(I have a protection plan on my phone so 🤷‍♂️)

    I love waterproof phones. I love that manufacturers can charge me almost as much as my phone is worth for a battery change, because of a feature I didn‘t ask for and I don‘t need at all.

        That‘s great and all but I don‘t buy new phones anymore. And the majority of phones aren‘t fairphones. I also avoid Samsung phones like the plague.

          May I ask why you avoid Samsung? After trying out many different brands (currently using a Sony Xperia) I actually think Samsung might be the best option out there. There is always a big selection of cases and screen protectors available and the user experience is usually great. Not trying to advertise or anything, just curious.

    My buddy just found out that water doesn’t care the other day he was recording a video in the pool

    Hopefully it’s a decent protection plan and not a “pay for another phone in monthly payments then have to pay $150 deductible if you actually break your phone” kind of plan.
