After much deliberation and faffing around I was convinced I wanted the 11 Pro. And then I realised it’s not 5g compatible. Which is probably more of a stumbling block than the camera stuff. And buying a more recent phone probably fares better for potential resale/longevity.
The next question is what do outdoorsy people use as their phone cover of choice? Was always happy with a glass screen protector and a gel case for my 5s and then SE, but if I’m potentially spending £500 on a phone, I’d quite like to wrap it up a bit better! I’m also an electrician so the phone will be in less than ideal environments for most of its life.
I have a 12 mini that lives on building sites without a case. It's got a few dings in the metal surround from falling on harder metal objects but the back and screen are very durable and don't show any signs of wear. I don't ever keep the phone in a pocket with any other stuff.
That gives me hope tbh, although will probably still end up putting a gel case and screen protector on. Because my dumb arse will flog myself until the end of time if I damage it without a case on.
