I cracked the screen on my iPhone a few days ago and it hasn't been working correctly since. I had a phone case too! Why Apple continues to build these things out of glass is beyond me. Are there any good Android phones not made of glass?
There is a plastic you can apply to the screen that helps the glass stay cohesive if dropped. You might try that.
Plus they make cases intended to protect the phone if dropped. Might be worth the investment. (They aren't cheap).
Not sure about the Android phones. My Android TracPhone was $30 and I've dropped it so many times without damaging it. It does have the protective cling film on it.
I do have the protective screen and it did crack that. The phone has since been acting weird.

The cases seem to run about $50. I do not know which ones are best.
You might ask in one of the Tech groups? They might know.
