      It’s no different to any other screen in that respect. Just stop dropping your phone, or if you really can’t do that use a case and a screen protector.

      I mean, what’s the difference on the outer screen being exposed vs the entire screen of a regular phone being exposed?

      I have a 2023 model and if the outer screen gets cracked, big deal, I don’t use it for anything except checking the time without opening it up. And the main screen is completely protected when closed. I’m a farmer and my phones are usually broken within weeks, this one has lasted me 6 months without getting cracked. Mainly because it’s small enough to not fall out of my shirt pocket and go up an auger.

        I say that mainly because of the Motorola’s past with repair services of the outer sceen and casing. They will do it, for almost the price of a new phone. So as sick as the screen looks, when it breaks, you will have a pretty sick paper weight or pretty empty wallet.

        • not saying other phones don’t have expensive replacement screens, just usually not as expensive as the device itself
