To-infinitive

My YouTube channel has a lot to do with cellphone repair and cellphone durability.

The imperative

Believe it or not, I have only broken one cellphone in my life on accident.

Future simple

I'll tell you that story in a minute, but first I want to hear from a few of my YouTube

friends to see if they've ever broken a phone.

Normally on their channels we see these beautiful cellphones displayed perfectly, but I think

there are some horror stories hidden there somewhere.

[Kelsey] Hey guys, I'm Kelsey, and this is Pebbles, and with my phones I'm usually pretty

I typically put my phone in an OtterBox, but the one time that I didn't was when I cracked

So I thought it was going to be a good idea to try to walk two dogs and text at the same

And, you know, of course I was distracted because I was texting and the dogs got excited,

yanked the leash in my hand and my phone in one direction, and I had to watch my phone

slowly hit the ground multiple times before just landing flat on the pavement.

And, you know, it was an old phone, so I actually lived with the crack for a really long time,

and eventually got a screen and fixed it myself.

But I guess the moral of the story is don't try to text while walking your dogs.

But if you do, and you break your phone, you can always fix it yourself.

Phone breaking stories...well I actually have a few.

I've been known to drop my phones in the past.

But the first time I actually completely broke a smartphone was the Samsung Galaxy S4.

I tend to use a case pretty much most of the time, and I had the S4 for about a year, and

then the case kind of fell apart so I decided to go naked which was a bad idea because I

think within a couple of days of me doing that, I dropped it flat on it's back on a

It wasn't shattered or anything, but it just wouldn't switch on.

Now the cost of the repair was more than the body of the phone so I didn't really bother

And at the time I didn't know Zack, otherwise I would have definitely hit him up with some

Another interesting story of me breaking one of my phones was the iPhone 7 Plus.

I dropped it and although there wasn't really any visible damage, the front facing camera

I took it into the Apple store and they had a look at it and they saw some structural

damage, so they did say that I have to get a replacement phone which costs around 350

But they said that because I had bought it from them and it hadn't been too long that

I had had it, they actually gave me a replacement for free.

Now this is why I always advise buying Apple products directly from Apple themselves.

It's also why I praise Apple's customer service so much – not because I'm a fan boy.

This is Saf from SuperSaf TV, and I'll see you next time.

So the very first smartphone I ever broke was the original Moto X.

So remember, it was actually one of those fist review units I ever got.

So I got it straight from Motorola, I was doing my video...the day after I was go karting

The frame was completely jacked up and the screen was totally shattered.

So I felt kind of bad, but Motorola was cool with it, so you know...that was great.

Another story was...it was actually last year.

I actually killed an iPhone 7 Plus twice.

So the first time was when I was doing my video and I was doing a quick little water

So I took it...this was obviously the first iPhone that was water-proof...dropped it in

a fish bowl, picked it up, and it started freaking out.

Water was inside, the screen was fogged up, specifically the actual camera was fogged

But the good thing was that is dried out, until I was running across the street without

a case on, and it flew out of my shorts and smashed right into a curb and, again, totally

So, you know, in like the last 10 years I've broken two phones.

[Michael] I'm Michael Fisher and I have broken more phones than even those bad luck schlubs

My most recent casualty wasn't a victim of dropping or shattering for a change...but

You've watched enough JerryRigEverything to know that the LG V30 is water-resistant, but

you probably also know that no phone is water-proof.

Well I knew that too, but I took it swimming anyway...in the salty Pacific.

I got some of the most fun photos and videos of that trip thanks to the V30.

See, when the phone survived all that, I thought it was thanks to my careful fresh water baths.

I thought it could also handle a whole afternoon in a chlorinated swimming pool taking more

A few seconds after leaving the pool, the display went black.

And with the exception of a few flickers the next day, it never came back.

You're not supposed to push it that far, and I admit that.
