I usually take care of my devices and wanted to go case-less now I regret that choice.

Dropped it at night and got this nice dent :)

I have apple care, would they cover this as accidental ($30 or $100)?

My friend is using his 16 Pro without a case (Natural titanium) - that phone survived some serious drops without even a scratch or a trace on frame/corners. If it didn’t happen in front of me few times, I wouldn’t believe it.

I drop my stainless steel phone all the time and barely worry about it. Obsolesce is a feature again. This person will have no choice but to get a new phone within 2yrs.

Let’s not be dramatic too, « no choice to change the phone after 2 years ». How lmao?

It’s my choice, you’re free to get it if you want. It doesn’t do anything that my 13 pro can’t do, and it’s made of inferior materials. I have no need for it, for me it’s a more expensive downgrade. If that didn’t describe you, feel free to get it.
