Phones are getting thinner, but so many of us wrap them in covers and protectors that it’s often difficult to notice. It feels almost foolish not to take every effort to protect your handset, especially if you’ve just spent thousands of pounds or dollars on it. Yes, you can get and claim on insurance, but that will still cost you in the long run.
I spent a year using an iPhone without a case or screen protector and didn’t drop it once – perhaps knowing it lacked protection made me more careful? Or maybe it was luck. So when I watched my iPhone 17 Pro fall (in slow motion) onto the bathroom floor, I was very glad I didn’t continue without the casing.
