In my opinion, all iPhones are beautiful little works of art - but why are they so slippery??!? Sometimes I want to go caseless just to show off my purty lil' 16e, but then the glass front/back won't stay put if I set it down on anything fabric. I routinely set it down on the arm of my easy chair, and it slides down into the folds of the cushion like I set it on a piece of ice.

Not only my 16e, but in the past? My 13, my 8 Plus, and my SE all slid down or off of everything.

That's why I stay cased (Otterbox for me, thankyouverymuch)

The iPhone glassback slide!
 
I guess that's the same reason I stay caseless - so it doesn't stick when putting it in or taking it out of a pocket 😉
Lol good point - there's got to be a compromise! A case that won't slide off of an armchair, but is slippery enough to slip out of a pocket. 😂
