gollark: Basically every cheap phone I've had just broke from me damaging it in some way, while your expensive iPhones have had some sort of weird internal failure, which is kind of funny.
gollark: I'd like to replace it, but obviously now isn't really a great time for that, and there... aren't really any good replacements.
