Yeha I’m talking about a decent spigen or something ideally. I can’t really speak to the phone condom things but I’m sure there’s some improvement even there, if only slight compared to a proper case.
Nothing is completely protecting your phone from everything of course, and if you drop it screen first on a rock you’re probably gonna have a bad time, but those drops are much less common than dropping it on a flat surface where the corner will always take the initial impact.
