how often do you android people drop your phone that you need to buy new ones for 100s of dollars? sounds like someone has a case of the fumblydumble hands. :smug:

about once a year

I get high and leave it on my lap. or the other day my phone fell out of my dumb tiny jacket pocket and bounced down a flight of stairs.

one time there was a hole in my jacket and the phone fell into the toilet when I was pissing. that was an iPhone.

just wait til they are adding $99 styluses to them all because 'OHH the apple PEN is just so revolutionary!'

new 6 already costs $800

The price of iPhones hasn't increased a penny since the first one was released(they actually decreased it dramatically for the 3g) It won't suddenly start increasing as they become more popular then ever.

you are a disgusting trash human who should contemplate how they can manage to consistently break expensive things and maybe you should rethink how irresponsible you are

I love that useless 16gb models are still a thing to artificially lower the "starting at" price.

i secretly enjoy breaking or otherwise loving up expensive poo poo. I saw some R8 parked at the beach the other day and I pulled over and took all his tire caps real quick.

idk why. anarchy. nihilism. take your pick.

say what you will but I've successfully launched conversations with at least 2 cute hipster girls in college by showing them I could play Pokemon Red on my phone.

Never actually played it, just more of a conversation piece. Played a bit of Starfox 64 though on a train.

also it's easier to pirate apps.

Why don't they make the screens out of plexiglass or that windshield glass since a 2 foot fall will permanently ruin it? Especially with a retina display


I have a loving expensive macbook with retina display and a thing fell on the screen and cracked it to hell now my expensive toy is useless


Apparently it's hard and expensive to replace too. Meanwhile my parents bought some simple cheap refurbished PC and it was having problems and it took like 6 minutes for me to pop it open and fix it
