Well, with my plan with Verizon, if the phone breaks they just fix it or give you a new one for free I think. They did that with my older phone. I didn't break it by dropping or anything but the screen started to jumble everything up whenever I opened it, and they gave me a new one for free.

They make money with having us buy a phone with a 1 or 2 year contract, where we're stuck with that type of phone for that amount of time. If it breaks or you lose it, they just give you a new one of the same type.
