I don't think this argument is very convincing.
There's still more than enough space between the edge of the phone and the edge of the screen to allow a case to have a slightly overlapping lip. Cases that work this way are better because they give you a new bezel made of rubber above the screen to cushion a fall.
Now, maybe Apple wants to convince people that a case that doesn't actually protect the screen is a good case. It decidedly is not, but I wouldn't put it past them.
- hombre_fatal 6y agoThough in a tech trajectory where bezels get smaller and smaller, it makes sense to migrate to a Plan B at some point if not now. And perhaps it's better sooner than later to let the magnetic accessory market grow and become the new status quo. The magnet seems nice for other applications beyond bezel though, like snapping to the center of a wireless charger, snapping to your car's holster, helping you realize just how much magnetic dust seems to layer everything, etc.
