Before I highlights the simple steps on how to prevent your android device from being bricked, we have to have a full knowledge of what bricking is all about. so read about Brick. Now that you have the basic knowledge about bricking. However, you also find terms like "hard-brick" and "soft-brick" used, which makes the term "brick" less absolute: A soft-brick is something you easily can recover from (count it as a "temporary paper-weight", mostly by software-based solutions (e.g. re-flash your phone) while a "target brick is rather meant in the way the original term points to. Still, technically spoken, even a "hard-bricked" device could be "unbricked" -- but mostly this is more expensive then getting a new device. As for the warranty declaration you quoted: For a normal user, it's almost impossible to (hard-) brick his device.

Almost always you can boot your device into some fall-back mode where it is at least recognized by some "flashing software", so you could simply flash another/the original firmware back.
