Is the iPod touch screen strong?

It's possible but I have been reading posts where people have cracked the screen when they dropped their Touch/iPhone. The glass isn't shatterproof.

 

My stupid hoodie pockets are so shallow that it made me drop my ipod 3 times on a hard surface and nothing has happened

 

i have heard so many things about ppl dropping their itouch from 1foot away from the pavement and it cracking the screen so i would recomend a good case or just be REALLY careful

 

... yet.

Damn dude, get a case or something. 4th time might not be a charm.

 

He wears a hoodie - say no more.

 

strong like bull.

 

They are unbreakable.

 

The screen is great and very strong but !! I do have some minor scratches on it ( carrying together with my keys ) also I´ve dropped a couple of times and got some small dents on the edges .

So don´t use it as a frisbee

IF they are as strong as the iPhone (no pun intended) they are quite resilient check here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czCCavcnNd8 its one of the stress tests. Clearly shows it can handle some abuse (shock or fall-wise, not scratching-wise I think they don't have the same resistance to that). BTW, sorry for not narrowing down the link, don't know how.

face first on to concrete! 3ft

 

so yeah.

actually my dad ran over my touch with his truck. I thought it was a goner! But actually the screen is so strong that it made another touch appear! I have two now!

 

Care for pics ejej do you literally mean that it cracked in two pieces?? Anyway.. sorry dude, loosing any Apple product is terrible.

They do crack

I dropped mine in the airport the other day and it landed on the corner... and this happened:



I just got it fixed by iResQ for $130... a pretty big price to pay. One second it's fine, then the next $130 down the drain. I got the iClear and it's working really well and comes with a screen protector. I definitely recommend getting a case for the iPod though as it is not completely unbreakable as other people have said.

Shep

 

This is why I am no longer interested in the iPhone. I can't imagine having to baby my daily-use cell phone the way I do with my Touch.

 

Ipod touch

Ipod touch I thought was great when I first got it. And I still like it, but the quality is not so good. I have problems with the screen, it doesn't always work, sometimes you can't turn the volume down or you can't click play or pause, it kinda freezes. I dropped the stupid thing about a foot from the ground and it cracked in three places and it is so hard to get ahold of apple for warranty information. Overall I would NOT recommend it, it's a bust in the ass.

 

It'll handle most everyday bumps and grinds, but it's not indestructible. See this http://www.willitblend.com/videos.aspx?type=unsafe&video=iphone3g

 

He probably stole it off some little kid. Be careful what you say though- he's probably got a knife and will 'shank' anyone that questions him!

 

Its not that hard. All you have to do is get a rubber case and it will be fine. Ive dropped mine multiple times while it was in the case and its still perfect. Also, I do not have a screen protector, the case leaves the screen about half an inch above the ground when it falls.
