A coworker of mine left an easter candle next to his phone, and within an hour or so it had melted onto the camera and caught on fire a bit. amazingly the phone and camera still work! SE will replace the casing for $100.
Notice how the M2 cover has shrunk

Wow, all that damage and it's still working! Phones can withstand a surprising amount of abuse - I've revived a T610 that was chewed half to death by a dog before, and some pretty rough looking phones!

K800 survives trial by fire. R310 survives trial by water.

Just thinking about it but the battery is fine as well, its reassuring to know that if you drop your K800 into a barbeque, you don't have to duck and cover immediately to avoid being burn't from flying parts of your burning phone. You might get a chance to rescue the phone before any more damage.
