the punishment my old Nokia 5110 took, no phone would last 1 second compared to that. but thats how they are designed now.. 99% fashion statement
i have a soft rubber case on my IPhone, dropped it numerous times and even had it go down the scaffold bouncing to the concrete next level down at work several times....climb down the scaf expecting the worse, but time and time again this cheap soft plastic case does the job in protecting my phone

it might not be the sexiest looking case, but it holds up to the punishment.
