I don't know, it kind of sounds like without glue a lot of the kinetic energy from the fall was dropped into popping the phone apart. Were it not able to fail in a reversible fashion like that, there is a chance it could have broken in a worse way.
It has always seemed to me that phones with removable batteries that go flying when the phone gets dropped are likely inherently more robust for that reason. Crumple-zones for phones.
- Cushman 14y agoYeah, I started wondering about that immediately after posting. Not curious enough to try it again, though :)
