Argh I hate those bumps. My phone has one and it can't lay evenly on any surface because of this >:(
A lens (the bottom one that hits the ground first) cracked the first week I got my iPhone 16, setting it down on a glass table.
Its a hairline crack, but still.
And it was in a case, but the bump is so freaking big the camera barely sticks out.
Meanwhile my old HTC and Razer phones (and old iPhones) never had this problem... Oh, but I forgot, they were a millimeter thicker and non-rectangles, therefore unusable?
Blame your non-square ass hands!
My current phone has a slight camera bump but it has less thickness than the case so that's no problem for me. The thicker bumps are not acceptable IMO. Although I don't care quite as much about that as I do about the hole punch in the screen for a selfie cam. My current phone also has a bezel selfie camera like in the civilized old days.
I always have used a case because of this shit for the last 10 years when the camera bump bullshit started.
