Nokia X2 Takes a Bullet to Save Owner's Life

Too bad he wasn't streaming, it would had been a real killer shot. No pun intended.

No one took into account the bullet could have been a ricochet of a poll or etc.
and by the way the back and front concaved/convexed, that bullet did not stop, it was probably barely slowed down - with the case and battery case bent that far, that bullet went right through , it also looks like the bullet was rifling at full speed by the way it moved the case, which means it was not a ricochet, no phone will stop a fully riffling bullet, and this one didn't . It went straight through, at full speed. No debate. Whether it missed the man or not is a different story

The title of this article should have been "Nokia X2 trying to make its grandfather Nokia 3310 proud"

Looks like the bullet came from behind the guy and hit the screen first based on the petal look of the hole on the back, battery and the inside hole. unless hes using the front camera.

If the gun used 5.56 ammo then after the bullet impacts anything hard, the bullet quickly expands which gets rid of all of it's aerodynamic properties, thus if it makes it through, it most likely wont be going straight.

From the image, it seems that he had the device away from his head and a bullet came from behind him, then hit the phone, so even if it was a AP round from a 50 cal, it would have not hurt him. (either that, or he was live bloging with the camera aimed at him)

Did it hurt?

Looking at the picture, looks like the shooter is behind the guy. Who needs enemies when your comrades shoot like that?

Low end Nokia products are durable indeed, they are easy to use and had a long battery life.

So people are shooting and I want to gets pics with my phone? at least I would stand out there with it in front of my face to do so. Hold it out in a hand while the rest of me is shielded, is much more likely. If the guy did as the story says, sounds like he's gunning for a Darwin Award

This phone caught a bullet and is now unusable? Damnit Nokia, you said you'd make them tougher!

Nokia should make iPhone cases.

Must be hell of a bullet to blow a hole in that phone...
