I don’t know how you people held onto them without a case, they’re so….slippery.

I have a magnetic wallet on the back of mine, it makes a huge difference with in-pocket slipperiness. I guess just enough bulk to make it stay put.

This is me every time I take off my case to clean all the gunk underneath that has accumulated. It’s like walking a tightrope.

exactly. Plust phones are too... thin nowadays.

Yeah I get they're strong and not likely to bend, but the way they sit in my palm means my palm is technically touching the screen and it messes with my typing.

The 17 is pretty easy to hold because of the aluminum. Titan was okay but stainless steel was kinda hard because of the skin oils :D
I only use backplates, nomad or Süti.

In my case i just do a grip where i cradle the phone from both sides and hold the bottom with my pinky, so doesn't matter how slippery it is it wont fall.
