Who regularly gets phones lost or stolen? I did break one once hiking with some sort of rock collision in my pocket but this isn't a regular thing over many years.
- cassepipe 2y agoI do. One was lost watching a video in the bathtub. A wasp came very closed to my head and I dived into the water with phone in hand sadly. Another one fell off my bike phone holder while riding on old style pavement (lots of vibrations) and the car behind me rolled over it (still functional except for the screen though, I was impressed). Another was lost because I left it in a stupid place that I did not have access to later. All of this during the course of six years which means each phone last an average of 2 years. Not too bad in my opinion.
- ghaff 2y agoAnd I broke 1 phone in 15 years. Yeah, losing one every 2 years is somewhat extreme.
- namaria 2y agoSeconded. Losing a phone every 2 years and the stories GP tells sound like a string of bad decisions.
- verzali 2y agoIt actually makes sense though. If they can get a usable phone for about $100, then they can break at least 10 of them before they are even close to the cost of a single iphone. With that kind of reasoning you can afford to do much more risky and fun stuff with your phone.
