Alternatively, it means a ticker, metal infused glass pane... or there is a shock absorbing layer to prevent all the stress to be distributed through the glass pane. If you take some tools - e.g. multimeters, dropping them from 2m height is a rather standard test for their build quality/durability. Not saying I'd expect most phones to survive that, yet it's quite common to prefer the minimalist, throw away devices.
