On top of all that, does no one else find it amusing that manufacturers spend millions of dollars developing ever slimmer and lighter phones that will fit in any pocket, only to see most of them put inside huge cases that often fit in no pocket at all?

I used to work around heavy equipment and at the remote job sites. The average lift for a wind turbine component is 40 metric ton and up. The gravel they lay down during construction will bust a screen in a second, and I used to have to crawl around the equipment to inspect it. I have yet to have damaged an cellphone. I have even dropped my iPhone facedown on the extruded aluminum steps into the construction trailers and the tiny lip saved the screen.I like the mophie line of cases, with the built-in batteries and no screen protection. I still have to clean off the screen and lens. And if I were to drop the iPhone while up tower, no case would protect it. When I go out fishing, I put my iPhone and wallet in a small water-proof bag with a float inside.I think a lot of these extreme cases are a lot of hype. They certainly would not protect my iPhone if it were dropped 230 plus feet from a wind turbine, or run over by a 70 plus ton crawler crane. And when I am out on the boat fishing, I don't want to be called anyway.To me, a lot of these extreme cases are like a Humvee that never see a dirt road, or the one I see in the French Quarter, where you have to park half on the sidewalk so other cars can pass. That gold monster has to be parked against the building so cars can barely pass and pedestrians have to walk in the street to get around it.
