Is it me or are snartphones more harder to drop on the floor these days compared to the earlier ones? I remember when I first started using smartphones around 2011-2013, I dropped my Samsung galaxy and LG phones leading to cracked screens. In fact cracked screens were very common in those days. I havenāt dropped a single smartphone since then nor do I see many cracked screens these days. I think I came close a few years ago to dropping my iPhone on a concrete floor but I caught it mid air. Are we becoming more experienced handling them or are they making them more sturdier to handle compared the early generation smartphones?
Are smartphones more harder to drop on the ground these days?

Once you buy a case, it's damm near impossible to drop, and even if you do the case protects it. I haven't cracked a screen in 6 years
I cracked a phone every year because I wouldn't rock a case. My phone now never been out the case.

Obligatory for boldedI've never cracked a screen. I never used a stupid screen protector either. always have a case though

"more harder"
real talk tho cop that screen protector, gorilla glass
I don't even use a screen protector, don't like how they feel.
A mix of building muscle memory after a decade, manufacturers making it difficult/costly to get repairs done, most phones even cheap ones having quality builds. 2012 smartphones are way lighter and cheaper feeling than 2022s, it's basically impossible not knowing where your phone is on you most of the time.

Look for any "rugged" case, especially the ones that come in 2 or more pieces
Exactly. Back then it was a new experience that had you fumbling

funny question but a lot of things changed
the phones got bigger and wider
the cases got better
