That's exactly it... the warranty issues I've seen is people cracking the screen easily or breaking the antenna on the remote off... it's not cheap to replace that remote. It does come with a belt clip and you can flip the belt clip over to protect the screen when not in use... I never had an issue with mine but I always took care of it. If you have a lot of keys on your keychain and throw your keys around or there is more than one person driving the vehicle you have to be carefull is all.

I'm assuming you're talking about the 50.5x style units... older model. The difference in the remotes themselves is the python has rubber buttons and a carbon looking remote case. The viper has more plastic feeling buttons (which I like better) and a blue case on the remote. Identical screens though.

If you're talking about the brand new stuff from DEI the remote are more durable and the antenna is built in rather than external. The units again are very similar... the viper remotes are thinner and sleeker, half grey and black, the cliffords are a little chunkier and all silver, the pythons I haven't seen yet but look to be the same size as cliffords and are all black.

Hope this helps,

Nick
