When I snapped it back together though:

-It worked fine, and has worked fine ever since (many many weeks ago now).

-Not a scratch! I swear this is true, I cannot find a single mark anywhere on the phone or casing. Nothing.

Unofficial replacement covers for Nokia phones tend to snap much more easily than the official covers, so I'm guessing Nokia uses materials which are exceptionally good at flexing and enduring physical blows.
