Anybody else go bareback?

[Macs4u]

Hi, up until today I have always had back cases for all my products such as iPhone, iPod touch, iPad 1 etc etc

I've just got a new iPad 2 and thought I'd try it without a case and omg it feels sooooo much nicer.

Anybody else go bareback? Am I mad?

I do have a screen protector but may even drop that now.

I have a smartcover and a screen protector. It's great. I carry it in a Targus sleeve.

 

[Looon]

Bareback?
oh I thought this was about something else nvm

 

[allmanbrother]

I've gone bareback since launch day (with smart cover of course).

 

[Dhelsdon]

I do all the time, my girlfriend HATES it!

Oh.. my iPad umm ya I just use a cheap folio case from eBay.

 

[saberahul]

I've gone bareback since launch day (with smart cover of course).

No scratches on mine either.

I go bareback, and it feels quite elegant. I just keep a tight grip because I know what it costs......

 

[BergerFan]

Been going bareback for some months now, with some minor scratches on the back*. My iPad also has minor scratches on the back too, but I stopped caring about that a long time ago. I use a Smart Cover, as the screen is the most important, and that is flawless.



*Obvious joke is obvious.

I have a smart cover.

The only time I keep it on when using the iPad is when I'm using it as a stand so you could say I'm going bareback the vast majority of the time. Can't imagine having something covering it up when using it. Feels great in the hands!

 

[nuckinfutz]

Yup

Bareback with a Smart Cover though I'm thinking of "jimmy'ing" up with some Ghost Armor/InvisiShield on the back.

 

[palpatine]

no chance. ever. this ipad is going to look brand new when i sell it in preparation for the ipad 3 (or maybe migration to android, if the app market beefs up on productivity).

 

[ohio.emt]

If you don't want a case but are worried about it you could go with an invisible shield. I have a I have a X-Men skinit on mine.

 

[JPS]

Lightweight Hammerhead case, front and back. It's great.

 

[Dr Kevorkian94]

i just use a smart cover, but when i put my iPad down on the table i always put the smart cove face down so i don't scratch the back. as for my iPhone i use a slide in case just from my pocket.

 

[boy-better-know]

No way. I use a zagg shield and its great. I put it on properly this time so am happy with it. I use my iPad all the time so it'd be a bad idea for me to go naked.

 

[Matthew9559]

95% of the time I use my iPad it is in the lap position, horizontal or else I would go bareback.

Like this.

I used to use the Apple Case for the iPad, but I stopped using it about a year back because the iPad was just so nice to hold on its own. Been naked for a year now, and it's still perfectly fine. There's a small dent in the back, but whatever, not too shabby for a nearly two-year-old iPad

As for my iPhone, I've never used a case with any of them. Not my original, not my 3GS, and not my 4. And they all still look great!

 

[MonsterRain]

I don't buy my Apple products with the intention of selling them later. I buy them to use them. For that reason? No case. With the iPad, whenever I do get one, at most, I'll just use the smart cover, only for the dust protection. I don't care about the back of the device. I could care less if it becomes one big scratched up mess. I'll never see it.

I've never had problems selling a scratched up iDevice for the same price as one that isn't, as long as the front is still good.

 

[jamesarm97]

I went out right after I got the iPad 2 and bought a Galaxy screen protector and stuck it on the back. It was about 1" too small all the way around, but it is enough to protect the back from scratches when I set it down. It is also slightly rubbery feeling and has a good grip in my hand.

 

[TwinCities Dan]

I do all the time, my girlfriend HATES it!

That's weird, she loves it when I do it!

 

[GoCubsGo]

I much prefer it bareback.

 

[iarti]

I prefer nude iPad. Only got smart cover and sleeve to go.

 

[MallCop]

Smart cover only.

dont bother with a screen protector, they are more trouble that they are worth, i have a smart cover and a sleeve for travel.

 

[jacobson00]

I would rather not go bareback. It is just not safe... So many diseases can happen on the ipad. Just put some protection. Unless you really trust yourself and the ipad
