Dented my S3 - not happy.

PistolPete · 21 Sep 2012 at 17:04

I have a Rock case on my S3 and it's in a leather slip case and today I manage to drop it getting it out of my pocket and it just happens to land on the only 1cm2 worth of unprotected phone and put 3 small dents into the edge.

Not happy :mad:

Was expecting a motors thread.

maybe you shouldn't take your phone out your pocket after applying lube

HecFam · 21 Sep 2012 at 17:31

That's why I've taped a meter wide stretch of carpet to each one of my shoes, so that when i drop my phone, it is gently received by the awaiting carpet.

Billion dollar idea.

It's a phone..... mine probably has like 5 or 6, I don't use a case or anything.

Why does a scratch bother you so much :rolleyes:

My first motor cost less than an S3. Even accounting for inflation... maybe. Though it came with dents to begin with.

Crafty · 21 Sep 2012 at 20:05

OP must be wrong, surely with the S3 "poor build quality" and being made of plastic it exploded into a billion pieces ?

no ?

oh.

For the avoidance of doubt this is a sarcastic post

My motor cost less than an S3 & my motor looks like a Golf ball it's got so many dents as we had that Freak hail storm with hail the size of Golf balls a while back & all the cars got battered.
My car is a Golf that looks like a Golf ball.

OP
I am actually gutted for you mate as when I have things mint they have to stay mint, It boils my **** when I mark something that's mint.

First one is always the hardest, it gets easier

Username apt - just lol at the rolleyes. The guy can be upset at scratching his belongings if he wants.

Sin_Chase · 22 Sep 2012 at 13:12

Count yourself lucky it's just a dent and not a shattered screen.

After making sure my S2 was very well looked after, I thought sod it with the S3 I'm going to use this like a phone, just a small case and no screen cover!

Dents a couple on the edges! I'm ok with that, not even sure when they happened.

Screen.. one mark about 1cm going across H downloads when typing, bit sad but still its ok!
