I have one coming for my 16 year old son. He's notorious for breaking screens on his iPhones and he's had to pay for getting four replaced. Just doing some looking at Amazon, and the Poetic Revolution looks like a great combination of price and functionality. Your experiences?

Get the brat an indestructible flip phone or brick for a couple of months, he'll take better care of YOUR shite.

I second tech21. Only case I will buy now.

Had it on my last iPhone for 2 years. Dropped phone all the time.....not a single crack


Eta: much lighter and thinner than the bulky otter box cases

I have a Tech 21 case for my phone. Perfect for me, but doesn't seem that it would provide much screen protection.

Get a tempered glass screen protector to use with the case.

It is better than the screen protector films.

He's paid for the screen replacement himself each time. Thanks for the parenting tip, though.

It's obvious he doesn't take care of property, four occasions of broken phones is past casual accidents.

Who's paying for the trip to fix the phones and his maintenance/phone service contract? Unless he's independently wealthy somebody is assisting in underwriting the broken phone repair.

Your welcome for the parenting tip, there's a possibility that you might reflect back on it later and wish you'd taken it.

Good luck.

After breaking two phones in Otterbox cases and one in a life proof case, I swore off high dollar cases for good and bought a Merit waterproof, shock, and dust proof case from Amazon. Couldn't be happier.

Thule cases are top of the line, better than Lifeproof.


They are bulky but worth it if you have a kid who has a tendency to destroy tech

Then he shouldn't have an iPhone. He's either irresponsible with it or just not able to protect it due to job or lifestyle or whatever.

4? really? and continue to get the same device. that's insanity.

If you don't have a boat: Otterbox
If you have a boat: Lifeproof with life jacket

I dare you to find a large number of teenagers without broken iPhone screens.

I decided to just get a glass screen protector to go with it so with the two combined it's fine sans water damage
