Just got my One -- Very tough!

[Pew446]

Hey guys, I just moved in from the EVO forum, and I love my HTC One. Not only for the modern look and feel and how amazing it is to hold, but also how incredibly sturdy it is. Since getting my One about a week ago, I've managed to let it slip out of my pocket or off my nightstand about 7 times now -- 5 or 6 of these drops have been in my bedroom which has a concrete floor, usually at about 3 or 4 feet. Half the time it lands on the screen. Despite all the dropping and falling, the only damage is a couple scratches on the bezel. No, I do not have a case on my phone. I do plan on getting one, so any thoughts would be appreciated. I figure the phone will probably break soon (what with my recent luck) if I don't.

Still, it amazes me how sturdy and well built this phone is. Glad I didn't get an iPhone because by this point, I wouldn't have a phone.

You need to be more careful! All it will take is for the phone to hit the ground at the wrong angle and the screen WILL shatter!

Man if your within your 14 days.I would come up with some excuse return it for a new one and get a case immediately for it since your dropping it so much...

I'm happy with my Otter Commuter case - 1 layer of the rubbery stuff covered by a hard shell, less bulky than the 3-layer Defender case.

I have the speck candy shell grip case. They are sold at most ATT stores and are very thin. They are dual layer and protect the phones. Plus it adds a lot of grip and is easy to take off when you want to enjoy this beautiful device naked.
