I dropped my iPhone the other day. I didn't like it. It seemed to happen in slow motion. Sure, iCloud would have a backup of most of my data but, as an app developer, even a day or two's loss of use of my iPhone would be difficult, and expensive. Fortunately, the phone survived. But I vowed to use a more rugged case for day to day operation.
When I was at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, in January, I saw an impressive demo by G-Form. They dropped a bowling ball on a bag of M&M's protected only by one of their cases. Repeatedly. The candy was undamaged!
There are some videos on their web site showing some similar tests, like a hockey player slapping a G-Form protected iPhone at a goalie.
