iPhone XS Naked phone - how do you put it down?

Backside down.

 

Carefully.

 

Why don't you use a clear super slim case? Like the Totallee ones?

 

I don't worry about those scratches that are inevitable from incidental contact with counters or desks or the cracked screen that will come from the first time I drop it on the pavement... caseless is definitely the way to go. I'd much rather admire the beauty of my phone than protect it from damage.

As long as I don't drop it... it will always be beautiful! That's how I roll.

 

Backside down. You'll get wear spots on the lower edge of the back but I wouldn't worry about the camera. I've never seen scratches or any other sort of damage to them on the phones I've used naked.

 

I always put screen protector on then face down. I use a case if I’m hiking or other phone risky stuff.

 

Avoid marble..
Some of these reviewer.. placing ‘test’ phones face down literally on a marble slab.. and others on cement.. face down.
