    At one time I was a Nokia fan. I bought a new Nokia and was talking while driving (bad boy), accidently slipped and dropped it out the window. At 50 miles an hour it bounced and came apart. I stopped and picked it up, put the parts that flew off back on and used it two more years.

    The next three Nokia’s I had lasted about four or five months each before they fell apart.
    I am no longer a Nokia fan and it will not matter if they have 100mp cameras. They took advantage of their good name and started making junk.

    I will keep my iphone.

    I have to agree here. I moved on to Android phones when Nokia fucked up their software (and hardware until the N9) after years of innovative and good phones :/

    I still wouldn't suggest throwing your phones out of a driving vehicle

    @John, 450€ seems like a cheap deal. Newer top-model phones easily sell for that amount of money. Anyway it is in the 1100D+18-55 range

    I still think a scientific study is in order, throwing many different brands of phones out of the window driving at different speeds, to eliminate any statistical errors.
    I'll volunteer to be the driver, everyone send me your iphones and i'll happily send them flying at 200km/h :P
    An awful lot of electrons were terribly inconvenienced in the making of this post.
