The only time I ever see caseless phones is in the movies. Everyone I know protects their phone like it costs $1k to replace it. So I’m curious, is my circle unusual or the norm?

    Case and screen protector. This phone cost me over a grand, and you only need to drop it once.

    Would you drive a car without a seatbelt?

        I keep my phone in my pocket, and stuff will always end up rubbing against it. I plan on either reselling or giving this phone away in the future, so in keeping it as mint as possible.

        There’s already a few noticeable scratches on the protector (S25 Ultra) so while it’s a tough phone, it replaced a Pixel 5 which had a pristine front glass after I was done with it.

        Keeping to the car analogies, they’re like floormats. Not needed, but good to have.
