How many broken phones have you had?
I just recently mowed one of mine. How creative were you when you broke yours?

I've never broken or cracked a phone. My children are a different story.

I washed one in the washing machine once, like 12 years ago. It was a Motorola Krazr.

I had just got back from Afghanistan, and I was at a party in the bathroom and dropped my Krazr in the toilet (luckily there was nothing in it). Naturally it didn't work so I took it to Verizon the next day and it turned on when I was in the store. Got a new phone anyway but I loved that phone.

First thing I do when getting my phone is put it in a slim as possible but protective case with a bumper and shell combo and put a tempered glass screen protector on it. Never broken a phone but I've had scratches and nicks on them from drops.
My last phone, LG G2, developed a dead space that went from side to side about half inch thick that would register touch, I guess it was typical for that phone. I just went onto Ebay and ordered a new digitizer and replaced it myself for $30. Couple years later it started acting up and would show only a very small display that would only let you use a weather widget and make emergency calls only. Not sure if it's because it eventually developed 2 cracks in the frame because you could temporarily fix the issue by bending the phone in a certain way, but it was 4 or 5 years old at that point and I just got a new phone. Probably still end up spending another $30 on a new digitizer with a frame to see if that fixes it and use it as a backup, still a pretty capable phone. |

I’ve cracked the screen on at least 3 phones that I can recall. I’m rough on cell phones

Retired 5 years ago and am now paying for my own phone. I have broken two and drowned two. It has gotten kind of expensive. I can identify that awful sound when they land and know when they have broken by the sound. Both times they landed in my gravel driveway falling out of my pocket. Jumped in the lake putting the fishing boat on the trailer, ooops, remembered phone was in my pocket. Then another day couldn't find my phone until I checked the bottom of the hot tub. |
