What are you people doing to your phones? Since smartphones started being a thing I haven’t cracked a single screen, and yes I do drop them. Not daily, but it happens. Not onto concrete from the 4th floor either.
Or: Maybe spend more than 100$ on a phone and it’ll actually be fine, cause it isn’t shit?
I’ve been barebacking an iPhone XS since launch and it’s been pretty resilient, tanking a few solid drops. The Batman iPhone 5 was the absolute nadir for every drop causing visible damage.
My mother threw my phone out the window of the third floor once and a car drove over it … I could see all the screen but it was like split horizontally from a green and a red filter the touch worked only on the bottom half so I used to split screen with a useless app just so that the whole interested app stayed in the working area …I used the phone like that for a couple of months till i caught a bad glass splinter still have it in my finger today … 8 years later … I have more stories if you like …
It’s on the tip of the finger so it doesn’t get pushed often and you have to get a specific angle to feal it sting a bit… Never properly found it, being glass it’s so hard to see and those shard are so tiny (something like windscreens with chunks and super small shards… ) yeah never spoke about that either… I feared taking “a beat” from my mother shes kinda old school 😅
I’ve Only ever cracked one screen and it wasn’t by dropping it but by having the phone in my pocket with the screen pointing away from me while I used my hip to push a cart at work. It was only a very small hairline crack but the screen and touch stopped working.

How do you know you still have the glass in your finger? Does it hurt still? Or do you just feel it
