Otterbox Defender. 5+ years and still mint condition, except some paint scratches on the headphone and USB inputs.

I use a case, one that also protects the face with high edges, also a screen protector, the hard perspex type. Well worth protecting your investment.

I use a cheap android phone (<$120 when I bought it 3 years ago). I protect it with cheap case + Hydrogel screen protector. I'm satisfied with Hydrogel type screen protector as it still on good condition even after my phone falls screenfirst many times. There are many scratches right now on the screen protector, but it still usable and not annoying as most scratches located on the edge of screen. Most of them caused by falling sceenfirst to gravel ground and asphalt several times.. lol.

I always use the same cheap black TPU Spigen cases with raised edges to protect the screen from drops on my phones, sometimes Android sometimes iPhone. No screen protector, no plan, no scratches. I have had mobile phones since the Nokia 2110 and never cracked a screen or had dents. There's been a scratch a few times but most often not.

I have an exuberant 3 year old (child, the phone itself is 4) my phone has taken a couple of flights off the second floor balcony. Otterbox and screen protector, no scratches!

Screen protectors are kinda expensive and break very often. I calculated it's cheaper to replace my screen (which feels a lot nicer than a scren protector) whenever it breaks.

I use a good case (not the one the phone came with, Xiaomi cases are terrible) and a good tempered glass (the phone came with a low quality hydrogel). The phone is in great condition because i never drop it (phones are expensive in my country so i plan to use it for a lot of years)

I live on a horse farm, so yeah, I have an Otterbox Defender that's kept my phone safe so far.

I use an s22 with a decent spigen case and a screen protector. I drop my phone daily due to having a bad hand. My phone is yet to break. I've had it for almost a year now.

Rubberized case, back only, no screen protector. No scratches on the screen as far as I can tell after ~2.5 years. I make a point to never put it in the same pocket as my keys. I've dropped it a few times, sometimes face down (on floors, anyway), but the case has absorbed enough of the impact that it wasn't damaged.

In the past I've had one phone that I dropped on concrete, that landed on a corner. That was in a hard plastic case, which broke and came off, but the phone only got a tiny crack in the corner of the screen and a dent in the corner of the phone itself.

Case only

I have a case, screen and protection plan. I've just replaced the screen protector and case so everything is is perfect condition right now 😊

Yes, I own a case and glass screen protector. I went without a screen protector with an old Pixel and ended up with quite a few microscratches that drove me nuts. A friend of mine used a case but no screen protector on his iPhone and I don't know how he does it. I'd be constantly worried about scratches.

I don't have any protection. My phone fell down once on asphalt (because my headphones were connected weirdly and my backpack pulled it out of my pocket), the screen is slightly cracked but now it won't crack anymore

Glass screen protector. Rear leather skin from dbrand. Insurance from my bank.

Case but no screen protector for me.

I use a case since I dropped it and the back (glass) is cracked. Because I don't want to risk cutting my hand, I'm using the case that came with the phone.

Still no screenprotector though. There are some micro scratches, but no visible damage when using it.

3.5+ year old phone. No phone specific insurance either.

cheap case (no front cover), stock (came pre-applied) screen protector thats scratched to hell from my nails swiping across it. thats it, no cracks or other damages except miniscule (like 0.5mm) chips in three of the corners from dropping it constantly.
