Me and my mates were at a 21st, and I didn't have any pockets, nor a bag, to hold my things. So Jordan was carrying my phone in his pocket.
Through no fault of his own, it was purely unlucky, my Nexus fell out of his pocket and landed smack on the ground.
Here's the damage.
Unfortunately, the touch sensors are actually a part of the glass, so broken glass = broken sensors.
This rendered my phone unusable. Which is a shame because I absolutely LOVED that phone. I believe in the next model, the Nexus 5, they fixed this problem so that broken glass broken sensors.
Jordan is saving up to get it fixed :)
Luckily I had an old iPhone 4 that I could use in the meantime.
2 days after the death of my Nexus, I was helping Jordan move from his dads to his mums house.
My car was FULL as we were doing it all in one trip. I had my iPad lying on the front seat and when Jordan came to sit down, he put it in his foot space on top of a whole lot of bags. He went to fix his shoe before entering the car when something fell out of the car. It was my iPad.
Here's the damage.
As you can see the cracks cover the entire thing. |
This is the worst part (I have taped over a few parts to stop the shards of glass falling out or cutting me). |
I wasn't even mad, in fact I thought it was hilarious. Jordan felt terrible though. I really didn't care because it still works fine (as fine as an 2 year old iPad can work).
Fast forward to 3 days later. Jordan and I were in the kitchen cooking or something and he moved a bag of chips that were sitting on the counter.
Wouldn't you believe, my phone fell from under the chips onto the hardwood floor. I don't even understand how it happened, but I certainly don't blame Jordan. It was a freak accident and it's not like he's clumsy.
Here's the damage.
It's a bit difficult to see as I have taped over the entire back. But you can see the lines around the apple in the middle. |
I am very excited to get my Nexus working again, the iPhone has come close to bringing me to tears on far to many occasions!
