I have a thing for courageous dongles

a Free HTML5 accounting package for small businesses that runs offline in their browser
a Free HTML5 video editor that can run offline
a Free HTML5 music production system that can run offline
a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) to teach how to deploy ERP5 accounting
a Free decentralized instant messaging system that everyone can participate without installing anything on their PC or smartphone
a Free blockchain system that everyone can participate without installing anything on their PC or smartphone

lol yeah I'm sure apple is falling over themselves to support that poo poo in a browser instead of an app where it belongs

cases only became a necessity for iphone 5 because it would shatter with even the slightest impact and the casing would scratch very easily and then iphone 6 brought us the camera wart

the 5 is fine and doesn't need a case. the 4 did because they put glass on both sides for no good reason

i can count the number of 4s i've seen with even a crack on the case with one hand

whereas the cracked/scratched 5/6/se i've seen are innumerable, even several coming scratched out of the box

admittedly my experience is anecdotal, but i suggest you consult the internet for many, manifold stories of iphone 5 coming out of the box scratched (along with bent iphone 6 while we're at it)

it's almost like they sold vastly more 5 and 6 models so one would see more of them and therefore see more of them broken...

and with a little bit of thought and analysis you learn that the number broken/scratched is disproportionate to the number sold

now with the iPhone 7 you need a case and a dongle hooray

maybe someone will make a case that plugs into the lightning port to provide a headphone jack and a lightning pass through port so you can listen to music and charge your phone at the same time what innovation

the iphone 7 comes out of the package pre-bent so you think its normal for a phone to bend.
