As we\u2019ve showed you in the past, there are plenty of ways to break your iPhone<\/a>. Admittedly, some ways are more common than others (most people tend to text while walking slightly<\/i> more than they breakdance).<\/p>\n

So how exactly\u00a0are<\/em> people breaking their iPhones?\u00a0SquareTrade<\/a> released some statistics on how the devices have been meeting their premature demise over the years. They\u2019ve confirmed our rampant walking-and-texting habit by finding the No. 1 reason to be the iPhone \u201cfell out of my hand\u201d. (We have yet to confirm where \u201cfell out of my wind turbine<\/a>\u201d ranks.) And 24 percent of owners either had their iPhone fall from their lap or knocked from the table. This is a significant portion of accidents, but these kinds of things just happen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A separate study by\u00a0mobileinsurance.co.uk<\/a>\u00a0illustrates the top reasons why these broken iPhone screens are often left unfixed:<\/p>\n

\"iphonegraphic\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, all of these reasons are understandable. After all, fixing an iPhone can be very expensive.\u00a0But with proper protection, you don’t need to end up with a busted iPhone in the first place!<\/p>\n

With the NuGuard KX line<\/a>, you can get 360 degrees of protection for your iPhone 4\/4S\/5\/5S\/5C models<\/a>. Our KX cases\u00a0use state-of-the-art X-Orbing gel technology to absorb and evenly distribute kinetic energy and are\u00a0Mil-Spec drop test certified by Quanta Laboratories to MIL-STD-810G U.S. Military Standard for elite protection while maintaining a slim profile. And to protect that gorgeous Retina display, our\u00a0KXs<\/sup>\u00a0screen protector<\/a> is hammer-hit tough with a “3H” hardness scale rating, and can also self-heal from minor impact dents.<\/p>\n

A small investment in the KX and KXs<\/sup>\u00a0will go a long way in not only saving you the heartache of a busted iPhone, but also in saving you the time and money required to fix your iPhone.\u00a0And if you’re a walking-and-texting owner of the Samsung Galaxy S4, weve got you covered, too<\/a>. According to SquareTrade<\/a>, the Galaxy S4 is rated as 7\/10 or “dangerous” on the breakable scale, so get your phone wrapped up in x-treme protection<\/a> today!<\/p>\n

Buy a KX case, get a free cable<\/strong><\/h3>\n

From now\u00a0through March 31<\/a>, we\u2019re including a free dock cable with the purchase of any\u00a0NuGuard KX case<\/a>\u00a0for iPhone 4\/4S\/5\/5S\/5C models, iPad mini and iPad Air. Combine the best iDevice protection on the market with a free cable to ensure your gadgets are always charged and ready to go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
