I think I’m pretty careful with my phones. In the last 20 years I’ve broken only one. But they are easily dropped, I do it pretty often. Just because it’s something I’m always holding and moving around.
I’m not trying to claim superiority for never having dropped a phone - I understand that different people have different needs, and one of them is a phone that can survive frequent falls. However, I also recognize that features that myself and others use regularly are often removed from models that emphasize durability, whether or not their removal is actually helping, or just cutting costs. So I don’t want to push phone manufacturers to focus so much on that one feature - that is important to some, but not to others - that they end up removing features that are equally important to certain people.
