I've always wiped down my gold 6+ with CaviWipes too, but I'm nervous that it will scratch the Jet Black.
I wouldn't use Caviwipes. The ones I am familiar with contain bleach. That will ruin your screen and may harm the aluminum. Alcohol wipes should work unless you come into contact with C diff (if so, maybe leave your phone in our locker).
If you are using our phone while working with patients, you should probably wipe it down every day.
I know there are tons and tons of case threads so I won't start a new one! I am looking for a minimalist case, but something that still shows the back of the phone (at least somewhat) and has a bit of grippy to it. I want to keep my phone naked but its just way to slippery!!! So something minimal, close to naked but provides me some grip!
Ideas guys and gals??

I love this case, but this makes me angry. Now I'm thinking about just getting a leather case.
The black looks brown if you put it on a silver phone. Im going to return that one. If my phone was black I'm sure it would be perfect.
I actually have a container of CaviWipes(TM) with me right now. Active ingredients: Didecyldimethylammonium chloride, ethanol and isopropanol. It does not contain sodium hypochlorite.
Apple recommends only cleaning the screen with water, but I have never noticed any problems from using these wipes on my screen or on the aluminum. I'm unsure of whether they will scratch the Jet Black finish though.
I'm not very familiar with didecyldimethylammonium chloride but it doesn't seem to be as corrosive as sodium hypochlorite. Plus, CaviWipes contain only 0.76% didecyldimethylammonium chloride where bleach can contain between 5.25% and 8.25% sodium hypochlorite.

This is what I use on all my Apple products;

I am glad there is no bleach. Not sure about the other stuff. Do you think rubbing alcohol would work? That is usually included as a screen cleaner in SP kits. Now that the phone is waterproof, you could also wash it in the sink with soap and water.
Just a thought...
Currently torn between the Apple Storm Grey Leather or Ocean Blue Silicone for my 7+. I'm a fan of the leather cases and had the saddle brown in my iP6, but really like that blue.
Currently have the ocean blue on my 7+ ... I like it.
I'm ashamed to admit I walked away from my carrier's offer of a case (49.99) and a screen protector (39.99) for the bargain price of $90 and wandered into the dollar tree. I got a glass screen protector for a 6s that fits perfectly (and looks a lot like the Belkin one except mine covers the entire screen) and a silicone / hard plastic dual case that, with a little dremel work on the camera lens, works perfectly. $2.50. And I actually like the way it looks. Black on black on black with some horizontal texture to make it less difficult to drop and give some visual interest.
I was planning on switching it out but I'm pretty content to be honest.

I like the Caudabe Veil XT that I ordered. Great fit, good cutouts and protection for camera lens. Far better grip than naked phone. Only con is that the rose gold color is more brown than I would like.. I wanted it to be more of a pink color. I may try Peel if it comes out with the blush color for the iPhone 7 plus.
So far I've picked up the Apple leather case, slick wraps, and tech 21 mesh.
I'm returning the tech 21, it's too big and bulky.
Going to try and get a refund for my slick wrap, install went horrible (twice).
The Apple leather is by far my favorite! The feel, size, and buttons on the case are all reasons I love it.

I have never gone for an apple case as they are too expensive. Here are some cases I bought
Got the two Spigen cases last week. The Liquid Armour for my phone & the Liquid Crystal for my wife. The Liquid Armour is possibly the best TPU case I have seen. It fits perfectly, holds tight, and has just the right amount of lip to keep the screen & camera from being scratched if you lay the phone flat.
The Liquid Crystal feels more like a silicone case than a TPU case. When you hold it, the edges move (unlike the Liquid Armour where the edges hold firm) and the texture is more slippery. I understand that is the nature of having a clear case, but as someone who is very tactile conscious, I would have tossed the Liquid Crystal immediately, but my wife is fine with it.
I moved away from those and, personally, prefer a naked/open back to show off my skins better. and the added thickness of the skin is more than enough than I'd want.
Is that the newest one? The one with more layers of protection?? Is it thicker than the others? My husband swears by his UAG cases also!
No there's another one that a tad bit thicker than this one that offers more protection. This one is thick enough as is.
I tried both the uag plasma and the monarch at an att store today. The monarch looks bigger but on the phone actually feels slimmer than the plasma case. It's weird because looking at it it just appears like some big hulking case. I ultimately walked out with the plasma though because I loved the look of the ice clear on matte black. Also the monarch is $60 which is a lot more than I was looking to spend for a case.
