Even if not using a case, the fact that I can drop my phone over and over again and it keeps working (not even a cracked screen) is perhaps mankind’s greatest engineering achievement since the Apollo program. It’s really impressive.
Less than two decades ago I was carrying my LG Chocolate in my pocket (iykyk) and I gently walked into the arm of a couch. That soft and unremarkable impact was enough to cause it to die a dramatic death.
Technology is wild.
