      I love rugged electronics. Seeing something that I instinctively think of as fragile being made tough is poetic to me.

      I have a friend in Finland that once drunkenly drove a nail into a log with a rugged phone. It was amazing

        Yup sounds like something he would do lol.

        It is interesting to think about how we prioritize looks over durability so much when it comes to tech.
