I like to run poverty spec phones because I have a poor track record of breaking them. Shit I shattered a phone screen picking up a tire once, and I run case and screen protector at all times. I can't be having a 600$ device in my pocket lmfao too big a loss when the inevitable happens.

Same here. Neuropathy fucked my hands so I drop shit all the time and phones have become unwieldy as fuck since touchscreens became the norm.

I literally shattered my phone screen dropping it on a skittle once.
