[Hidden-tech] Apple Glass Breaking

[Paul Stallman]

That all said and I feel sorry for Apple truly I do.  To answer the
original question. I've seen a lot more people with smashed I phones than
Samsung phones. I know the original verizon DROID also had problems. Could
be the new I phone design with the glass to the edge vs a rim. On the
contrary I've never seen anyone with a cracked ipad screen.
