First thing I do with any phone is put it in a case. Bezel-less is irrelevant to me, I'm going to put one in place.

'Thinnest phone ever' is similarly meaningless to me for the same reasons. I don't want a phone that feels like I'm going to snap it in half simply by using it.

iPhone user? Because I've never had the need to put a case on any of my Android phones, including me and my wife's $150 Moto G3s that get thrown around by our kids.

And I do get quite some amusement out of a product praised for it's premium design, materials and svelte features always being carried in a thick ugly plastic/silicon bumper case by essentially everyone.

Me neither, but some people just manage somehow to smash a lot of phones at a record pace. No idea how they do it.

There's a market for phone bumpers, and there's a reason for it.

That market exploded dramatically because of "you're holding it wrong". Before then, it wasn't so common to see phones in bumpers.

I remember a lot of people with these cases: http://www.fotokontorbilder.de/bilder300/50202.gif

That's a moot point seeing as there is a large demand for cases for all kinds of smartphones. Most people I know use a case. Last time I checked, it was something like >50% of all smartphone users.

I've had both, and cases go on both.

> product praised for it's premium design, materials and svelte features

Pretty sure I just said the svelte part meant nothing to me. I also really don't give a damn about the design of the phone beyond its size, I care about it's features and using it.

Except phones without bezels are tough to have a good case for since having a lip around the edge to protect from a screen down drop interferes with touch screen use.
