    I actually like thin phones. I find them easier to hold, but I would gladly sacrifice the camera hump for a completely flat back.

      Before looking for thin phones, look for phones that don’t have a glass back so that not having a case is an actual option.

        They still have glass fronts man. Five-ish feet drop onto the screen against concrete with no case? Doesn’t matter what the back is.

        Glass backs mean that almost any fall will damage it, but non-glass backs only eliminate cases if you can somehow ensure it never lands face down or on a corner.

            But we just HAVE to have glass backs it’s the ONLY thing that makes phones feel PREMIUM! 😤 ~phone companies

        That’s not an option anyway. Metal scratches and dents too easily for that to be viable.
