Absolutely! Same with Samsung. As I've mentioned before, I typically keep my Galaxy S models between 20-26 months and I've never had the removable back door fail on any of them. Heck, both my original S1 & S3 are still being used and still have their original removable backplates.
Since they moved to the non removable glass backs, I can't see them being quite as durable if they were removable. Funny thing is, everyone used to complain about the cheap plasticky feel of the earlier Samsung models, but in reality they were extremely durable.
