Do y'all remember the days when you dropped your phone and it exploded into 3 or 4 pieces? ๐Ÿคฃ Those were the good days.

Three. Battery, cover and the rest. Weirdly, no damage to the plastic display. How? I guess it was the ~~weather~~ bezel

And when you scratched up the back you bought a new one for $12. No $200 glass or machined aluminum cases that we put $35 covers on just to protect them from every day use.

Well, it was plastic. Pretty hard to crack plastic like glass

Three or more. My Nokia 3310 exploded into five pieces. Front plate, keypad rubber thingy, phone, battery and battery cover.

Huh, totally forgot about Nokias bursting into the rubber keypad and the front plate too!
