I did this for a few inserts for like glasses holders and stuff, but not yet for smartphone cases. Wouldn’t it then also expose the top of the edges? Also I think it would probably collect very fast, very much dirt in my pockets :D
It depends how thick the top edge is. You can also enable ironing to smooth out the top and make it less visible.
I don't think it's much worse than your examples with holes in them.
Hmm… the top edge is round, so it might work. Maybe I will give that I try :)
The dirt gets trough the hex-holes to the phone, yes. But I believe in the gyroid infill it will get stuck somewhere in between and then not be easy to clean (depending on the type of dirt :D)
