If you're talking about debris scratching the lens, you can always get glass lens protectors. Very cheap too.
 
you can go own to the Pro, I had same issues with the max, I think its due to weight it keeps falling, or getting bumped on things... never in my life have had this happen, except for the Max!
I’ve owned the XS max, the 11 pro max, the 12 pro max and the 13 pro max. I’ve not broken any of them.

That’s exactly what I did for this phone. And also the Frosted Phone Rebel case has been drop tested to be very durable. I don’t need a rugged Otterbox case, besides it doesn’t support MagSafe and is way to bulky

Where did you drop your 11 to get debris on the camera lens? On a gravel path or something? I agree that any durable phone case is suitable protection as I used the Tech 21 silicone case for my 6S and 8 and both are in pristine condition.
 
I’ve dropped my phones a trillion times from various heights with screen protectors and cases and I’ve never damaged my phones except the time I didn’t have a case and screen protector. You need to learn to be more careful.

You can try idiot proofing the iPhone. Apparently, you don't take precautions to protect it, so start with that. Put it in a protective case. Watch where you sit it and how you carry it. Don't carry it in your pocket with other junk like change and keys.
