For what it's worth, I accidentally flung my Framework 13 across several stairs of a lecture hall. All in all, a 3 meter drop on an arched trajectory with the lid closed. The device has not been damaged except for scratches.

I wouldn't repeat this on purpose obviously, but I came away with the impression that Framework builds are not particularly brittle.

I would not consider a single anecdote about (no) damage from dropping to mean anything at all as there is always a very high variance with that. For many devices you can drop them dozens of times without any major issues or you can get unlucky once.

Sadly I pulled mine off a desk by the cord with my foot and dented the top right corner bending under the power button slightly breaking it so had to replace the keyboard, top and bottom case. That’s fine, happy I fixed it myself but just an anecdote to the opposite. ;)
