I strapped mine to a motorcycle and subjected it to sun, rain and dust for a few months. The GPS interface was baked into the screen, but it kept going. It even flew off the bike at speed once. I never had a phone fail from abuse.
But I had much dumber failures:
- Walk on a log to get a better picture of a lake, slip, and drop the phone in freezing water. Took multiple weeks to regain access to everything.
- The humidity presses buttons in my pocket. Too many passcode attempts, iPhone factory resets itself while abroad. Lost a bunch of unsynced photos that time.
