Because they're morons and don't use a case, or a case with proper edge protection. Rarely if ever a phone will fall on a protruding object. And even then, there are glass screen protectors that help with that as well.

For phones that push $1000-1500+ in some configurations, its utterly moronic not use a case. And if you're filthy rich to do so, don't complain if they break.

I had an iPhone 3GS bounce off a subway train, and fall face flat on the subway tracks. After the transit employee retrieved it for me, both of us couldn't believe the screen wasn't broken. It had a case with a decent lip over the edges of the screen.

That could not have happened at College or Union station ... just couldn't have Then again it must not have happened just after a Leaf game I'll bet.
