One thing I think I'll miss when I upgrade is the seemingly indestructible nature of my Nokia E5. Sure, it's a smartphone of a bygone era, but it's full of dents from various drops, it's been soaked through several times when riding in the rain and simply sitting in the pocket of my shorts and it just hasn't batted an eyelid. The battery will happily last 2-3 days of medium usage, too.
I fear that handsets like the One X or SIII will simply refuse to take such abuse.
