I've only ever broken one screen on a phone, and that is not so broken that it is unusable. I appreciate other people break screens more often, but never breaking the screens is a fairly common situation. Given that old iPhones continue to trade at a multiple of a cheap android, you could probably pay for at least 2 screen repairs with the difference, and you would be paying for those well down the line. The economics for somebody who is not exceptionally clumsy probably still supports buying the cheap android. That probably doesn't help the repair shop guy too much, but making the poor support his dying business model doesn't sound fantastic on the ethical scale either
