minus-squareNotamoosen@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·13 hours agoKnowing it’s so easy to repair, do you think it’s worth bothering with a case and/or screen protector?
minus-squareUndergroundGoblin@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 hours agoYou defentently need a case for the FP5. Without its very slippery.
minus-squareRogueBanana@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 hours agoIf you hate cases so much, sure. But why create e waste and waste your money when you can avoid that by using a case?
minus-squaresudneo@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 hours agoFWIW, I have the FP3 for now more than 4 years. I have only replaced the battery 6 months ago. A case would have been extra waste (to produce the case itself) in my case, and probably will be trashed after as it might not fit the next phone.
minus-squareRogueBanana@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 hours agoIf you can keep it safe then cool. I cannot take that risk as my current screen protector is already cracked a little within a year lol.
minus-squareLazhward@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·8 hours agoI don’t bother with a case for this reason, haven’t broken anything so far. Just replaced the battery a couple times.
