depends... if you dont use the keypad, the chances are low - get a screen protector to protect from scratches and you should be fine. if you use the keypad, the chance is very high : My screen broke when I was sitting down at my desk, and had rolled into the edge of the desk (and not hard either). What happened was that the keypad bent (but didnt break) inwards, and crushed the screen. Because the pins in the keypad obviously extend as this crushing action happened - the pins concentrated all that force on two or three points of the screen - giving the screen no chance. Had the keypad been off - the force would have been spent on the edges of the phone (as the screen is recessed into the body) or uniformly across the screen, and I strongly believe the force in question would not have been strong enough to break the screen if spread out in this manner. if you read earlier threads, my experience doesn't seem unique either - the keypad just isnt safe in this manner. With my new one I now use it without keypad, and with a screen protector - and I feel much more confident about it. Ive dropped it into the desk once or twice, that sort of thing, and it is very very solid... |
