 @a13b0cb6 PSA: I destroyed my iPhone 14 Pro with an Aramid case. Worse than nothing.

 @381df8fd thanks for the heads up but never heard of those. I got a cheap 0.3mm which only slightly augments the sharp corners of the 14 Pro, which is all I need. I've done well without a case on previous devices.

 @a13b0cb6 **Aramid** fibers, short for **aromatic polyamide**, are a class of heat-resistant and strong synthetic fibers. They are used in aerospace and military applications, for ballistic-rated body armor fabricand ballistic composites, in marine cordage, marine hull reinforcement, as an asbestossubstitute,[1] and in various lightweight consumer items ranging from phone cases to tennis rackets.
