How well has this protected your phone from drops? I've seen a successful drop test with Cruzerlight Bugdroid but prefer Diztronic's design.

I've dropped it a few times. The Diztronic case has definitely held up. A few scratches here and there but nothing that has torn the case or permanently alter it. The phone stays well put in the case as well and has yet to pop out. I have NO complaints with Diztronic cases.

So far so good. Although it has not yet fallen from a height of more than 2 to 3 feet.

It's a really solid case in my opinion. I have dropped my phone several times during school, and nothing ever happened to it. Even though I have had a good experience with the case, I would still recommend being careful because your experience may vary.

Well my phone is still in good condition after dropping bear the pool from my wet hands and stay safe

I've dropped my Nexus 5 once so far with this case on it. It fell from waist high (approximately 3 ft) to a smooth hard tile floor landing face(glass) side down, and did not sustain any damage that I can see, and has worked without issue since. My wife has a Nexus 4 with the equivalent Diztronic case on it, and she has dropped her phone 4-5 times from approximately waist high each time, and her phone has never sustained any visible damage, nor has it ever malfunctioned.

Good question! I drop my phone frequently and so fat, so good: total protection!

It is very snug - it keeps the profile of the phone slim without a lot of overhang. I don't believe this is the best case to do drop tests with, but as far as protecting the phone from scratches and minor drops, I believe it's fine. I haven't had the flap loosen, but I've only had the case for one month now. Also, invest in some good screen covers - they are cheap and worth the extra protection. My last phone was in really good shape and I got nearly $200 when I traded it in at Apple on the 5S.

It functions quite well so far. I don't drop my phone as much and I don't have the case in 24/7. There has been times where I dropped my phone with the case on and nothing has been damaged. My dad on the other hand drops his phone at least once a day, whether it's a hard fall or soft fall, and his phone is perfectly fine with the case on. Overall I think it functions pretty well. The case does add a bit of weight but you will eventually get use to it after a while. I have small hands/wrists and it felt heavy at first but I eventually adjusted and as I used the case on my phone more it does not feel as heavy. It only adds some weight, nothing to major in my opinion. Hope this helps a bit!

The side guards usually don't fit in a case and usually fall off within a week anyways. I generally leave them off now. I never did a drop test but I repeated dropped my phone (in a case) and the only damage I ever noticed was a few dents on the film that recovered over time. Love these things. Worth every penny. IMO

Umm it seems to work good I mean don't swing it around crazily like but my mom did drop hers (after a while) and it broke the corner of what the phone attaches to it but now I have to get her a new one, but she loved it! So it was really worth it but just make sure it's closed and everything should be fine ! I hope you'll enjoys yours as much as my mom did!

I purchased mine in February but it's really performing well. I bought 2 at the time to test them and am actually using the inner case of the Spigen NeoHybrid with my leather case. I get extra protection in case I drop my phone.

No, these cases, imo are better than other companies out there. I've had my case for 1.5 yrs. No issue except the hole for the head phone jack is a little small. I just drilled it out bigger. I have dropped my phone several times, normally on to hard floor, still have not broken the phone / screen.

Well..while getting out of my car I've dropped my phone unto the pavement and it bounced around a bit but the case seemed to have protected it that's for sure. No cracks, dings or scratches. I'm happy with it!

So far, so good. Small drops seem fine. I had the 4S version, too. The corner of that case chipped off on a large drop, which protected the phone perfectly. I replaced the case with the same model.

I got mine at the beginning of this year and I am always dropping my phone. So fartit has gotten small cracks on the sides but that's from me dropping it from my truck onto gravel a few times.Not gonna lie, my case is a little banged up but my phone is fine, which is the ultimate purpose of a phone case isn't?

The previous one I had from an actual verizon store did not withstand harsh impact. I dropped it a few times am my screens cracked, front and back! But with this one, it's been pretty good. I've had it in water, heat, and dropped it only one or twice and it's worked perfectly. It depends on how well you take care of it as well, my last one was white and got dirty and scratched fast.

It works well. I've dropped it several times and it has remained unharmed and am not as careful as I should be. The case front is not so thick that if you dropped something very heavy on the phone it might still be a problem, but normal bumps of life and some clumsiness should be fine. I've dropped the phone on the sidewalk, hardwood floor, and grass without any damage.

Officially yes, I've dropped mine twice on asphalt while getting out of a car and both times my phone came through without a scratch. The drop was so hard that it completely knocked the cover off the phone. So you can see how that makes you wonder if it's really doing it's job. I wonder if maybe I just got lucky?

I have a lifted Chevy and its been dropped from in my truck to the pavement and my phone is just fine. That's the highest its been dropped from but I have dropped it quite a few times and my youngest son has thrown it a few times around the house. The case has served its purpose well.

Just to let you know, Mine was not in good condition when i got mine, but that was just design issue. I can not tell you how many times I have dropped it and frankly I don't care what kind of damage it does or doesnt do to the case since I knew immediately upon coming out of the box that I would have to replace it soon. That being said, It has held up to drops better than I had expected. Every time I drop it, I still look down to check that everything is ok with my phone. I believe it has stood up to this because the rubber coating on the inside of the case stops most of the forces that would normally shatter the plastic case around it.

As far as I can see The Diztronic is just plain ugly and tacky. That design WILL make the phone look bigger because the back side wraps around with the same color and material. The beauty of the Spigen Neo Hybrid is the different material and color of the sides and the back. That design is very well thought and tasteful. And I already test it by accident when I dropped my phone. It bounced nicely and the cover and the phone finished intact. I already bought two of different colors. The Spigen Neo Hybrid is my choice, it is perfect.
