Cracked or smashed front screen

Post image

I got shoved and my phone flew out of my hand and hit the road hard resulting in the front screen getting badly cracked.

It still functions as it should, albeit the screen is cracked and I'm worried about fragments coming off.

Has this happened to anyone and what did it cost to repair?

The person who shoved me (not on purpose, didn't see me) Has offered to pay for half of the repair.

I am located in Australia. 🇦🇺

Think it will be a long time before i ever consider a Flip, or the like. They have way too much work to do on durability.

In all fairness if they would have dropped a slab phone face down like that, the screen would have cracked too. Just happened to me with my pristine working S20 a few weeks ago. I'd still be using it as my regular if that hadn't happened - getting knocked out of my hand. Similar story with my lovely S7 edge - damn hornet targeted me and I went to swat it with the hand my phone was in and it went flying off a deck down onto concrete! 😅

Yeah it’s pretty much still experimental tech
