"And compared to the 4/4S’s glass back, it should prove far more durable...this is a phone that was meant to be used without a case."
I won't be holding my breath on that one. iPhones have always been more fragile than most comparable high end phones.
Anecdotally, I rarely see uncased iPhones in the wild - and I don't expect this to change anytime soon.
- panacea 14y agoAnecdotally, I had the first iPhone from day 1, inherited a 3GS and been sporting the 4 since it came out. I've never used a case and the worst damage that's happened was a stuck lock-screen button on the 3GS after years of use. I do see lots of people with cases, though I suspect they're for bling and to for the sense of peace-of-mind that they're protecting their shiny object.
- rimantas 14y agoMy first iPhone 3G, I used it without a case. When I got 4/4S I got a case for them, for the reason that can be amusing: those models got a pretty decent camera so the case was meant to prevent scratching the glass covering it. iPhone 5 got sapphire cover on the lens, so I intend to go case-less again.
