And while HTC (although Google was selling this phone, the actual maker was actually a smartphone manufacturer, called HTC that's based in Taiwan) was still investigating the cause of the problem which the phone was totally bruised in the AMOLED screen and cracked in the screen cover, there are many speculation speculated that the phone wasn't fit in our pockets, which was usually filled with wallet, keys, and maybe a Swiss Knife. Although the testing of the phone (there's a video which illustrate how's this phone was tested in human environment, I've it here) was conducted professionally, there's still unknown reason for the phone's cracked and bruised screen.
The owner of the phone, CNET Crave, described that before the phone was founded to be totally bruised and cracked, they're charging it on the table and then they went for lunch. The first speculation was that a dog jumped over the phone and made it broken. But the evidence was known to be not enough for a such damage. How could it be, charging a phone could cracked the screen cover and bruised the new AMOLED screen? Just wait the answer... Anyway, just to note that the cost of repairing the damage was about £180 ($270, huge!), including parts, labor, shipping and VAT.
