I prefer not to say but risk analysis is part of my job. I use a case but not really due to risk but due to the fact that I like color and black/white would just not do. I bought a purple, minimalistic case and have a pink one on order.
 
Rigger, do a lot of work at heights for the major network providers here in the UK
 
Liaison for a hospital in NYC. Naked, but I do use an Oakley sun glass bag to rest it on my desk when at work. This phone looks too sleek to hide it in some case.
 
Bank Manager. Typically I ll use a case till I get bored but eventually it comes off. I get bored quickly. Heres what Ive had thru out the years:

3G - Belkin case but took it off after a few months

4G - used a white bumper till it got dirty from keeping it in my pocket and touching it with grubby hands

4GS ( was a replacement for my 4G didnt upgrade) - Elago slim fit case I bought from Amazon

IP5 - no case yet but ordered a bumper from amazon.
 
No case. My iPhones have been naked since 2007. I do get a leather "pouch" type case for going in my pocket but using there is no case.

I.T. Business Analyst but starting Physician Assistant school next year so I might change my tune.
 
Teacher. Can't exactly text while I have kids in the room so sits in my pocket and don't need a case. Don't ever use one. I like the feel of the phone without and I'm careful enough with it.
 
Not in all cases, but in general, in my own experience, I find that the higher pay grade x the more fulfilled people I personally know rarely focus on , care much about, or discuss "things" and focus mostly on / discuss ideas. Most of the top earners I know do not have a case, unless it is a case with a brand or company they own or created.
 
Business owner and technology consultant. I never case it. I prefer the thin feel and the way it fits in my pocket.

I also view my smartphone as a tool rather than as a relationship :)
 
Interesting question, I do operations and program administration for a philanthropic investment company, no case.
 
SAR helicopter pilot, and I use a case with a flap to cover the screen. Don't want it getting scratched and don't like screen protectors.
