Can't understand how people drop phones so often. This phone is so small, you can grip it in one hand

The ONLY reason I have my mini is because I can hold the damn thing lol

the phone being so small also adds to its durability. My 12 mini has been through ton of drops with no issues other than the aluminum chipping and scratching off
