just it is very slippery to hold, and heavy, and as every storefront in the world knows, information technology breaks easily.

and isn't it a shame that Samsung took that selection away from us, if you are a notation user. should not be forced to buy glass because you utilize that model. and if y'all are, the drinking glass should be better. but actually? drinking glass? great for selling more glass and that's about it. more plush for consumers, more money from cleaved devices for insurance and
Samsung.there is NO OTHER model of phone for me equally a business user. Equally a business organisation user, drinking glass may be pretty, but it is very slippery to hold, and heavy, and every bit every storefront in the world knows, it breaks easily.
No but a OtterBox defender instance would requite the protection needed, and there's other cases. My point is, all phones can intermission being dropped. No matter what Samsung does hither, everyone won't be happy

The S8 Active is a nice looking phone and looks to be rugged. If I had to deploy and Android phone to users, I'd choice that one.

The telephone should or shouldn't be made out of drinking glass is not the issue, it'southward what you need to purchase that meets your needs, if you need a stiff drop resistant phone, the annotation 8 isn't for you.
Samsung tin can't win, people complained nigh the inexpensive plastic backs, the cheap simulated leather wait, and now the drinking glass phones. If they went aluminum, then people would complain wireless charging don't work, it scratches easy, it dents if dropped.
Dropping electronics is never a practiced thing to practice, they might suspension. If you desire to accept your chances with the note 8, buy a skilful case and don't drib it.
I don't sympathize why people complained about the back existence plastic or faux leather when almost anybody slaps a case on and doesn't see the back anyway.

I cracked the dorsum drinking glass on my milky way s8 in a pelican case, the adventurer I recall. I was upset when I noticed. So I went and bought an Otterbox defender. I probably won't ever set up it. Just gonna leave it in the case. Still non happy about it!!!
