Apple Rules , 28 Aug 2023what? scratches quickly?? That's nonsense. everyone knows that. it can break but it do... more- I see enough working retail to know they're very optimistic about scratches. Or at least, I've seen plenty of phones with them. None mine, because it strikes me $3 is better than testing it on my device. Just takes a little sand or similar.
- No, because I do my research. Frankly speaking, even if it were bad for the battery, I don't have too much negotiation to do there. Hell, I'm a Qi addict. Which, is a sacrifice I knowingly make.

I wouldnt want to use a case but these glass sandwich phones are so damn slippery. I would have probably just put on a vinyl skin to get some grip if I didn't get a cheap silicon case in the box!

The type of case should have been a multiple-choice option.
My phone case is Leather, Flip and Kickstand all-in-one.

so long as they keep using glass i'll keep getting a case and as long as the screen is reflective i'll keep getting a matte protector. i want to see what i'm looking at and keep it one piece. glass is the most stupid idea they have i would prefer they even use plastic if they really want me to go without a case.

YouTuber Flossy Carter gets most of his phones from Giztop, and his X Note came with a pre-installed screen protector too.

My AliExpress phones were from Mi Global Store and Fantacy Technology. I always got them SEALED. Giztop doesn't sell sealed boxes, but the phones I bought there did not come with screen protectors pre-applied either.

mithril2001, 29 Aug 2023you buy every 2.4 months new phone. admit that you buy used phones and your story makes sense... moreYou're projecting. Out of all the phones I have bought since 2010 (over 30) only 3 were used. One purchased from my brother that had the Nexus 5 less than 2 months, 1 was a Moto X 2014, I think it was released for about 6 months before I bought it and another was a refurbished Xperia C4 Dual. I have sold a lot of used phones over the years though. I don't intend to brag by saying I have bought a lot of phones. It's an unhealthy and expensive habit, but... I don't like when people make up trash like "admit you buy used phones". You don't know me bro. You don't know anything about me.

SuperSpruce, 28 Aug 2023But a $100 phone will struggle to run the OS itself without lagging and freezing all the time.... morehe meant that you buy a $1000 phone, but you dont use them at full potential. just like using a $100 phone. like scrolling stuff, watching youtube, ticktock, and using whatsapp.

We need a glas protector now for the bump too.
Can't they make the phone then thicker with a bigger battery and/or more room for cooling?
Or put a 3.5mm jack and an SDcard slot in there, whatever, just make it so that the cameras don't get scratched the first time you lay it on the table
