Have you ever dropped and broken your phone?

Chatting with the AC forums.

Chances are we've all been there at one point or another. You're using your phone perfectly fine with no worries in the world. Then, whether you trip or someone bumps into you, you lose your grip and your phone goes flying through the air — and all you can do is hope and pray the damage isn't too serious.
