iPhone X ... reasonable?! Naaay...

iPhone X: Bargain! You've just bagged yourself a cheap AR device • The Register[^] Just until you break the screen (and you will)...

One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know.

Ok, it may be an AR but I don't see the magazine well and the barrel would be way too short.

Maybe, but I've never broken a screen on any (Android) phone I've ever owned, care, plus a silicon case seems to be all I need to stop damage. Not that I'm getting an iPhone 10 X or whatever its called any time soon.

You handle your phone better than me :^)

The only time I broke the screen was when my Lumia 635 started going nuts and didn't stop for a while, and I needed to make an important call. I lost patience and the phone suddenly impacted screen-first on a wall... one of those ridged exterior walls. It didn't end well for the screen.

I've never been the sort to loose patience and go :mad: with things like that, but I can understand some people do.

It runs in the family since at least 3 generations - luckily only on objects. If there is something the male of my family species do not tolerate is uncomplying technology. I lost count of the phones, tools and car radios my dad threw out of the windows, deliberately massacred with power tools or run over with the car.
