It's quite unprecedented.

If they were truly confident, they would include drop protection in their warranty.

    maybe they want you to drop it and buy a new one

      The only phone I've ever been able to trust without a case is my Galaxy S24 Ultra. I go on iphone / android cycles, and iphone always easily gets scratched up. My Android phone has never had a screen protector or case and no scratches after almost a year.

        Phones are entirely too slippery to use without a case. I go as minimal as I can, but case, screen protector for the front (and camera lens) is a must for me.

            Please don't be a dumbass & drop your phone following this marketing 🤣🤣

              I have never used a case since going to Android in 2010. Over 30 devices and only one incident. The one phone that did break was not broken by me and the way thar it broke, a case would not have helped as someone dropped something directly onto the screen. Smartphone manufacturers should not design devices with trash materials and assume everyone will just use a case anyway.

                I was just in the Apple Store in The Hague (Netherlands). All of the iPhone 16 series have scratches on their back.
                So, I don't know what Apple is trying to do here, but using a new 1000+ EUR phone without case is kind of risky.
                And also, you loose more money in the reselling/trade-in process. The price difference between a category A and a category C second hand iPhone is quite big.

                      They need the extra sales so of course they will recommend you ways to break your phone so you can buy more of their phones lol

                        glass is glass...

                          "without a case" correct me if im wrong.
                          Apple wants your money wether your phone slips away from hand by accident and it cracks, shatters Apple Inc still dont care about that, put quarter of your salarity to repair .
                          The guarantee never gonna help you. only helps you when you got the phone which is manufacturing error.

                          Always put the case, in Home too to save your money for future plans.

                              Yes, instead of spending on a cheap ass case they want to drop it and come to them for a hefty price repair.

                                Anonymous, 26 Apr 2025no case, no screen protector. Love to have my phone nakedThat's why I see so many of you on the street with phones shattered 90%. Zero logic.

                                  why so many comments about pathetic case ? just bcos it is about scr-apple ? 🤷‍♂️

                                  if it would be oppo how many comments would be here?

                                    NeonHD, 25 Apr 2025I think it's generally commonsensical to put on a case... morei never take case off even at home..

                                      I always use a case and the pre applied screen protector (or the cheapest tempered glass one available). I don't care about micro scratches at all but I do care about dents and warranty.
