I recently received my Switcheasy Nude case. I wanted a minimal case because I'm just NOT a fan of cases.... I always figure that extra $50 in resell value isn't worth holding a fat, cheaper feeling version of the phone.

The switcheasy case is actually pretty cool. 1mm thin and comes with screen shields and stuff. But for some reason I keep coming back to using it caseless. Even though the case is thin as hell and will protect the phone from everyday wear n tear--there's just something about the glass and steel sandwich that feels SO much better no matter how thin the case is.

I already have scratches but it doesn't look too bad.

Anyone here using it without a case since launch? What's it lookin' like so far?
 
LOL, true true....

after this whole free case deal everyones going to hide their iPhone 4s in cheap plastic so stay exclusive and go naked :cool:

scratches = kewl
 
Aside from the Gela skin on the back and sides, Im still rocking the Naked frame.

:D It's the only way to roll
 
I took off my ifrogz luxe lean this morning just to remove the invisible shield (didn't like the rubbery texture) and then decided to leave the luxe lean off temporarily too. It feels sooo much better. Not sure how I'll feel about taking it in public naked though. But I'll see how it does! :)
 
100% naked for 3 weeks now and absolutely no scratches. I wear it in my pants pocket.

My wife has also been 100% naked but has scratches because she throws it in her purse along with the other stuff.

It really depends on how you take care of it.
 
Naked since release date ......

NO scratches!

NO dropped calls!

NO loss of signal!

I just live right! :D

I'm serious guys, rock it naked for a day it's awesome.

*****, slide it on a table on purpose so you won't be such virgins about it being naked hahah

protip:

Don't drop it.

If your near a beach, leave it in a ziplock bag or at the beach house/hotel/street corner. It'll be fine i promise :)
 
I'd only use a case when going to a concert or a game. Otherwise I love the feel of the glass and I haven't had a single scratch.

This.

This is probably the best use for a case. I'll use my Switcheasy if I'm going to a concert, theme park, hiking, etc. For 90% of the time just roll naked. SOOOOOO much better

I should start a "Naked Crew" thread :cool:
 
Not me. I'm using the iFrogz Luxe case for two reasons. First, it has cleared up reception issues. Second, the naked iPhone feels slippery to me, and with a case on I don't feel like I'm going to drop my phone.
 
I use a case :) not for the reception but for trying to keep my phone save. I don't have any scratches even though I used it 2-3 weeks without a case but I don't mind it now (bumper) since the it improves the grip & feel of the phone.

+1! :D

I got a Belkin Vue, put it on and took it off immediately.

Tried one of those SGP leather back stickers, put it on and took it off straight away.

Applied an SGP oleophobic screen protector and removed it with in seconds.

The phone is just so damned sexy naked.:eek:

welcome to the club :eek:. I feel bad for wasting money lol
 
I used a Wrapsol Ultra & Bumper up until a couple of days ago. I just couldn't take the rubbery feel anymore. I'm lovin' the naked glass feel. There's nothing like it! I still use the Candyshell or Bumper if I go out for an extended period of time, though.
 
I've been rocking mine since day 1 naked and it will stay this way. I have 0 scratches/marks/dents.

I always put my iPhone down on the table, or in it's own separate pocket (right pocket) without anything else in my pocket.

I feel no need to baby the device as I have paid 700$+ for it and use it just like any other cell phone.
