i know you want to love apple and all, but a phone that's as slippery as a greased pig isn't all that well designed. if it's something you're supposed to be able to easily hold or set on a table and its shape causes it to slip from your grip or slide off a slight incline into damage, well that's as intentional a design flaw as having the polished back. it adds nothing to the design and regardless of how well you take care of it, it inevitably get scratched anyway doing nothing more than reminding you how old it is replacing it to have a shiny one again.
I put one of those thin nameless rubber sleeves around my evo and i can set it on glass at an 85 degree angle and it doesn't slide off, it sure the hell doesn't slip out of my pocket, and doesn't slip around if my hands are wet or sweaty when i grab it.
so technically imo, the iphone is a poor design because it fails to serve it's primary function in a reliable manner consistently.
- it should be noted, i had my phone knocked out of my hand before i got the sleeve and i was amazed there was no crack or even a scratchidiots
- or even a scratch, but that's the day i got the rubber sleeve, now it's like spiderman, sticking wherever i set itidiots
- in case i didn't make it clear, i'm for cases on smart phones, they're necessary to protect an investmentidiots
