I paid more for my latest smartphone than I did for my first car. That is to say, the little everything-devices we’re all glued to these days could very well be among the most valuable of our everyday possessions – give or take a wedding ring or Rolex. Maybe because they feel like an extension of our hands (and sometimes brains) we simply don’t treat them with the respect they deserve. Either way, I beat my smartphone up quite a bit and chances are, you do, too, without meaning to or even realizing it.
