Samsung Galaxy S9+ - user opinions and reviews

Seems like your review was of how bad you are at taking care of your phones and not an actual review of the phone itself. Mods should remove your comment as it's utterly irrelevant and unhelpful, which is the purpose of a review.

Maybe don't drop your phone 3 to 4 times? What do you expect from glass sandwich phone? Use a 3310 if you're that clumsy.
