You should probably use a case.

OnePlus always used the optical type until this year and a glass protector did not limit it at all. So now we have to live with no screen protector. SMH

    That's why you should never drop it. Imagine you drop a laptop. All laptops will stop working properly. Same for phones and smart watches. And always use a case and screen protector even if you are the most careful user in the world.

        They shouldn't be there to begin with, the S24 Ultra didn't have them, and that phone looked better, and had nothing that could ever fall off from it, that phone simply had a better build.

I guess you are ranting because of the glued rings, something that is totally normal. How else should they be attached?

            Only fans will stay with Sammy. Now i realised Samsung only doing their shit selling devices with old hardware and just offer Ai tech . Lol

              Tester, 13 Feb 2025Fragile, even more than the previous modelS24 Ultra was extremely durable. What tf are you talking about?

                    I don't have an S21 series device. Either way, I'm sorry, the information I read after a Google search must've been wrong then.

                      What a weird ad for Ai nonsense by insurance company that says phone is rubbish and you should buy their protection plan for mobile device. Also Ai !

                        Corning is corny

                          "According to the Allstate Protection Plans 2023 Mobile Damage Survey, 93 million Americans have damaged a smartphone in the past 12 months,..." GSM users would tell you all 93 million were samsungs lol

                          The test: "all were damaged after a single drop from six feet onto a sidewalk." The purpose of the tests is to break the phone. 🤭 This isn't a defense of Samsung. For every "here comes sam fanboys" there's 10 users trying to dunk on samsung for this test 😝
                          I'd say I would use a case on my phone constructed of ultra thin metal and glass. Seems obvious, no matter who makes it.

                              Titanium frames are no good for phones. It's too hard and doesn't absorb any force. Plastic is best

                                  That's why I get no updates.

                                  Google and Samsung Members say, that Samsung gives the updates to the carrier and the carrier gives you the updates!!!!!

                                  Or maybe I have misunderstood it all.
