iPhone 4 Screens Break 82% More Than 3GS

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the not-that-kind-of-crack dept.

A surprising number of readers have submitted linkage to a story discussing a recently released study that proclaims that iPhone 4 glass breaks way more often than the 3GS's. Although the chart that I found more surprising was the one that said almost 9% of iPhone 3GS screens crack after a year.

    You do realize that the entire face of every single model of iPhone is one plate of glass, right? Its not like a flip phone or candybar where the screen is embedded and behind a bezel that is 25% of the width/height of the phone on all sides.

    I will refer you to option "c" of my original missive: suckers that got sold a mechanically inferior product. .

    Wow, maybe I should get rid of my iphone and get a slow as hell droid because I could drop it and it might not break.
