alt Hacker NewsI thought only poor people used phone cases. Otherwise, what’s the point of having an iPhone Air or any other premium built phone at all?

The ecosystem?
Its a phone, not a tank.
People not using cases on their phone are insane to me. I can't even sit these spaceships down on a non-flat surface without them sliding off. They're the thickness of playing cards.
Similar to: "I bought my phone for identity, for style, for a feeling if being on the technology edge."
Yeah, I bought a phone with a web browser in an ecosystem I like.
I have shorts that I love. They've been repaired many times by my partner. Its pockets developed a hole in a way that sometimes my phone just goes straight to the ground and my rawdog iPhone has a cracked screen and back as a result. Terrible way to save.
I don't know anyone who rocks a naked phone anymore except people like my brother, who only does it because he likes to boldly claim how rarely he drops his phone. Which is funny because he has cracked way more screens/glass backs than I have with my thin minimal cases.
