Here are some common reasons why the back glass of an iPhone breaks:

• Accidental Drops: This is by far the most frequent cause. A simple slip from your hand, pocket, or off a table can lead to devastating cracks.
• Impact with Hard Objects: Even if not a full drop, bumping your iPhone against a hard surface, or having it jostle against keys and other items in a bag, can exert enough force to shatter the back glass.
• Direct Pressure: Sitting on your iPhone, placing heavy objects on it, or even bending it slightly in a tight pocket can apply direct pressure that the glass can’t withstand.
• Extreme Temperature Fluctuations: While less common, rapid and significant changes in temperature can stress the glass, making it more brittle and susceptible to breakage from even minor impacts.
• Manufacturing Flaws (Rare): Although uncommon, a minuscule defect in the glass during manufacturing could potentially weaken it, making it more prone to cracking under normal use.
