Those actually look surprisingly competent. The only cons would be lack of screen protection and the inability to remove the flap. But other that that, this looks top notch.

What’s the point of buying a case if the whole front is exoposed?

There is screen protection… at least on the “Classic Face”. Everything is covered except the scrollwheel and the top.
