Welp, i dropped my phone and cracked my screen. 

I have insurance on it, so it's getting repaired for a 30 dollar deductible. 

 

Nice to have that on a 1000 dollar phone. 

Now maybe I should get a case for it.

    My 6s Plus was $800 when I got it. I have never had insurance on any phone (and have never needed it)

    Yeah I’d say a case, one where if it isn’t touching anything, it will inflate so when it hits the ground, it won’t break

    Been there with my Iphone 6, the display was completely shattered.  Luckily there was a repair store in a shopping center next to my apartment and it only took a day.  As for a case, I'd recommend getting an otterbox or something along those lines with a glass screen protector.

    Can I just note....

     

     

     

    ive never broken a phone except for once when I threw it, but the battery was shot and it was water damaged so it was broken anyways. 

     

    Also worth noting, it wasn’t my phone and I wasn’t the one who dropped it in water, my friend did and he asked me to see how far I could throw it and it shattered, the whole screen popped out and was in a million pieces (except some parts of the screen, there were some shards at the borders that stayed there)

    @Skanky Sylveon i-Blason makes EXCELLENT cases!  Otterboxes feel nicer, but i-Blason makes all military-grade cases with decent aesthetics.  Most impressively, they're at least half the price of otterboxes.  My iPhone SE has an i-Blason on it, and neither the phone nor the case have sustained damage over the course of more than 2 years.  Yes, I've dropped it a fair share of times.

     

    Fair warning; most cased phones are a b*tch to clean!

    Ouch, good thing you had insurance on it. Did you have a screen protector on it?

    @Java @Techstorm970 I got this.

    TPU is rubber like, and I don't think that I need to explain polycarbonate. 

    It has good reviews, and the built in stand would be nice.

     

    @iLostMyXbox21 This isThie first time I broke a phone without throwing it.

     

    It cracked right at the corner where the glass bends, this is why I actually leke a bit of bezel. 

     

    It's only at the top right corner though. 

     

    @Cyberspirit No.

     

    Also, on a side note, I may loose ip67 protection once the phone is opened. 

    It all depends on if the reoair person re seals the phone properly. 

    I mean, if he's a certified repair technician I would imagine that it shouldn't be an issue, but...
