Are phone cases and insurance a meme?
>>
>>53527107
Yes, don't get either
>>
>>53527107

>having insurance on a commodity that's value quickly decays
>>
>>53527120
Are you retarded? Would you carry a $700 device around without any protection?
>>
>>53527107
I think that is you own something expensive taht you've worked hard to get you should take care of it any way possible
>>
>>53527107
yup. Just put it in your pocket and don't drop it. Really simple.
>>
Not at all OP. Insurance is kind of a scam but a good case is worth the $30-$40
>>
>>53527107
i have a 5 euro hard silicone case plus a 3 euro tempered glass screen protector. they have single handedly prevented my device from every drop or ding for the past year. my last phone got a cracked screen after falling to wooden floor from my bed. maybe a meme, but a worthy one

So your Dessert Eagle is insured?
Or would you prefer your insurance people didn't know?
>>
>>53527293
A desert eagle isn't as fragile as a desert eagle you moron.
>>
>>53527306
But it is
>>
>>53527107
>Phone cases
yes
>Insurance
depends, my provider charges me a dollar a month, and if I break it in a year and a half, I can get a device free.
>>
>>53527107
a good TPU case for ANY PHONE WORTH HAVING ONE ON is like 12 bucks tops.

You're a dumbass for not having at least that.

Insurance is a scam

Cases for over 15 bucks is a scam


This thread is a meme
>>
>>53527107
Ever since Gorilla Glass 3 started being used, phone cases are no longer necessary but you might as well spend $20 on one just in case

Not sure about the insurance, I've never had any on my phones
>>
Maybe insurance if you get a new phone every year anyway

A good case is definitely worth the money so no meme

>>
>>53530414
You just got jinxed mate
>>
>>53530414
you got lucky. I've only broken 1 phone out of 4 owned but a cheapo slim case would saved it. I've dropped all of them one time other another

>walking outside
>put phone in sweatshirt pocket without looking
>pocket folds inward, doesn't open, miss pocket completely
>dropped

>phone on table
>bump
>oops

>inna bathroom
>pull up pants
>phone does a 360 and moonwalks out of my pocket
>wtf
>>
someone should make a chrome extension to turn "a meme" into "smurf" or something.

Spigen master race reporting. I have an S5 but this case is slim yet beasty.
>>
>>53527148
>$700 device
found your problem
>>
>>53531284
You overpaid
>>
>>53531620
$20? Really?
>>
>>53531680
Yes.
>>
>>53527107
Yes, both are for absolute retards who beg to get ripped off.

>>53527148
First, don't be a clumsy idiot. It's not that hard. Second, if 700 bucks is a relevant sum of money for you ... maybe you shouldn't spend it on a toy?
>>
>>53527107
depends your life style, if you stay all the day in the basement and never go out, maybe you don't even need a mobile phone
>>
I have a silicone case in my moto g.

It lets me treat it like shit. It falls face down at least once a week. This lets me not worry about it at all and focus on other things, instead of treating it like a diamond egg in my pocket.
>>
I use otterbox defender for iphone 6. i'm ranch hand. my phone gets dirty and dropped a lot.

not single scart\\\

>>53527293
>So your Dessert Eagle is insured?
I don't own a DE, but I have a S&W 500, and yes, it is.
>>
> no case
> IPhone 5s
> Never dropped it
> Owning it for 6 months now
Dunno why you fags drop things in the first place

The fuck? Have phones for a few years instead of a few months. You will drop one eventually.
>>

>ITT a bunch of people trying to act like accidents dont happen.

I bet none of you have ever dropped a glass plate or slipped on a slick floor either
>>
>>53533609
>dropped a glass plate
Nope, never. Nor anything else really. You have to be extremely careless to drop shit.

>slipped on a slick floor
Only if we count ice.

Why ruining the look of a phone for an once in a lifetime chance?
>>
>>53531680
You really think it's normal to pay 20 bucks for a piece of shit ass plastic the size of your hand ? And I'm a richfag ...
