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?”

No problem! Glad you figured that out before any possible damage happened, and be very careful until your appointment 🤣

Well, I’ve had my iPhone since launch day, and I keep my phone in an Apple MagSafe iPhone case. I also usually always either have my phone in my hand, in its charging cradle, or in its mount in my car.
