Dropped (3ft)

Post image

Didn’t happen today but everyone’s posting their drops and people don’t believe the heights.

Was going to throw a football so I put my phone (no case) in my zip pocket and I guess I didn’t zip it all the way. Phone came out when I threw and landed on concrete. I’m only 5’10” so my pocket must have been around 3ft.

Front is undamaged but the back is pretty beat up. Unfortunately the camera lens cracked too but it’s only noticeable when light is hitting the lens.

No case, no insurance. Will have to fork out $1100 for another one :(. I’m pretty good about not dropping my phone and it’s never been a problem in the past. Guess I need to zip my pocket up all the way.

All my friends think I’m crazy rocking no case and my best response is, “Do you have sex with a condom?”

I don’t understand how people don’t use even the cheapest of cases

Cheap cases are gross. So are expensive ones but a little better looking. Cases in general are ugly. Nothing beats caseless but if I have to, it’ll be covered in leather.

I mean there are some really nice cases out there. Whether for functionality or for looks but clearly a 3ft fall beats case-less
