They always ask you to update tot he latest iOS, even if it's an obvious hardware problem. So I always tell them that I'm on the latest one.
Apple went from "wow" warranty experience to a frustrating one in the last 10 years - I still remember times when they were replacing iPhones on a spot with even a smallest problem. But they too big now to give a sh1t.

even with the dampening accessory you still needed repairs?
Seems like a design issue. They didnt provide any way to lock the floating camera in place. To be fair, that takes some money and space and introduces another thing that can fail. I have very little faith that a small external damper will provide sufficient protection. It may extend your mbtf from one ride to 10 rides. I'd mount an old phone to the bike and keep the new phone somewhere safer with the hotspot on.
don't use the dampener, i have it mounted to the OEM GPS cradle.
yes it will be staying in my pocket from now on, i rock ear buds for navigation anyways.
I very rarely use "navigation" on a bike but love moving map to see what unknown roads look like/where they go (and cops).
true. as you said, i could buy an older phone and use it for GPS if i really wanted to.
