Anyone use their iPhones...NAKED?!

I have 3 Cases for my 3GS but it always ends up without one. I just like the feel of it i guess (BTW my cases are a Griffin Survivor, Speck Candyshell, and iFrogz Luxe)
 
I'm using my 6+ naked. I have applecare + as well. I did buy a leather apple case that i use on and off but i just don't like the feel of the phone with a case on it .
 
My first 6+ I had naked and knocked it while charging, unfortunately caused a chip on the side near volume.

Luckily developed a home button issue so got a replacement from the Apple store so now I alternate between a clear Spigen case and the apple leather case. I have a brown leather one and pink lol. :D
 
I've tried multiple cases:

Apple Leather
Otterbox Symmetry
Tech21 Impact Tactical
Speck CandyShell and CandyShell Grip

And I honestly don't like any of them - I returned them all. The phone just feels so much nicer to use without a case. Yeah, I'm risking scratches and wear and tear, but isn't the key to enjoy using the phone?

I feel like all the cases detract from the experience of using it - particularly the curved glass on the edges, which gets completely covered.
 
best skin ever on the back....and that's it. Had a bumper on it for about 10 minutes this morning but it sucked so I took it off.
 
It feels better naked! I'm running without a case now until mine arrives. It's fine and definitely feels better in the hand. I just like being more careless with the phone and not having to look at what surface I put it down on. I enjoy the phone experience more with a case.

I have been thinking about getting a skin for the back just for some grip and scratch proof



does the BSE have a nice grippy feel?

I think so. It's pretty smooth, burnt think it's less slick than just he phone itself. If you get the regular one (not case optimized) then it has sides as well that come around and cover the edges pretty well too.
 
My 5S is currently naked and once my 6 arrives, it will be naked as well.

I have dropped my 5S once on asphalt. It has some minor knicks on it, but otherwise it's still in flawless condition.
 
I have had a 2G, 4S and now the 6... 2G lasted me 3.5 years, the 4S 3 years and of course the 6 has just started... And I've always carried my phones naked (not even a screen guard)... And I've never had issues... :)
 
Used my 4S without a case, then after a year I dropped it onto concrete. A couple of scratches but it kept working. I then used my 6 without a case, and dropped* it onto tiles after two weeks. Two scratches on the edges, but it too continues to work.

*I was actually in a motel room, and of course they give you about 0.3 power sockets so the phone was perched on the side of the bed... and slid onto the tile floor :mad:

easy to install?

It's not bad. It's a wet install. I really didn't take enough time and I've got a couple spots towards the bottom that are bubbled but if I'd been more patient I think I could have nailed it. I've had one before that I also had good luck with.

Not 100% naked. Have a tech armor SP on the front and a carbon dbrand skin on the back that I trimmed to leave the top and bottom glass panes exposed. Black carbon on my silver 5S looks slick
