I really need to question the resale value argument. I'd say resale value has more to due with timimg than cosmetics. A lightly scratched caseless iphone 4S sold a month before the iPhone 5 was anounced probably had a higher resale value than a pristine cased 4S sold the day after the anouncement. Another factor to consider is do you earn enough of a premium in resale over a naked iPhone to recover what you spent on cases. Looks like your planning to spend well over $100 on cases. I have a hard time believing that one or two years from now you would be able to sell that iPhone for a $100 more than someone selling a slightly worn naked phone.
Replaced for $50.This might be my first time going naked full time as I bought Apple Care Plus so if the screen gets scratched the phone can be replaced
2 years of worry free damage protection and warranty.![]()
I heard the iPhone 5 is tougher so it would be more safe to go naked![]()
I shattered the back of my iPhone 4 and 2 weeks later shattered the front. considering theres pieces of glass on both sides I think ill go for a sleek case this time around. My luck with iPhones isn't so great
Naked is the only way. We already know that iPhone users get laid more often than users of other brands. What many people don't realize is that going naked helps you get laid even more than regular iPhone users. Why might you ask? Well...
1) Going case free signifies confidence. You don't need to have a case because you are confident you can stop your phone from plunging into the ground.
2) Going case free proves that you are physically and mentally mature. Other phone users drop their phone because their muscle-mind concentration isn't strong enough. You on the other hand, are strong.
3) Going case free means that you know how to treat something beautiful. After all, Sir Ive didn't spend countless hours making your iPhone the best in its class just to have you cover it with a $12.99 piece of plastic.
I could go on and on. Whether conscious or subconscious, others do judge you based on how you display your phone. If you want to get laid more, going naked is your best bet.
You guys are wild. I always wrap it up. Although, this week, for the first time ever, I'm raw dogging my iphone 4, since the 5 will be here soon. I must say...it...feels...better. No way I could risk it with a new phone. Maybe a year from now i'll be familiar enough with it that i'll go unprotected.
