      Normally I don’t advocate for plastic, but you know… plastic and other non metal materials that don’t shatter as easily exist.

          I like minimalist cases. You can break the glass through a basic case easily. Have multiple times over the years. If “buy a case” is the solution then what’s the point of it being glass. No one will see it.

              I see glass backed phones with cracks in them constantly. It’s definitely not just a me thing. But ok. I haven’t bought any of the glass backed gen for a reason. You people who buy every new version have fun with it.

                  As a neutral observer, you’re the one taking this too personally or as an attack more than they appear to be meaning it to be one. Check yoself.

                  Thats why I tend to avoid posting anymore and just lurk. I agree with you about the glass back and I’ve replace my phone every year. But I sell off the phones the moment I have a new phone and I feel that its worth every dollar as well.

                  I also see alot of people are happy about the usb c change but I dread over it. Honestly, lightning cable is superior. Why? I prefer the cable being fucked, than the port being fucked. But hey, everyone is happy about usbc and ill just let it be. I have my magsafe anyway.

          It doesn’t have to feel cheap and show fingerprints. I love the plastic on the back of my S21, it feels very premium and looks great

        My s22 has a glass back and I really like it. It feels nice, it looks nice, and although mine does have a small crack it doesn’t affect the function of the phone in any way so its no big deal.
