These days some phones are so thin they are even awkward to hold... specially when they have the rounded display around the edges, sometimes I press the touchscreen edges by mistake when holding it. And thin profiles make the cameras stick out, exposing them to damage.

I always end up buying a thick & rugged case anyway.. the thinness even makes me afraid it'll snap/crash easily. I never understood the thin obsession.. I actually was ok with the size of the thick nokia phones from the 90s.
