My hand was wet as I did the routine one handed thumb operating procedure.
Suddenly, to my horror, the phone slipped out of my hand and fell to the sidewalk flat on it's face.
Something all of us Apple iPhone users dread!
I heard a sickening sound and instantly knew that even though I had it in a protective case this time it was not going to survive the drop like it had so many times before.
Sure enough the face was shattered.
As I ran my finger across the surface I felt the sharp edges of what appeared to be standard single strength glass.
Not "gorilla glass" or "Sapphire glass" but plain old ordinary single strength glass.
Now I could be wrong, but the Sapphire gorilla failed like ordinary glass does.
This obviously is by design because everything about Apple products is totally engineered to their specs and design, leaving nothing to chance.
My iPhone six was now rendered useless for the most part.
I could not see the screen very well so I now had to use Siri commands to make calls or text.
Fortunately, knowing the fatal flaw by design in ipads and iphones i ALWAYS buy the insurance.
One call and my new replacement would ship immediately for a mere few bucks deductible.
Folks if your gonna buy Apple get the insurance!
We all know that there is truly unbreakable solutions but perhaps Apple has it's fingers in the insurance side of things so they continue to design this stupid vulnerability into it's products by design.
By now all of us Apple users know that one day we will see the faces of our ipads and phones shattered.
For a company noted for quality premium products this is one of the most stupid features allowed in any product on the market place shelves...but from their standpoint it adds to their bottom line in insurance profits.
Service and support from
the people who know your products best
Oh ya...they sure do!
Will this stop us from buying Apple?
Naw!!!
Still enjoy all my Apple products none the less.
