technology Have you ever dropped your mobile device?

[~Master~ Button Mash 2,307]

Oh I drop my phone so much. The only reason it's still in one piece is because of the case. Without it, it would be a shattered pile of glass and metal at this point. Haven't dropped my tablet or laptop yet, luckily. 

[TBB Animal 40]

Hell I didn't just drop it. I have had it skid across the concrete multiple times, but has only sustained a single crack on the top of it. It isn't even that big of a crack.

The real question is, who hasn't?

 

I have never dropped my phone.

 

How is that possible Jokuc? Well I am very very careful with my phone unlike...like every single person on the planet.

[SparkBrony 379]

My friends dropped my phone for me. But luckily it's a Verizon GZ One - one of the strongest phones in the world. So....not a scratch

 

But it's still a flipphone, not an awesome-looking smartphone T_T

[Lost 1,410]

I've dropped loads of phones, I would drop them and break them intentionally sometimes so I had an excuse to get a new one, I've dropped and broken every phone I've had bar 2, my current phone (iPhone 4) has been dropped a view times yet hasn't sustained a single scratch (although ive gone though a protective case and the screen protector has gouges in it from my keys), one phone I've dropped countless times and tried to break but it never did was my old Nokia brick, that thing was more likely to break the floor than the floor break it.

 

 

I've also dropped a few laptops, PS3, DS, Gameboy, Xbox... Lots of stuff actually.

If you're talking about the 3310 then yes. That thing is a beast. My first phone. Space Impact, Snake II, Bantumi...

 

My phone: Samsung Star II. AKA the Iron Phone. Fell from 1 story up onto hard tile flat on the screen with no case. Only the bezel is scuffed. Fell countless times in school from pocket height, just scratches on the back cover and estgetic damage. I still love it, although after I got a silicone cover I purposely throw it on rock (I live next to a river mmkay). The only thing sort of major is a deep scratch near the physical buttons because I left it under something metal overnight (can't remember)

I have dropped my phone many times and it still works fine doesnt even have a crack or scratch. The same thing goes for my DS.  Although i have broken 3 cases by dropping my phone ( they were hard plastic not rubber).

[Cuhpcakes 15]

that's good. It's nice that you treat your iPod extra carefully since it was a gift; I'm sure whoever gave it to you would be happy to hear that.

Thank you for your kind recognition!

 

Friends of mine even offered notable trades for my sweet Candy (yes, I just named my iPod). The highest offer was about $200 I believe, but I would not give it to anypony besides those who payed for it; which are my older brother, mother and father.

 

I don't even let friends hold it sometimes, because I just don't want to see Candy damaged!

 

After dropping her in my tub, I decided to not bring her into the bathroom unless I am extra careful.

 

Do you have a mobile device?

[Lightning Fluttershy 1,844]

Yep, but it's a Nokia so it's not like I have to worry about it breaking. I could baseball pitch that thing at a wall and it'd come out fine.

Yeah, I got an iphone 4s. I'm not super careful with it anymore since I've had it for quite a while, but fortunately everything works fine and the exterior is still intact.

The worst accident was me dropping my phone off of a hanging roller-coaster.  It was a blackberry,  when security finally got it I thought it was fine, but it turned out it was broken when I turned it on.  The screen was cracked on the inside and was barely displaying anything sand was in the nooks and crannies of the device, it was just a mess... I still did not learn my lesson

 

Recently we have had a carnival set up shop in a mall parking lot. On a pendulum ride called Street Fighter I felt something come out of my pocket.  Somehow out of sheer determination and strength I kept the objects squished against the seat with my elbow.  When we got off the ride I found the object to actually be two objects; my replacement phone I just ordered about a week ago and my wallet; the two most important possessions I had at the time.  

 

When will I ever learn my lesson? :s

[Rainbow Dash 1,472]

On accident? several times 

 

on purpose a lot.

