The test involves dropping the phone on its front, side and back from a height of six feet.
According to Allstate, the side-down drop produced the least harm with minor damage.
The rear drop shattered the rear panel with “raised glass across the right side of the gadget.”
The press release also said that the rear panel bent outward.

The release suggested that because the buttons were still usable, the phone might be repairable.
