I dropped my GS1 several times on concrete and there is only one little scuff on the silver on the bezel. The back of it is only slightly thicker than what the GS2 has. They are just well built phones. My Blackberry Storm fell onto the concrete for the first time as I was getting out of my friends Impreza and it shattered to pieces. That was the distance from my waist sitting in a car to barely standing up and it fell. Total piece of junk lol. I have done that twice with my GS2 onto gravel (not so hard, but harder than grass) and nothing. It's also been pretty baby proof too. I let Ezio put it in his mouth constantly while it's on and he has banged it on to the carpet and still going strong.

In my defense in the past 4 years (smart phone using period) I have only dropped my phone a total of 3 times. The GS1 I dropped while answering my bosses call while hanging from a roof (DirecTV job) and luckily landed in the garbage can, and I dropped trying to hurry up and setup my PA. The 3rd time was dropping my GS2 on the concrete. The rest of the time I always forget having my phone in my lap (passenger) and I get up and it falls. When I'm driving I have it in the center.People seem to drop their phone a lot. I can safely say i've never dropped my phone once.

Thats just the normal charging cable, with full size USB. It's the Mini USB adapter which I think is europe only.
I wouldn't be able to do only 5000 texts, but that plan is still much better than mine. I pay 25$ a month for 250 minutes, unlimited text, and no data.Just bought a new sim only contract for the new iPhone 5. The new IP5 needs a new fangled nano sim thanks to apple *yawn*. But to get a new nano sim on my current contract i'd have to pay £5, drive all the way to town into a Three store (My carrier is Three) get all my current sim info transferred over etc. Too much hastle.
I'm just cancelling my old sim only 1 month rolling contract and getting a new better one out.
600Minutes
5000 Texts
All-you-can-eat data + tethering
£17/$27 a month. Pretty good deal in my opinion
What about the Galaxy Nexus? The Razr Maxx is also a good option so long as you don't plan on modifying it.
I am personally not a fan of HTC due to their locked bootloaders .
Carnage, I get a huge discount through verizon and my new job, plus, I like buying new. XD

Only 5000 texts ? **** dude, are you socialite or something ?
Thats 166 texts a day. The only time I got through 166 texts in a day was when I was flirting with some girl back in high school, and that was for only about a week
Normal day to day life I send like, 2 or 3 a day. Sometimes none. Sometimes 20 or 30 if i'm organising something with friends or whatever.
