While I appreciate the scientific rigor behind the tests, the six foot drop test isn't very informative because it's not a typical drop height. That's not to say that no one drops their phone from a six foot height or higher, but I didn't really need an "official test" to tell me that if I drop my iPhone horizontally from a height of six feet it was probably toast. Much more typically, drops are from a desk or table onto a hard floor... or drops from hand-height onto a floor or sidewalk... or drops from a pocket while standing, sitting or getting out of a car. What all these common drops have in common is that they range from 2.5 to maybe a 4 foot height. It would be great to test how these phones hold up in heights that are more typical.
