I’m sure when Nothing sent prelaunch sample packages to YouTubers they received a bumper case, or at least some of them did? Can anyone confirm?
I’ve always bought the OnePlus “Karbon” cases; the carbon fibre/Kevlar blend that snap on tightly. Very low profile and provide great protection in conjunction with a glass screen protector. Lew’s “Latercase” brand makes them for a lot of devices now. I wouldn’t want a typical one of these for phone (1). Of course, we need to avoid covering the back. But maybe something in between a bumper and a Latercase, something very low profile that primarily protects the corners and leaves the back open.
I ordered the Nothing polycarbonate case because it was the only option, but my expectations are low. It’s not how I want the phone to look at all.
I’d rather a rubber bumper, over the polycarbonate but it’s still not ideal.
I’m also going to feel very dumb if my pre-order comes with a free case, having added one to my order. Especially as I don’t even like the look of it.
