Our poll results are in, and just about half of you are open to the idea of ditching your case and using an unprotected smartphone.
For as much flack as modern smartphones can get for feeling like unoriginal copies of each other, there are plenty of very attractive models out there, featuring delicate contours, smart lines, and inspiring colors. But even the prettiest phone of them all is going to struggle to stand out when you drape it in a bland, utilitarian case.
Sure, there are just as many interesting case options out there as there are stylish phones, but doesn’t it feel wrong to be covering up a finely crafted $1,000 piece of tech with a few dollars worth of plastic? Especially when we consider just how strong and resilient smartphone glass has become, might it actually make sense to throw a bit of caution to the wind and just use our phones straight as we got them from the manufacturer, no case covering them up?
That’s exactly the question our evergreen editor Mitja shared with you last week, and the response to his poll has been phenomenal.
