Noooooo, people could then see the repairability before buying it. We can't have that!!!!
Is it just me, or are transparent cases more brittle than opaque ones? Like more prone to shattering.
Opaque ones have a wider range of materials to choose from. Plastic is pretty unlikely to break, though. Glass is the only other transparent case and that would be brittle (guess which one modern phones use)
Pretty disingenuous comparison to make. Phone screen glass is much more resistant than normal glass and is much more touch sensitive than plastic.
I'm talking about the back, they do it for wireless charging
Plenty of phones use plastic or aluminum backings that are wireless charging compatabile
I've been lied to, my whole life is a lie
could've used plastic, but I guess that isn't "premium enough"
You know, it'd be kinda sick if someone made a device that had a colored glass case. Phone glass would probably still be too fragile to make an entire Gameboy or iMac out of, but it might be cool at least as a concept item.
