Happy birthday to Peg,
happy birthday to Peg.......
I went with one of those particular straps because most all other iPhone wrist straps/lanyards need to attach to the case...whereas this company has figured out a good way to attach the strap to the phone itself. :thumbsup: (I hope!)
On the subject of the glass protectors, my wife and I have each noted that the protectors we have installed are hardly noticeable and do not impede our use of the phone--EXCEPT for a little ridge around the home button. The protector forms a little ridge around the home button. It is shaped...
Hey Clint! Showed her last night and she is 100% on board. All she can say is that "if I'd had one of those before, we'd have saved $200!" In fact, when she was one of the many images on the site which displays the product, she said, "that's just how I hold the phone when it slips out of my...
THAT'S interesting. My wife even talked about "why don't they have wrist straps?" after she broke her 2nd screen.
To me, that would just be a major PITA.
I forget where she dropped it the first time. But the second time was on a hard floor at the mall (the same mall which contains our local Apple store!). She drops it ALL the time (sometimes even outside on pavement). She's forever holding it in her hand--not unlike a 16-year old girl!
An update of sorts.
My son gave my wife and I each screen protectors for Christmas (after the above disasters!). Specifically, these:
But, unfortunately, I never took the bull by the horns and actually installed them. I guess that's an important part of the process.
And, you guessed...
Huh.
So, in your friend's case, the glass protector really did the job and saved his screen. Much like larrdog's story above.
I think I should really give these a serious look. I haven't taken any action yet.
Thanks, Terry.
Yeah, we both have cases on our phones. And I think they have done a pretty good job at keeping our screens/phones safe. It's just a strange coincidence that we both cracked our screen about a month apart after years of unbroken glass.
The other things those cases do is...
So my iPhone 6 fell out of my shirt pocket the other day and the glass cracked.
About a month ago, my wife dropped her phone and practically shattered the glass.
Both phones were taken to my local Apple Store. Each was repaired for $109 + tax (in a two hour window).
No real complaints...
