(Oh and I had a MBP that was under recall for battery fires, CATCH fire in my bed when I was asleep. (Thats not a joke, that is really fn sad that people at Flextronics (who use to build a bunch of stuff for Lockheed as well) just killed themselves.) I just feel bad for all those kids in China who died at the assembly line to make these worthless products requiring suicide nets. What sucks is that I have called phone repair places what to do with them all, and they say they are all worthless. I think I have several more strewn about my tech graveyard. I think Ive gone through ~25 phones? I have a stack of several right here: - plus the one I took the pic with. (This was also when I was flying a lot to asia, and so many phones had lanyard brackets. I berated Jony Ive (I sent him an email) and told him that the lack of a lanyard bracket was BS. I dropped it and broke it because I hate cases, and the iphone is so damned slippery. I have dropped and broken so many fn iphones - once, I had just picked up a new phone and went to dinner where the restaraunt had concrete floors. Ive had every iPhone since launch upto the 8s+ For me, that scenario is less likely so I don’t bother with thick cases. An external case can provide some cushion to dissipate some of the impact energy to reduce the change of deformation. That is most of what I’ve experience so I put on a thin case for that. For face plants, just a tiny rock can focus the energy and crack a screen that might otherwise survive the fall.Įxternal cases provide protection from scratches and scrapes in low energy falls. Of course with sufficient height and impact, the structure cannot diffuse the energy enough to avoid severe deformation and breakage. That means that in 8 out of 10 basic fall scenarios the phone has a good chance of surviving. Falls on the back or face tend to shatter the glass. Falls on the corners or edges tend to just scratch the case. The phones are designed to distribute the forces and survive most falls, but there are ways that the phone can fall where it is very hard to prevent damage.
