The cover cushioned the phone so that anything it hit would have a chance to survive. It’s for the protection of everything else
It had a belt clip, that was the only reason to get one of these. I had one.
And the cover was mostly to keep the phone form getting dirty when not in use, not to protect it when dropped.
It’s really too bad how much their smartphones suck compared to the old phone days.
Them and Kodak
Yeah, the cover protects anything that the phone falls on.
It’s not for you; it’s to make HER feel sexy. You wouldn’t understand smh.
(/s, if it’s needed)
Everyone plays up the 3310 as a snake-playing text-messaging mjolnir but I had a Motorola Talkabout that survived being spiked into the pavement once. The battery popped out but I put it back in and made a phone call.
turns out a plastic shell with some give in the structure can take abuse more gracefully than a solid brick made of glass. and aluminum.
I had a Nokia something or another, it was a stick phone from sprint, somebody got pissed and threw it full speed, across the room, into a concrete wall, and it flew into like 7 pieces.
However, when I put those 7 pieces back together, that son of a bitch went on running.
I guess there’s trade offs for everything, but the younger generations will never know how to send a t9 text from your pocket
