Eli5 why dont phone companies make smart phones harder to break?
In: Economics
A big part of it is that people keep buying new phones. The primary motivation for people buying phones is mostly based on processing power, screen resolution, connection speed, etc. Basically because their phone was getting old. So current phones are usually just made to be durable enough that for the most part you’re going to be buying a new phone before your old one breaks. Or take the phone breaking as the signal to buy a new one and not be too upset because your phone was getting old anyway.
