A:AnswerI've dropped my phone several times and no damage. The phone fell straight to the ground and I only mention this because if the screen hit the edge of a counter or something else that was hard, it's possible the screen could get damaged. There is a lip on the case that prevents the screen from hitting the ground when there are no obstructions on the way down. The case is very simple to put on and take off, but it is secure once it's on the phone.
