Just curious....im on my 3rd iphone right now. Im starting to think that they are just not able to handle everyday wear and tear. Im not meaning working in a machine shop either...just walking around, going from semi cold to very humid hot. I carry my phone in a Otterbox impact case, with a power support anti glare.
My first phone was great...i was all about the JB since it was my first...however, my camera went dead on me. I took it to the Apple store, of course they replaced it. I thought ok, just a bad refurb (bought from ATT as a refurb anyway, for 50$). I guess they didnt fix it after all =) JK, i know they dont.
So i went a month or so...babying my phone like never before...always in the pocket, never dropped and noticed my sleep button was making its way into the case..i would have to use my finger nail (actually had to have my nail a tad longer than normal so i could push it) to even get it to work. Soon after that it would just quit working all together. Took it to the Apple store today (Same Genius) and swapped it out.
I got stiffed on the first return and didnt try to remove the PS Anti glare. However, before i returned this one, i peeled it off..I actually got it pretty much perfect onto the new phone. Not 1 piece of dust. I took it off in a lightly steamy bathroom, stored it inside a clamshell case that my otterbox came in...i cleaned the inside, applied the screen protector inside, closed up the box...left it there overnight...returned today to a steamy shower with my new phone, cleaned it up and applied. Worked great.
Please dont take this as me complaining...im happy with my iphone...few things i would change, but other than that im perfectly fine with its functionality. Im just wondering how long its going to continue to function properly =)
