I'm still using the 3a, but I've broken the screen at least 4 times. I'm clumsy, but I don't think it's just my fault? That screen is ridiculously delicate.

However, once cracked, the hauntings begin. There are touch controls attached to the display that go haywire, and it would cycle through clicking buttons like Russian Roulette: it called the emergency line twice while cracked, and would just power itself back on when I turned it off. I finally bought a screen protector and haven't had an issue since.
