Also, itβs pretty false. Apple already did it with the iPhone 5C and the plasticky aspect was about the only positive thing in the reviews of this phone.
Apple largely have the competence and the marketing power to make everyone believe that their premium plastic is amazing. In fact, they managed to make us believe that for glass which must be one of the cheapest materials on earth to produce.
That's parent's point, don't use glass panels on the back of a phone.
I put half of the blame on reviewers promoting the idea that glass is "premium" and letting phone makers get away with this design choice.
