dropped my phone

abrian — Wed, 21 Jan 2015 23:26:42 GMT

Hi guys, I dropped my phone my phone on a hard ground earlier and one of the corner piece broke out. Is there anyway I can fix this in sony store? I can pay or whatever and also does it lose its water resistance? Photo will be added once I figure out how.

Only you can tell what is "functioning" right. Does it seem to function ok? I would say the water proof function is indeed affected. and as the nylon corners are part of the midframe it's not possible to buy just a nylon corner. So the entire midframe needs replacing which will void the warranty if you or any unauthorised person attempt. Best get it sent to Sony.

Here is the image, I don't think its badly damaged.
After since the phone seems to be working fine but perhaps the internet is a little slower than usual but that might be just signal problems.
Any advice? I do not want an bumper or any kind of case, thanks.

Looks like the bumper corner took all the impact of the force.

This wont affect the waterproof. this bumper is made for drops like this. It protects all the glasses and fully takes The Force itself. You can't buy them separately tho, it is connected to the frame so if you really need that part then contact sony they might change the frame for some cash.
