Re: Note 4

Making a phone thicker to add a bigger battery is sensible. The idea of making a phone thicker to incorporate the features of a case is not sensible for several reasons:

- a plumber will want a thicker case than an office secretary

- a damaged or scuffed case can be replaced. For next to nothing.

- a lot of the market will want to choose a case in a colour or design to suit them

- people want different features from their case. Like Lee D I use a kickstand on my case, others dont. Some people use wallet cases, I don't.

If you try to incorporate every feature that every person want from a case into the phone, it'll not be an optimal product for anyone and it will sell very few units.
