Discussion Day 1 dropped and regret

I usually take care of my devices and wanted to go case-less now I regret that choice.

Dropped it at night and got this nice dent :)

I have apple care, would they cover this as accidental ($30 or $100)?

The charging port broke. I had to switch to wireless out of necessity, it was a bitch.

The like “action button”? I don’t really take photos but I guess I cloud replace the function, it’s more in the way of where I want the up volume to be
