OK so here's the story -- picture a bar...a large bar -- now picture 5 large bars with 5 different stages, combine all those bars/stages together and you have the over 40,000 square feet that make up 115 Bourbon St, a bar located in Marionette Park, IL. So that's 40,000 square feet of danger for my MT4G.
So what happened was, this girl I met asked for my phone to put her number into it since it was apparently easier than telling me her number (not). So now I had a decision to make....very attractive girls phone number/risk the danger of letting someone drunk handle my phone, or just pass and move on. So of course I decide I'll take my chances. Sure enough, just as she finishes adding her number after I guided her, she drops my phone. It hits hard... the music was very loud, but I swear for just a moment, everything was silent and I could hear my phone hit the smooth concrete surface.
Now it gets worse -- after it hits, of course the battery ejects and now I need to find the three pieces that used to make up my MT4G in a dark bar with people all around me. Of course...the floor isn't clean either, and there are puddles of alcohol. The main phone part was easy to find, second was the battery (black on black smooth concrete floor...so I got lucky here).....the last piece is the battery cover - and JUST as I see it, some other girl wanders RIGHT over it. She was wearing heels....thank God the heel part did not come down onto the battery cover...her toe part did.
After finally figuring out in my drunken state how the hell the battery goes back into the phone, I was happy she powered up again.
So, onto the damage results: The impact took place on the bottom left corner of the phone. Screen did not crack. The battery cover is in no way bent from the girl who stepped on it. The point of impact has some scuff marks that cannot be seen easily and feels just as smooth as the rest of the phone unless you run a finger nail over it. So, this white plastic frame holds up pretty well and hides damage well. The battery cover does have some light scratches on the left edge...but not bad considering someone stepped on it and drove it into concrete with their foot.
