So how do you share more than 5 photos at a time?  Easy, just select all of the photos you want and then select the Copy action.  Then navigate over to the email app and create a new message, tap and press into message body area to get the new paste menu.  Once you select paste, all of the images that you copied when in the photo album will appear in your message.  Provide a recipient and subject for your email and click send.

Enjoy!

I then went on a search to see if anyone has done any scratch tests on the screen and here are some videos that I found that show the durability of the iPhone screen. Here are 3 videos that I found that show off the durability of the iPhone screen. The first 2 are from PCMag and really put the iPhone through a pretty good test.

So what is my recommendation to protect your iPhone? Invest in a good case to protect the shell of your phone, but I wouldn’t worry too much about protecting your screen. While I have never personally put my phone through a test like in any of the above videos, I have dropped my phone a few times, face first and the screen has survived unscratched.

What are your thoughts?
