      That’s exactly my point. Different people have different needs, so while OP is right that there should be phones for themselves and yourself that address the fact that a significant portion of the population drop their phones regularly, my own needs follow a different hierarchy that benefits from a separate set of features.

      The fact that phones are all kinda just the same, with any changes made to one model frequently rippling through to other models from other manufacturers in time, is an issue. The customization to phones shouldn’t only apply to external features like cases and dongles.

      Me too, and I feel like I’m pretty careful. But when you’re always holding/moving a fragile thing, accidents happen over time
