> What are the PMs doing at Apple.

Probably trying to find better screen materials, and addressing reliability issues.

I used Palm devices with resistive touch screens. It was good, but when you go glass, there's no turning back.

I would never buy a phone with folding screens protected by plastic. I want a dependable slab. Not a gimmicky gadget which can die any moment. I got my fix for dying flex cables with Casiopeia PDAs. Never again.

my girlfriend broke her iphone screen twice in two weeks, the second time we didn't bother repairing the screen and now she has a broken screen which looks really ugly. I've dropped my google pixel fold 9 countless time and the screen is still intact and flawless. So not sure what you're talking about.

I’ve dropped my iPhone 15 more times than any phone I’ve ever had. Still fine. I don’t know how I got away with it.

Am I representative? Dunno.

		I've dropped my iPhone 12 a million times with no screen protection or cover. Still fine apart from some scratches around the edges.
