Funny thing but those cases are also often designed to be held in your hand ergonomically, almost like they expected people to hold them just like phones. And while some use transparent plastics that have an aging colour, my current one is just black. I don’t drop my phone often but it occasionally happens. Haven’t had a single phone break on me so far (knock on wood) but I think the case is to thank in at least a few of those cases (heh).

Plus my case allows me to use a magnetic mount in my car without needing to use the adhesive side and make it actually stick to my phone. It just sits under the case on the back (or if the magnet couldn’t handle going through the case, I could adhere it to the case instead of the expensive phone).

You should probably get a case, after posts so full of hubris like these, you’re probably going to end up dropping your phone soon.
