Apple says the glass on Martial arts Archivesthe brand new iPhone X, which covers the front of back of the phone, is the "most durable glass ever in a smartphone." This might be true. But it's still glass.
Now that Apple's most expensive and technologically advanced handset has made it into the real world, some people are already dropping their naked, case-less phones by accident — and the results are exactly what you would expect. Just see below:

All these photos of #iPhoneX with cracked or smashed screen & back panel are heartbreaking.

Now, it's unknown just how many people are dropping their unprotected phones, but it's certainly happening and should underscore the simple point that your nearly all-glass iPhone X might be a gleaming, futuristic looking gadget, but that makes it more fragile than early versions of the iPhone. SquareTrade, a warranty company, filmed their drop and tumbling tests to show the iPhone X was the "most breakable" and "most expensive to repair iPhone" ever.
Accidental drops are not covered under Apple's warranty program, so just a screen repair will cost a whopping $249. And if your phone should incur more damage from a fall, Apple is charging $549 — the cost of an iPhone 7.
But it's not as if Apple has a scheme to produce intentionally more fragile phones to rake in more dough from repair costs. Its last three iPhones — the 7,8, and X — are all water and dust resistant (not waterproof, though). This water resistance rating, according to MacRumors, means the iPhone X can handle immersion in 3.3 feet of water for up to 30 minutes.
Your iPhone might not survive every trip into a pool, but at least many accidental drops have a readily available solution: Cases.
I don’t get people who are complaining about their smashed #iPhoneX GET A SCREEN PROTECTOR & A CASE. ABSOLUTE MORONS.

Okay, you might not be an absolute moron. Maybe you just like to take risks. Choose wisely.
