The only way to protect your phone 100% from any damage is to cover it with a very protective case. iPhones offer great cases that come with screen protectors and a complete hardcover case.

He was able to completely drain both phones by gaming and streaming videos, and the iPhone died in about 6 to 7 hours, while the Samsung lasted for about 8 hours. Another impressive feature is that the
