Uh, not really what planned obsolescence is.

Though I do wonder how much more durable they would be if corning made it 1 mm instead of 0.4 mm thick.

Manufacturers can also improve durability by recessing the screen slightly into a plastic frame, that way when the phone drops on its corner or side on a hard object, it will reduce the likelihood of it cracking.

You’re right, but I couldn’t think of a short term for this. I found ‘bad’ design too broad, and it’s not ‘hostile’ design either.

Probably just designed to fail maybe?
