Yeah, that was the other point for my one. Can’t remember if it was a Symmetry but must have at least been very similar to it because I know exactly what you mean.

I used to pull my iPhone X out of my pocket using the tiny strip of silicone between the charging port and the screen of the Otterbox Symmetry case. After about 3 years, the case broke at that point. I think that was a good long run. This case is not a dual plastic-silicone body like the Otterbox Symmetry, but still feels fairly protective (except for the lens area, but that is the same for almost all cases, including Apple's).

I had a similar Otterbox case for my iPhone Xr. The failure point will be those joins between the silicone and plastic if you plan on taking it out at all. Still, it's a pretty good deal for $6.88.

I have used that one back in August (also from Oneplus to Iphone). It worked, not entirely sure if 100% because super old group chats were empty.

It feels a bit shady because you have to sign up for a subscription but in the end it did work.

One tip, make sure to not login to many times. I got locked out for 48 hours because I kept switching phones in the process.

Hard to choose. The iPhone 11 has a bigger screen and two cameras, but it’s older and it may or may not have a new battery (it could end up having worse battery life than a new SE3).

The SE3 has newer components so it will probably receive support for longer.

Typically when I'm holding my phone I have my pinky supporting the weight of the phone with it resting on my other fingers, this allows my to not have to stretch my thumb to reach all over my screen. Unfortunately this also means that when I quickly pull out my phone to check time, notifications etc my thumb is perfectly inline with the area that the notifications now show up thus blocking them entirely.

Also the fact that there is no way to change it is fucking idiotic, something I'd like to go over and check out what "smart" and "innovative" people they have working at Apple. Surely they allow us to revert back to how it used to be, it was so much fucking better.
