    How about making a phone that’s a whole millimeter thicker just to make the glass thick and strong enough that it won’t break if you drop it?

    Great idea! Unless of course the replacement of parts and broken phones is a core part of the business model.

      Even if it were thicker I’d still slap on a sacrificial glass screen protector atop it. I’ve dropped my phone only a handful of times, and so far have only ever broken the protector.

      Just slap a shield on it, there’s your added thickness and better drop resistance all in one!

      Rubbish. If my phone isn’t so thin that it can double as a knife, it’s not worth buying.
