Telstra: Here are the top five ways Australians damage their mobile phones

Australian operator Telstra is reporting how their users are finding new “innovative” ways to accidentally damage their mobile phones. According to the carrier’s customer service consultants, the five most commonly reported ways of accidentally damaging a mobile phone are:

Mobile phone in a toilet

  1. Driving off with a mobile left on the car roof
  2. Damaged by water – including dropping it in the toilet and taking calls when in the rain
  3. Sitting on the handset
  4. Dropping a phone – most often on the footpath
  5. Throwing a mobile – either on a desk, in a drawer, or to a friend

As you can see, Japanese may be the most tech advanced market, but Australians can innovate as well. ;)

Not that I have anything against them. On the contrary…
