Toddler throwing things on purpose

How do you deal with your toddler throwing things on purpose? My 2 year old knows he isn't allowed to throw my iPhone or iPad but deliberately throws them almost on a daily basis and happily tells me he threw them. I tried talking to him nicely and beating his hand but he still persists...Im just exasperated.. I don't even bother giving him much of a reaction now...

tell him that balls are for throwing, and play together! phones are for talking, and let him make calls, even if it's pretend play. also, try not to let your phone be easily available to him :) my toddler will throw anything that I say don't throw cause he likes seeing the reaction from me. so I try my very best to not tell him what not to do, but what he can do.
