    Yeah, I measure the thickest part of the phone to determine how thick it is. The camera bump is part of the phone.

    I can’t just measure my toenail thickness and claim I am 1mm thick, with a body bump

      Well, you are not expected to grip around the lens, you don’t want to smudge the lens anyway. Hence the lens’ thickness is not that relevant day-to-day, while I do agree that it can still be relevant in certain cases.

        it doesn’t matter where you grip it from. Phone thickness is not dependent on you, the user, just its actual dimensions. Thin it is not

      It’s pretty awful but since it’s centered it at least helps with it being kinda flush while laying on the desk. My fold 5 camera is so fucking big and off to the side of rocks like a mother anytime I have it like that.

    I don’t care how thin it is, I just want one that I can actually afford
