How far does a phone need to fall before reaching terminal velocity?

How far does a phone need to fall before reaching terminal velocity?

Terminal for the phone, or terminal for the pavement?
Sadly, it seems that "terminal" height for most modern phones is only a few feet...

The size, shape, and other qualities of the phone have an effect on the terminal velocity so it's really not possible to say for sure without a lot more information.
