Thin never works for me because I need a case anyway so I don't break it, so the added thickness takes away all the effort that went into making the phone thin.

Thin never works for me because I need a case anyway so I don't break it, so the added thickness takes away all the effort that went into making the phone thin. I'd really like a slightly thicker phone that doesn't need a case. I think overall this would allow for a better experience (for me at least) because it would be part of the design of the phone.
