Has anyone dropped their Note 5 yet? My mom dropped it today from sofa level height, and it fell on our hardwood floors. Hardware wise it looks fine (had a pretty light case and screen protector on it), but I'm worried there is some software damage or internal parts damage that can't see. I just get very worried about my phones being damaged which is why I try to take very good care of them...sigh. anyway, should I be worried? How durable is the note 5?

Oh my gosh - I did drop my new Note 5 - last Saturday - taking it out of my back pocket - the phone angels smiled on me - no screen or case damage at all.

Phone is covered with a Spigen Clear crystal dual case and a Zagg screen (not tempered). The phone must have hit at precisely the blessed impact angle as I have dropped other phones which hit far less hard and which were severely damaged.

Lucky and loving my Note 5!!!

Same exact thing happen with me and I dropped it when I was on vacation at seat level also, my s-pen came out just a bit, but it's fine no scratched, dings or dent. All good with everything including Samsung Pay!
 
I DROPPED MY NOTE 5 TODAY FOR THE FIRST TIME EVEEER😢😢i was at the gym hitting chest (YOU KNOW GETTING THEM GAAAINZ) anywho while i was on the bench and it slipped out of my pocket..it must have fell only like 1 foot off the bench. I have a otterbox defender case so the phone is ok. BUT the spen seemed to pop out and it broke..like the top lil clicky part was cut clean off...DISAPPOINTMENT TO SAY THE LEASt ON THE durability...idk what to do at this point..should i call samsung and complain to see if they will send a new one or does anyone know where to buy a new one at???

dropped mine today from waist high onto stone at a construction jobsite. few scratches on the upper right corner but i dont care....
 
Dropped mine bout 3 feet. I have a sturdy case on it but of course managed to ding the area around the S Pen. The S Pen also flew out...luckily it wasn't damaged. As far as internal damage don't think so. I dropped mine bout a week ago and I haven't had any issues

Dropped mine out of my truck when choosing the door. Bounced off my running boards and landed face down on the street. Scared to death I turned it over, no damage! Love Spigen cases and tempered glass screen protectors.
 
Took mine out of my otter box to explore the feel of it a bit without the case. A friend stopped by so I slipped it in my pocket and when I sat down it slipped out of my pocket and bounced off my tile floors. There is a ding on the metal frame and the rear glass cracked across the corner. I have insurance but sucks to pay another 149$ for cosmetic reasons but I'm going to do it in case there is internal damage too.

This is the first time I have ever broken a phone.

Jeez that bites! Curse the moment you decided to admire the Sexy Beast!

About 2 days after I got my 1st note (Note 3) I rolled over it. I was taking grocery out my car and thought a can fell out, but it was my phone. My son yelled out that I had rolled on my dog's tie out so I put the car in gear and rolled a couple inches...CRUNCH! My brand new Note 3. True story! Thank goodness for insurance.

My deductible is $175. Why is yours so low?
 
Dropped mine from about 3 ft, phone was fine with a tpu case however my s-pen ejected and cracked at the tip. I had to order a new one off eBay for $20 and it works as good as the original.

Check out this extreme 900ft drop test and it still works!

It used to be that like two flagships ago, but I'm pretty sure it's $175 now. I could be wrong.
