Should I Spend $1k on a Smartphone?
- xtiansimon 8y agoThe question I find fascinating is whether we should spend $100 for a hard case to protect our $1000 smart phone. I bought an Otter case for my current iPhone, and it's saved my phone 6 times from a fall of 3 feet or more (I know, because I scratch a tick mark into the case each time). The comment I get most often is how bulky my phone is with the case. It's a tradeoff. A lot of damage could be avoided with a lanyard, but none of the iPhones have lanyard holes. Nearly all early cell/mobile phones, and small audio devices had this feature. Cameras have had straps and lanyard holes for years. Why not the iPhone??
