motorola droid phone reviews

phil here with android central. we have thenew moto z droid force on verizon. this is the exclusive one for verizon and it's gotthe shatter shield. the idea is if you drop it the display is not going to break. it'snot going to crack. the phone might well quit working at some point. it does not guaranteeagainst that, because obviously you're jarring things around. it's not shock-proof, but theglass should not shatter. we're just going

motorola droid phone reviews , to drop this thing and see what happens, andwe're going to keep dropping it until something happens or until it's just too damn hot anymore.so are you ready greg? i am ready. here we go. drop numero uno. that landed onthe back. it did launch google photos, so

there's that, but it totally still works.you guys on facebook, you can see that. it still works. drop number two. right on theface. i'm definitely starting to scratch up the sides of this thing, but the front isjust fine. drop number three. god, that sounded really bad. greg, i don't know to break thisto you, but it didn't break. it's still going. it is still ... yes, it's working. it's not... i'm getting some pock marks on here. it doesn't look good. i'm not going to want totake this phone home to mama after this, but it has not cracked. it's still working. theedges have been in better shape. here we go, drop number ... what am i on,four? oh, another one right on the face. i'm starting to sweat on it. that's getting alittle gross, but it still works. i definitely

have some little indentations where like tinylittle rocks have gotten into it, but- [inaudible 00:02:01]. yeah. look, the calendar still works, thebuttons all still work. no problems there. drop number five. i think we might have gottenit that time. i think we did. yep. oh, wait. i felt something. i do feel something. it'sbuzzing at me, but the screen is no longer lighting up. let me just hold down on thepower button here for second and we'll see if maybe that resurrects it. this could beit for this one. the good news is that it has worked exactly as advertised. the glassis not shattered, but the rest of the phone ... i think we just like unhooked something,because it just buzzed like it's rebooting,

but there's definitely nothing on the display,as you can see. take your time. i think that's it. we got five good dropsout of it, and look, this was drops straight on the face, not just down on the side, soit's abuse, but it went through five before it died. again, it did exactly what motorolasays it will do. it protected the screen itself. the screen has not shattered. you're not goingto want to drop this thing over and over and just be done with it, but it did not shatter.they do say it might well quit working, and in fact that's what happened, but it didn'tshatter. there you go, shatter-shield drop test onthe moto z force. facebook, see you guys later. everybody else, see you later. phone, seeyou later.
