I love the thin, natural feeling of the iPhone. Any users here used it for a while without a case? Any scratches? Any shatters? Apple claims that the iPhone's glass is superior to normal glass, and not prone to normal everyday scratches.
So cases yes, screen protectors no? Have you guys accumulated any scratches from not using screen protectors?
I think I'm going to bite the bullet and get an Otterbox Defender: has anyone else used one of those and, if so, how much bulk do they add?
I would definitely recommend a case. My wife just knocked my iPhone off the kitchen table and it fell on its corner on the tiled floor.
Fortunately, I had it in a case so the only damage was a slightly deformed case on the corner, but if I hadn't I think I'd be having to pay for a replacement phone!
I've got a Switcheasy Nude ultra clear on my phone and it is hard to tell there's a case on. It's great apart from one (fairly major) problem: It scratches as soon as you look at it (very similar to the fronts of the old iPod nanos). I'm sticking with it until it looks completely horrible and will then change it

Is the incase slider a worthy case to protect the iPhone 4? I've used them on the iPod touches that I have owned. The only problem that I saw with the incase slider going onto the iPod touch was that it is hard to take off.
Yes. A lot.
But in a good way.
I like the Otterbox Commuter
This past week, I've gone naked. I actually miss a case because its easier to hold in my man-hands
I'm the only one I know who wishes the next iPhone was considerably bigger (EVO or bigger) so i could hold it better
Defender adds a lot of bulk. I had one, but got rid of it. I couldn't get my phone in my pocket.
just saw the post above about adding bulk. It definitely does. The rubberized case makes it a little difficult to get it in and out of my pocket. It's something you get used to, though. It would probably take a full submersion for any significant amount of water to get to the phone, and dropping it doesn't phase it at all.
