That's the price you pay when you choose to go caseless, you get used to it

The cost of AppleCare for 1 year + 1 screen replacement is cheaper than buying a case and a screen guard here in Australia at our big box retailers.
Apple designed the phone for naked use. It's beautiful. Cases aren't required unless you work in heavy industry. Just stop being clumsy!

who tf spends 150-200 dollars on a case? its hardly 10-20 dollars. keep it 40 if u wanna go hi fi.

I put an Otterbox defender and glass screen proctor around 80$ every year. Drop my phone every now and then never had a scratch, sent, or broken glass. I have a friend who doesn’t put cases on his IPhones and he doesn’t do AppleCare just send phone in for repair every other month. He has the money so it doesn’t bother him. I just tell him how wasteful it is, he could be 4 phones a year with all his repair fees.

Bro get AppleCare+ screen replacements are $49. Why would I buy a case if I can just get the screen replaced for cheap?

[–] Financial_Ice15@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

so first i gotta pay 200 bucks for 2 years for apple care, and then if the screen breaks, another 49 bucks? alr man continue wasting ur money, i can buy 5 high quality cases for that price.

don't buy apple if you cant afford AppleCare lmfao

[–] Financial_Ice15@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

such a stupid logic, choosing not to waste money and not being able to afford something are completely different.

[–] ToastedHam@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What are you talking about? A case + screen protector is ~$134 from Apple and 1 year of Applecare+ is $192 plus the fee for screen replacement.

[–] Mr_gmTheBest@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bought case and screen protector for 8 dollars , could buy cheaper, but I was lazy

[–] inflame07@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What are you smoking? How tf can a screen guard and case be more than hundred dollars?

[–] creaturemangler@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
