On £1200 phone yes
I don't like using cases, only a back cover for my Fold 2 when traveling. Have a protective skin/protector back and front...this is the way.
I don't know how people don't get their screens all scratched up, if they don't use screen protectors. As soon as put my phone in my pocket the screen gets scratched, has happened with every phone I owned.

I'm not keen on getting mine out, particularly whilst in mixed company. It stays away in the case just in case I do drop it. So far, for the last 2 years I have manged not too but have still ordered a new case.

By the same token, I've often wondered how people manage to trash/break their phones so much. Do people have pockets full of sand or something?
Personally, I don't use (and never have used) any screen protectors or cases. I've never once managed to break any glass. My current well used Note 9 has one very small mark in the display glass after ~3 years. Can't see any reason I'd want to stick anything extra on my phone.
Funnily enough my phones usually get trashed. Knocked out of my hand, dropped etc. Had my S10+ since launch and it still has the screen protector it came with out the box. Bought a Torro leather case for it and the phone is still mint. Even though its been thrown down the road a few times.

I've gone for Graphite as well because why not
I'll be shoving mine in a Spigen case though - I really liked the colour anyway (actually liked the blue but thought it might be more of a pain to sell if I got rid mid-term) but I decided the exclusive colour would give a bit more time for the reviews to appear and I can cancel if they were terrible but looking good so far!They come with a pre-applied screen protector or at least all the recent Samsung phones have

What do you keep in your pockets that scratches the screen? I only put my phone in a pocket that is just for the phone for example and has never been an issue
Mine previously have yeah but I always take them off because I don;t like how my finger rubs against the edge of them.

Now that's a fair point! come on reviewers get to work, we want the usual results from Exynos and Snapdragon ASAP.
Not sure if this 10 % discount code has been used as I have given a few out but you can try NTBD9WTD3, hope it works mate. Some discount codes seem to only work in certain browsers so give it a try
Yeah looking at the price with 10% off, £430 off for my phone and I'll be flogging the earphones, friend of mine even said night be interested in Disney for a discount.
Just really want to see where Exynos stands battery life wise, I'm fine if it's 10-15% off Snapdragon performance wise. Suppose can always return it after 14 days if its a lemon and stick with my current phone.
screen protectors been a standard from factory on the S models from some years now. Maybe not on the other models

Spigen PPS 45w charger arrived, rather nice piece of kit, solid quality feeling, more so than the Samsung official chargers. And a thick braided USB C cable included too, although it's a white cable so I won't be using it for anything that's visible
Had to look up what PPS was, didn't realise that was a new standard introd a couple years back. Less heat, more efficient and faster charging and better for the battery health.
Wonder how quick 5000mAh will charge compared to the 4000 at 25w I currently have with the S20.

I generally try to keep my phone in one pocket and keys/wallet in the other but sometimes I accidentally end up with the phone ending up in the same pocket as the keys especially if I'm doing something where I'm using the phone as a torch and holding something in the other hand and then end up putting it away again after.

That Spigen charger looks good so cheers for the review - think I'll order but likewise would prefer black all round

I usually leave it on until it drops off or looks rubbish. I think the last one lasted around a year. Been naked ever since. I have a spare I got free from Three but really CBA.
