>using a phone case You don't do this, right? Only normalfags

>>62323892
i kind of feel my phone is too thin so the case helps with grip a bit. plus my case has a little indent for putting a metal plate which i use with the magnetic dock in my car

>>62323892
I bought a Note8.
Even though I have insurance for it, i still have a case on it.

Glass back, glass front.


Minimally i'd have to have a vinyl skin protecting the back.

Only normalfags would care about the """""aesthetics""""" of a $1000 messaging device.

I have a moto e3 with the case

10/10 would buy again

my desktop computer has a case and I never move it around

why wouldn't I protect the computer I bring everywhere with me?

What sort of poor fag doesn't use a case? You blow your savings or hit up Money Tree to buy your phone? Only plebs to without cases, usually because they can't afford them.

I have a thick otterbox case. Nice firm grip even when it's wet.

op5 is slippery as fuck and i have a cardholder on it so i dont have to bring a wallet everywhere i go

I got a case for my OP3 for extra grip, because there's nothing more pathetic that a cracked screen.

Besides, all phones are ugly anyway.

Phone is too thin and slippery to hold without a case. It's way more comfortable to hold with a good case. Fuck the thin phone fetish.

generally well-adjusted people don't think in such extreme terms as a case "destroying the aesthetics", OP.

I used to work in a phone store, retail

Cases are a meme, the company made almost no money off the devices. We made like $15 from the most expensive iPhone. While from a case we made the full price.

They push the case meme to keep retailers open.

>made the full price
if he's not going to be accurate then why are we even bothering to talk about this? the nuance of how much money the case manufacturer makes is important because their costs are relatively fixed. if they're pumping out plastic molds then all they needed was to get the mold right and then shit out as many cases as they could as fast as possible. so it doesn't bother them if they only make $0.50 on each case, because the trouble is getting them in front of eyes

1) you don't wear a phone case
2) you haven't added anything to the conversation. you didn't even say that you're a normalfag, so you haven't even made a passing claim that you're a counterexample to the claim the OP made.

you just wandered in and said you have a phone and use a case for reasons even you don't care to figure out. you might as well have posted your breakfast.

How the fuck do people drop their phones? I have three phones in my pocket at once, they don't even have scratches. I handle two phones at a time sometimes, might have dropped one once.

Holy shit, lowest price at Best Buy and Walmart is $15 or $20. Most of the time you can't even find the correct case for your phone either. Amazon and eBay has everything, usually under $10.

If phone makers would come out with a good phone that wasn't slippery as shit glass and metal in a size I could easily use with one hand without always having to reposition the phone I wouldn't use a case. The OG Moto X form factor and materials were ideal.

An ideal phone for me would have a tiny top bezel with the camera sensors and earpiece, no bottom bezel, on screen buttons, and a 4.7" screen. Also it'd have the fingerprint sensor on the side like Sony has done with some of their phones and it would be wrapped in soft touch plastic like the Moto X. I don't even care if it's over a centimeter thick, thinness has been retarded for years now.

>>62323892
I suppose you wouldn't understand when they only thing you can ever drop your phone on is carpet.

>>62323892
I wouldn't use a case if the phones weren't so fucking thin. Also camera bumps. All of that is fixed by a simple case.

No. The few times I dropped it it didn't suffer any damages anyway. And I generally don't drop it. A case would limit functionality as well, by making Qi worse, and buttons worse to press, and making the phone thicker which is already annoying in my pocket.

I smashed up one S8 plus because it slid off my née while I was sitting on a wooden floor. Considering how easily I broke that one without a case I decided maybe putting a case on my replacement might be a good idea. Maybe a case ruins your "aesthetics" but a cracked body/screen ruins the aesthetics more and it's expensive enough to replace even with insurance.

>>62340691
Amazing. The DAC is great. Phone battery lasts around 8+ hours of heavy SOT use. The secondary screen is very useful for stuff like changing songs or just glancing at the time without having to turn the main screen on. And the regular camera + wide angle lens on the rear of the phone are awesome. No complaints from me.

And thanks I'll look at that case. Didn't see it when I did a cursory Google search before.

>>62340806
the screen looks as gimmicky as the pen for the note series

>>62340921
>Second screen is gimmicky
I thought the same thing. Unlike the pen with the note, the screen is always accessible and requires no fiddling around to fully utilize. It's function is simple, but useful I'm telling you.

I originally had the V10. Long story short, I don't anymore.

>>62341051
Wow. Apparently my brain finished that post before my fingers could. I had the V10. Broke it like a fucking idiot. When looking for a replacement, nothing had the features my V10 did other than the V20.
