2 – Get a Shock Resistant Cell Phone Case.  Do you drop your phone as much as I do?  I don’t know what it is, but it’s always wanting to jump right out of my hands!  I’ve got a military-grade Speck Case on my phone and wouldn’t have it any other way.  It’s also super cute with a pretty design.  Thankfully, you no longer have to forgo fashion for functionality!

3 – Keep that Phone Away from the Bathroom!  A bathroom is an easy place for your phone to pick up bacteria and viruses. {ick} Plus… the steam from your showers can potentially damage your phone and may void certain warranties.
