Apple’s lawyers now have another fly to swat after a California man stepped up with a class action lawsuit over the iPhone 4’s glass. According to Apple, the glass found on the iPhone 4 is “20 times stiffer and 30 times harder than plastic.” Apparently none of this matters when you drop the device on the ground from three feet up.
The plaintiff claims his daughter dropped his three-week old iPhone 4 from that height and the thing busted. In the lawsuit, he claims that “months after selling millions of iPhone 4s, Apple has failed to warn and continues to sell this product with no warning to customers that the glass housing is defective.” His iPhone 3GS survived several similar incidents with no damage, so in his mind, the iPhone 4 should, too.
