Most premium smartphones available in the market tend to feature a glass rear panel. While this does offer a more premium look, it does have it’s a fair share of drawbacks. Not only does it add more weight to the device, but it also has a tendency to break. And the last thing some people would want is a device that is breakable on two sides. Which is why some people may want a device with a polycarbonate rear panel, which not only resembles the glossy finish offered by glass but is also more resistant to cracking when dropped.
