Metal phones are shiny until you either scratch them or put a case over it. What I really want is a phone that is slim, semi-attractive, and most importantly durable enough not to need a case! I am tired of owning a beautiful, slim phone (Note 3) that I have to bulk-up with a case. My wife has a naked HTC One that is all scratched and dinged up. Just make a slim, durable phone. That is the gimmick i REALLY want.
