It always bothered me that manufacturers use an expensive design just for the users to hide it in a case. Almost 20 years ago there were phones with exchangable bodies. That was ideal, and I wish Apple would offer something like that. An alternative could be a plastic screen on the phone, as many people are using tempered-glass protectors anyway. One you have a glass protector, it shouldn't make any difference whether the phone uses glass or plastic on its screen.
- chilmers 3y agoPersonally I never use a case on my iPhone precisely because I want to enjoy the premium feel. I don't know if I'm luckier than the average person, but I've never broken or seriously damaged a phone by dropping it (and I have dropped my phone on various occasions). Especially with modern iPhones, they really seem pretty robust. The most fragile part is the screen, and that's not covered anyway.

- nightowl_games 3y agoI use a spigen case with a tempered glass screen protector. Its a level of safety that I consider critical. Wearing shorts, go to sit in a small car, slippery small phone falls out. Leave phone on end table, toddler throws it. Fall off bicycle, etc
