Dad dropped his iPhone X on the highway

[arkitect]

Ha, it went in the bin eventually. I thought we’d have to send it off but the pictures made the situation pretty clear.

Good timing by the wife though. It fell out of her pocket and she managed to time the door slam perfectly.

How badly was the car door damaged?

UPDATE: The phone works! I guess everything is normal on it?! I bought him an Adidas case from Best Buy last week, just "in case" anyone is looking for a recommendation. I was complaining about the 50 bucks when I bought it but I'm laughing now.

Oh, and since other people asked How if he was driving, he was on his motorcycle.

Short dude = little pockets
Short dude + Big bike = smaller little pockets

That’s amazing!

It just added to the many scuffs along the door sill.

How the hell did your dad’s phone fall out of his pocket while on the highway?

And how did it not fall out into his car? Was he walking down the highway?

if he paid with an Amex he may have purchase protection (least with their Platinum card) and theyll cover entire cost of repairs. 90 day coverage

 

[bruinsrme]

Ouch. Tell your dad to use a case next time.

 

[dk001]

I'm curious on his ability to go back, on the highway, and retrieve it 😱

He did. Saved the phone. Screen protector too. There’s a thread about it somewhere...

Caseless on a motorcycle? Does your dad wear a helmet when he rides!
