When you live your life on Twitter and Facebook, and are only friends with like minded people on Twitter and Facebook, you are not living in the real world. You are living in a narcissistic echo chamber.

Swype on iOS is detrimental to accurate typing. Apologies in advance.

Youch!
These phones are all fairly vulnerable I think. We had the bending ones when the 6 Plus was launched, of course.
I've seen videos of drop tests on the glass-backed Samsungs and not only can you crack the screen, you can crack the back as well - and of course the minute you do that, the water resistance is toast.
A titanium body and sapphire crystal screen would be my choice, with potted electronics.
Apparently sapphire glass is very scratch resistant but not as shatter resistant as the current screen materials.
I cannot recommend highly enough getting a glass screen protector, I have had them on my 6S+ since new and it has saved the screen a couple of times now.
Joker, it is a bit of a stretch to say the glass is inferior due to one reported incident, where as far as we know there was a bit of pressure on one point causing the breakage.
OP for the sake of $300 could you not get an iPhone 4 for bugger all and use this while your phone is being repaired?
In fact I have one in my draw with a sticky home button I can loan you for the cost of postage!!!
Yes - although when did you ever come across (say) a Rolex Sea Dweller with a shattered crystal?
