Would this protect the iPhone if it was dropped?

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 did drop it once from a seated position and it protected my iPhone, but then again that was on carpet.

I would say it depends on where you drop it. I dropped mine on the hard wood floors at my house while standing up and it was fine.

I would say no. It is a nice case but not made like the high impact cases that are rubberized and sturdy. This is more decorative.

Hi, yes I dropped my phone and the screen protector shattered the phone remained completely intact. Awesome buy!

The case is made of a fairly stiff rubber. It will protect the phone from scratches but I don't think it would provide as much cushioning in the event of a drop as some other cases that use a softer silicone for their inner shell. Having said that, I have never dropped my phone in this case before. It looks like others are reporting it does protect against drops.

As far as covering the screen, no. However, the case itself has an overlap on the front of the phone that is raised slightly. If dropped on a flat surface, as mine was, it will prevent the screen from contacting anything. If dropped on anything that is raised, such as a rock, corner of a step, etc., it will not be protected. Hope this helps.

No it doesn't. The purpose of this glass is to protect your screen from scratches and dents. It would support your screen to a certain minimum level and may help avoid the cracking depending on the impact however, it should not be solely relied on to provide drop protection as it does not have any shock absorbing element. Unfortunately there is no 100% solution to prevent phone screens from cracking or breaking in the event of a drop/fall.

I did but it landed on the back corner. There was no damage. I can't say for sure that it will protect it from all drops or falls but it would certainly help protect it.

In my opinion, this case will protect the phone if dropped in most cases. That's not to say, however, the case itself will stand up to many drops as well. The plastic trim that goes around the case will likely break if the phone lands on just the right spot.

No. But it has a raised lip completely around the phone, so if it falls on any kind of a flat surface your phone glass should not break. This is the 2nd phone I've used this Ballistic case on, have had several drops with no breaks. You could put another cover on, but I've not felt the need to do it.

well luckily I haven't dropped mine yet but I am accident prone too :) It seems like it would protect it pretty well but I'm not sure how well it would do if it fell face down. (The edge does stick up a little so its higher than the screen)

I would say no. Its well made but its not made for protection if you drop it.

I can't say it will protect your ipod from all drops, but I've dropped mine twice and have had no problems. Although the case might come apart if the surface is to hard.

I don't think so. Case seems to protect well. I've dropped mine hard twice. All good. Hard getting off and on though.

I would say yes. This screen protector will protect the front of the phone from scratches but that's about it. You will need a case to absorb any type of "impact" from a drop. Silicone soft vases work the best for absorbing the shock.

Yes, I have dropped my phone many times and the case protected it. But, the case itself will break.

Not really, it doesn't have a soft rubber coating to protect the device if accidentally dropped.

I am not using this case for that reason. I don't trust it for protecting my phone if it falls. Being that I live in NY and it is cold and snowy. I bought an otterbox commuter. It can and will protect your iPhone.

No if your phone fell the screen wouldn't be protected at all and I wouldn't be surprised if the case broke.
