the pixel 3a is made with non-gorilla glass. didnt we learn like 10 years ago thats a bad idea on a phone? my keys scratched it up in a single day and the whole thing shattered within a couple of weeks. garbage. edit: i know people are saying its dragontail which is supposedly as strong as gorilla. well empirically speaking, i can say that is false; the same key scratches my pixel 3a easily but doesnt leave a mark on…

As long as they don't, I'd much prefer we went back to the aluminum unibodies of the HTC M7-10 phones. They were gorgeous, in addition to being durable.

By the same token, didn't we learn 10 years ago that cell phones and keys are better off in different pockets?
I'm sure this applies to many phones (haven't tested specific ones) but the glass screen protectors refused to scratch for me, I tried screw driver tips, razors, as hard as I could against a flat desk.
If I applied enough concentrated force (or jabbed it) it would brake as expected, but anything short of that left a barely visible mark, if anything. I have seen them scratched, but it's not common.
I say throw a screen protector on it if you can and don't worry about it.

I have no idea why the industry switched from aluminum backs to glass. I thought the whole point was to enable wireless charging, but some of the phones don't even support that.

I'm not really sure what people are paying for when they get those $800+ beasts for phones. When I use a friend's I can tell they are higher quality; either they feel more fancy or load apps more quickly. But it's marginal like the difference between a workstation and a gaming PC.
I think more people should try out budget Android lines. One really nice benefit is they only contain the technologies that have proved themselves. This article focuses on headphone jacks but there's quite a lot of silly phone tech that comes and goes in the name of marketing showmanship.
