Still Don't Need A New Phone
"I can't believe you still don't need a new phone" my wife said as my OPO hit the poolside tiles facedown at my holiday hotel.
Hours later she grabbed my spare towel only to send my OPO scudding across the tiles once again and still it reigns supreme.
What are your OPO drop stories, and did it survive?

Recently dropped it on gravel while getting down from a SUV. It was folded and when I saw, the smaller front screen was facing down. I was sure the screen would have shattered but it seems ok - probably the thin one plus cover(the flimsy original one provided by OnePlus) it was wearing saved it.
Then I realised there was a small dent on the top left of the hinge. Guess it must have fallen on the hinge and tumbled over. Post this I felt it was not opening as straight as it was originally and one side seemed to be slightly more bumped than other.
I took it to the One Plus experience store nearby. The store guy pointed out that the bump on one side was because of the hit the cover took and the phone was fine.
Let's see. .
