> Now it seems like every phone on the market is a slippery glass rectangle.
I've just broken my Galaxy S7 for this very reason. It looks nice, and it feels slick, but it's heavy and it's slippery as hell. 99% of the time you catch it, but when you pick your phone up 100 times a week... I'm back on my Nexus 5X in the meantime and the combination of matte finish and light weight makes it so much easier to use, not to mention it lasts much longer on a smaller battery.
