I feel sorry for people who got into iphones early and then never tried another brand.

Among all the other scary things that should make people flee Apple like the plague, like releasing updates that makes older phones slower and making it as difficult as possible to change the battery or repair something, nothing deterred me more from ever buying an iphone than going to college and seeing all these iphones everywhere. Because every single one of them has cracks in the screen. Small cracks in corners, screens literally cracked in half, and some screens cracked from the center and outwards in all directions so badly that it looked like someone took a hammer to it.

The first few months i kept thinking that people are ridiculous cheep-skates for using phones with screens that you barely can see through because of all the cracks. "Students have THAT poor economy?" i asked myself. Then i realized that these aren't five year old items they're using. These are super expensive phones they bought just a month ago and didn't get the extended warranty for. I honestly can't remember if i've ever seen an iphone that wasn't broken other than in ads. I've used Sonys, Oneplusones, Nokias and Samsungs over the last 15 years that i've dropped countless times and they've never even got as much as a scratch on them.
