Whereas I lose count of the various phones I've cracked. Never had an iphone, but I've destroyed screens on Samsungs, Motorolas, at least one nexus device... Every phone I insisted on using caseless.

Perhaps I'm just clumsy :)

Low quality glass cracks more.

And I've always bought flagships, there's no reason to think the glass was low quality.

I am aware Apple have good glass, but the number of cracked iPhones I've seen inform me they aren't immune from this phenomenon.

I've gone 3 years with no case on my current phone. The screen is still unscratched and not chipped or cracked or anything. The most obvious wear and tear is actually in the paint on the back of the phone that has faded where my fingers normally comfortably position themselves.

You got extremely lucky.
