I buy on average four new phones a year. Bought a new one Oct 2nd. I looked it up. It's cracked already. I'm punishing myself for a couple months looking at this cracked screen. The wife told me to go buy a new one. I'm like nope. I need to be taught a lesson. It's broke me of buying the expensive phones. The worst part for me. The first thing I do when I get to work is open up Spotify. No tunes will ruin my day. I can't seem to get my rythm going for day. It's like people with coffee. But I don't drink coffee. I crank up the heavy **** early. The last one I killed I dropped in the parking lot at work. Screen went black. I made it to lunch and called it a day. Went straight to the phone store.

Why did you not buy a proper case? Yep. Cases are cheap. Phones are not. I've dropped my phone several times on hard surfaces, but not a crack or scratch. Saved by the case! I just bought my first case in years. I hate a bulky phone. Four phones in 2018 alone.

I've never dropped and broken a phone. I did run over an old flip phone back in the day while mowing.
Advice? Wise men don't need it. Fools won't heed it.

I've heard and can understand that getting it caught in the zipper can suck

Lifeproof case isn't all that bulky at all. I've never broke a phone and I work in a rough environment for them. Only problem I have had is they don't float.
I hate photobucket.

I have been carrying a cell phone since I was 18 and never broke or cracked one. Cases do miracles.
Also, if you dont have a case, the phones are slick as all get out. Those sleek faux metals cases they are in look cool but offer not grip at all... like ice.
Cases for the win!
But back to WAWIs question, I am sure it is annoying BUT not as annoying as your nads falling off. That is worse.
