iPhone 4 Screens Break 82% More Than 3GS
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.
Shocking news ... metal covered glass breaks easier than the one surrounded with thick plastic.
Look at the 3G/3GS, and compare it to the first iPhone (on which I saw some broken screens) and the iPhone 4....
I think the new design looks spectacular, still I would 100x prefer my 3GS with the 4's features than the actual 4.
I actually think, that a iPhone 4 with the plastic bumper is still more vulnerable to side impacts than a 3G/GS without a protector.
Just my 2c ...
An other factor : if you have big hands, you can much more easily drop small objects. The 4 felt tiny compared to my in-case (actual brand of the case) covered 3GS. Every time I hold a 3GS without the cover I have the feeling that I am about to drop, it is so slim and shiny/slippery.
CyanogenMod is pretty awesome and it is available for most Android phones so you don't need to wait for the carrier updates.
Uhuh. So if I hack my Android phone, I can control it. And that's better than if I hack my iPhone so I can control it.
Seriously, you fandroids are the most oddly hypocritical lot I've come across in a long time...
