why bother when it's just going into a saddle brown* leather cover?

*this specific colour not because it is a fashionable or aesthetic choice, but rather since it's closest to the natural, untreated colour of leather :spergin:

not really. natural leather is more of a light tan, almost pink. the beige color they made for a bit was actually closer.

but now they make bright orange which is the best color

idk what ur carrying but phone wallet and keys have never been a problem in 2 pants pockets. u just stick the keys in one and the wallet and phone in the other and you never have to worry about scratching. also women scratch the poo poo out of their phones when they throw them in their messy purses all the time so that wouldn't really provide any benefit

it’s about not experiencing and so not knowing the advantage of purses before using one you dull shits. pants may work for you, sure, but they plainly suck for storage

if you're EDC is just plopped into your pocket with your phone, it's not tactical. only exception is pocket sand, which should be in the non-phone pocket.

they're practical if the wearer isnt carrying a daily carry load out with like, 5 flashlights but this concept is lost on many many men. ive always been bulk adverse so its personally not a problem

cases are essential for phones after iphone 4s due to their inferior design and substandard components

iphone 5 or later users have gotten desensitized to scratches and cracks and think that they don't need a case as a result

if you need a case to not damage your property then that sounds like a problem with you

when iphone 5 and later come out of the box with scratches you really can't blame the user for such a defective product

this is to say nothing about how they bend with normal use now too

lolling at the idea that a phone bigger than a 4 is unholdable as I enjoy my 5/6/7 models with no body damage or cracked screens

about once a phone I get a small case knick after about 18~ months thats unnoticeable, and ive never broke the screens

maybe treat a $700 phone better than your $10 velcro wallet idk

we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.
the camera bump exists because iphones form the 6 on have been designed to require a case for normal use.

look at that big honking wart on the iphone x and tell me that poo poo wasn't meant to be hidden