I know i should care when my Iphone drops but i really dont. Mostly because the darned thing always give me trouble about my icloud account. Sometimes it drops because it doesn't know how to stay on an elevated surface for more than 15 minutes.

[Lady Leopardess 393]

I've dropped my phone alot. Then again I've also have it for.... 6-7 years?  No severe scratches but I guess it just hit right ,so the camera on it no longer works.  My phone is one of those Nokia bricks though. 

 

I feel like the new smartphones don't look as visually impaired friendly ,text size ,so it's not super motivating to get a new phone. Plus I do pay as you go since I only use the phone for rare texting/chatting anyway.

 

I also drop my cameras alot (usually they fall out of my pocket /bag. I have two. The newer one must have had a bad drop and now it's really tweaky with when it works and my older one doesn't zoom in as much as it used to. I'm really bummed about the new one though at least my dad pushing it together right got it to work sometimes.  He's letting me use an extra one he had for the convention I"m going to  , so I need to make sure to be extra extra careful! 

 

Also I've dropped my ipod classic a ton of times, still completely fine.

[Nurse Slava Medik 61]

i have droped my phone like 8 times now lol and my new phone is not that but the screen is cracked it show how go i am  with phones

[Betez 1,734]

I've dropped my iPod tons of times. I dropped my phone I think the day I got it, but luckily I had an OtterBox on, so nothing happened.

[Sapphire Quill 1,186]

I have never, ever, never, ever dropped my phone, iPod, DS, and such,

well if I do I end up going ninja style and catching it at the last second,

but well I never drop my things, I just end up losing them very quickly,

such as I lost my Samsung Galaxy S2, 4 Weeks after getting it,

my PSP got stolen the week I got mine,

and such :/ It's a shame.

I currently have the HTC One that just got released and I'm hoping I don't lose this, or I'll be very sad :/

[Yourmomsponies 444]

Yes. I dont give a crap abot my phone. The thing is like a nokia. I've gotten mad at my phone and threw it at the wall really hard. It suffered no more than a scratch. I dtop and throw my phone all of the time. 0 fucks given

[Red Diamond 549]

I have drop my iPod Touch a few times, but the two times that happened, my ear-buds saved me. The other two times I dropped it on carpet.

[YALL ARE FUCKING GAY 505]

i have thrown my nokia e 63 at the ground and to my amazement it fucking bounced 3 feet high like what the fuck are those phones made of 

[repsol rave 2,963]

i don't just drop it, i actually throw it intentionally XD 

i have this crappy acer liquid phone thingy, and yeah... it sucks. so i handle it the way it deserves

also, if i ever get myself a actual good phone, i don't think it will survive long. i drop those things all the time...

[Pinkie D Pie 1,036]

I have a crappy phone that is so much fun to throw up and down after school and drop it on the pavement and laugh as it falls. Yeah I honestly don't care about my phone and will throw it on the ground at times just to do something. All it has suffered is a small crack on the side that is pretty much invisible...

[Scootalove 10,689]

I think I did drop my phone in the toilet one time, it didn't really go so well at all. Luckily, my phone has recovered from that. Thankfully.

[TheSupremeLeaderOfChaos 1,206]

I pretty sure I've dropped every single mobile electronic device I have at least five times. I've literally dropped my Nintendo DS so many times, it malfunctions. I'm a bit more careful with my phone, but it still has hit the ground hard a few times. I really should try to be more careful, but to heck with it, I guess. I'm accident-prone.

[deadprofile 1,122]

meh....drop my phone all the time.  Has yet to need to be replaced...but then again I am fully against smartphones, and any phone with BIG, can easily be broken if you breathe on it, screens....

 

A phone is meant to call people, nothing more, nothing less in my eyes....so although my phone is cheapy cheapy, it's over 3 years old and is still kicking despite my klutziness....

 

and don't get me started on my computers....

[Gone Airbourne 21,977]

Well duh I have dropped my phone numerous of times... Thank goodness it is a piece of crap flip phone that can be hit by a viking on steroids and still survive.
