Most people I know get a phone case to limit damage to their phone. A case is an inexpensive investment that usually pays for itself many times over.
Someone who is really clumsy or in a situation where they are much more likely than average to drop their phone should purchase phone insurance.
And for uninsured people who happen to break their phone, it would still be cheaper to repair it than to get a new one. Repaired phones still benefit from longer support lifecycles, and the proposed legislation would ensure that spare parts are affordable and available.

- commoner 5y agoThat contrasts sharply with my experiences, having dropped phones that were adequately protected by cheap cases on many occasions. These phones were still working fine years later, with no internal or external damage. Users who are more concerned about phone damage can buy tougher multi-layer cases, which are still great investments.
