Hey guys, so my current mobile phone is an iPhone 4 and I've had it for quite awhile now. I'm not sure exactly how long but yeah. Anyway in that time I originally had a case to protect it from being dropped and breaking. However i dropped it many times and the case broke. So for the past 6 months or so I've had it without a case and have dropped it numerous times. From about 5 feet onto concrete, out of my lap when i get out the car onto the pavement(I don't text and drive I leave it in my lap for changing the song when stopped at a red light) and also it just plain slipping out of my hand and sliding across the ground. Basically through all of this all that has appeared are a few scratches on the back and the corner having minuscule chips. However one time I dropped it screen first on concrete and it had black lines all across the screen and I figured I had destroyed the back panel and my phone needed replacement or repair. However over the course of the day the black lines started to disappear almost as if the phone was healing itself O.o. After that I got a dead pixel, I barely noticed it but I saw it was there. I didn't really care and went about my business, the next day when I went to show one of my friends, it had gone back to normal. After that the only other issue so far was that the charger wasn't working at all in the phone and about a day later it started working again perfectly fine. Also it has an abnormally long battery life, I can use it from 100% to dead over 3 days of extensive use.

 

So is this super-human or do iPhones just do this stuff?

Supernatural might be involved. Try throwing it out of a bridge and see if it comes back to your hands the next day.

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

3 days on one charge is normal for an Iphone. Its just Android phones that have bad battery life but I still love em!  ^_^

 

You may have knocked a connection loose while dropping the phone and then so happened to have moved it in such a way to put it back in place :P

Quack 🦆
