Plastic - plastic is what I want.

I have an old Moto 5 that's pretty thin with a plastic back wraps around the sides and snaps on. It has a nice texture that's easy to grip. It's a brilliant piece of functional design. If only they'd given it a better screen/processor I'd be using it today.

Hell, what does almost everyone do with these premium glass phones? Put a synthetic cover in it so you can grip it and give it some drop protection.

    Exactly, glass backs are a bad joke.

    Yep, I've had 2 only because it was the hardware I wanted.

    Oh, they were very nice to hold, sleek, futuristic. And both immediately got cases so I could hold the damn things.

    The only reason we want thinner phones is because of material like this causes us to put cases on them, making them wider.
