Comment S8+ (Score 1) 19

I'm not buying another Samsung phone. I have an S8+. With a case. It fell out of my pocket while under the car changing oil, and the screen shattered. This was a1-2" drop. They claim to be using gorilla glass, but clearly are not. It's 299$ just for the parts on Amazon, who knows what it will be to get it repaired at these places. Why would they advertise for this? Obviously there are too many broken phones ;\

I used to work Search and Rescue in the USCG, and almost every 'overdue boater' case we'd work on getting this very same cell phone information. Sure it was time critical (life/limb, etc) but even then we'd go through the proper channels. We'd just call and give them a heads up we'd need info on this number, they start the process then wait for *us* to meet the legal requirements before handing over the info, which 9 times out of 10 would show us that this 'overdue boater' just forgot to call his wife while out for beers along the coast :P There is *never* an excuse to not use the proper channels.
