i use the kinda phone case that flips over the phone so that it has a covering. This is useful because it works as a wallet for cards and helps with distraction. Can also fold it and make it stand. Also if dropped, will be protected.
Long story short, I dont drop it because my phone is expensive and im a wuss. i hold onto it. Also got that scratch proof cover over it. It's most expensive version of its brand, and also new.
