Why? Phones have been thin enough for a long time that you have to put them in a case just to get a good grip.

Actually, they've been getting thicker every year since the 6, believe it or not.

Exactly. I’m still on my 11pro for this reason, already had to replace the battery. I got the 15 as a work phone, it feels very large in comparison, I’m not a fan.

I’d be happier if they push for lighter devices personally. Glass feels nice, but their Pro models can be obnoxiously heavy.
