Gorilla glass fail!!!

[scarryman04]

So, I dropped my phone last night at work and when I picked it up and turned it over I seen my screen shattered. It is spider-webbed from the top left part of the screen to the middle right side. It still works like a champ though, I was really surprised!! Has anyone else shattered their screens? I've dropped it many times before but this must of been the breaking point, literally.

I have a friend who broke his in his backpack. He had a screen protector so I think he still uses it that way.

I've dropped mine a dozen times at least, no breaking at all. One time I dropped it, it gouged the metal bezel and even bent it into the screen a little but no breaking.

Mine has been cracked for months. It landed on the lower right corner and is shattered pretty well. Still works perfect. I was going o buy a new glass and replace it myself, but I have just not done it yet, and the fact I kinda want a new phone anyways.

Sucks that happened...I've dropped my D2 at least 10 times and all I have to show for it is a bent bezel

Forgive my ignorance, but does the OG Droid have Gorilla glass?

 

[scarryman04]

Yes, all motorola Droid phones have gorilla glass.

I thought it did. But Gorilla Glass is supposed to protect you from scratches, not dropping on the floor.

Yeah, actually it's supposed to do both. I watched a dude demo the stuff and he bent it, I mean come on regular glass can't do that!!

I did not read past your OP. Gorilla glass is Glass! It will act like it too. It resist scratching better than anything I have ever had, been naked for 4 years. I dropped a droid and destroyed the GLASS because it fell from my truck, lifted over a foot. It is what is is, not Jesus. Drop it, break it. Key it, not so much...from your opinionated a hole.

Maybe if you would of read past my OP you wouldn't look like such a d-bag...because I was referencing how it is shattered and still works like nothing is even wrong with it...good job cool guy with a truck, lifted over a foot...and I really hope you haven't been naked for 4 years, don't your neighbors think your a little strange?

Relax broskie! No point to, I have researched the G glass in depth. I know its thresholds. But it is glass! Drop it, it acts like glass! Gorilla or not. Gorilla glass stands out to average wear and tear, and is hell of a scratch resistant beast. Drop it though, it chips, I know, I have. That is it, cover it with plastic, and prevent a spider when dropped ,but plastic is a piss poor scratch protector cause the G glass does already....douche not applied.

PS I sold the truck and got a Legacy AWD, much happier with a boxer.

Yeah, I'am aware that it's glass...just stating the fact that it is spidered and works fine! Regular soda-lime glass would of just shattered and fell into a hundred pieces.

I was disappointed with my boxer engine...1969 Beetle...

I just hope whichever phone I get next has Gorilla Glass.
