I think if you can go more than a year without dropping a phone at least once then you've just been incredibly lucky. I baby my gadgets to the point of OCD and yet I've already dropped my Nexus 4 once since launch; the pockets of my gym trousers are very shallow and it just fell out when I bent over. I am quite risk averse and REALLY hate putting scuffs in my gadgets, literally I will be incredibly pissed if I drop a naked phone and put a scuff in the housing. If I dropped a One and scuffed the body... This is partly why I don't go quite so nuts over the One's aesthetics, I couldn't use it without a case and I really don't want to pay a premium for something that's going to get covered up.
As grim as the S4's design is, at least it's built somewhat as a mobile device. The One's irreparable screen and unibody are actually pretty damn irresponsible for a mobile device.
I'd love to see phones with fully replaceable casings again, I'd go naked for that in both senses of the word.
